If you are reading through the website for Brisendine, Overand, Buster & Bernstein, P.C., then you are looking for information about our firm that describes who we are and what makes us unique. The following excerpt from a local newspaper describing our client's reaction after his trial best captures the spirit of why we formed our law firm:
Outside the courtroom, [he] wouldn't shake the hands of his two attorneys,
T. Scott Brisendine and Jeffrey Overand. "I have to give you two guys a hug,"
[he] said. "You two saved my life." Read the article here.
We are in the business of helping people when difficult circumstances and poor choices have resulted in criminal or traffic charges being brought by the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Scott, Jeff, Brad, and Paula, have all dedicated their careers to defending people charged with crimes such as reckless driving, DUI, assault and battery, sexual assault, and larceny, to name a few. Our empathy for our clients is what drives us to be better attorneys. We have seen how criminal and traffic charges can create stress in our clients' personal and professional lives. Often, the stress is compounded by the fear of going to jail, loss of a driver's license, or the effect of a conviction on a security clearance or background check.
We let our clients know that we understand what they are going through. Then we provide focus for our clients on a course of action, options that are available, legal questions that need to be resolved, and how to get to the best reasonable outcome of their case. Contact us today if you need any help with any criminal defense matter.
