Mr. Kibria is an excellent, client-focused lawyer. Even though our case was small, he took the time to fully understand its specifics and patiently answered all our questions on the process. He made sure he was well-prepared for the hearing, and got our traffic ticket dismissed. Our experience working with him was great, and we would definitely recommend Mr. Kibria’s services for traffic-related issues.read more

Attorney Kibria is excellent. His services were very inexpensive. I checked other attorneys and they wanted to charge me $3500 and up. Attorney Kirbria charged me $600 and gave me a time frame in which the services would be complete.

Mr Kibria is a very outstanding Lawyer he helped me with a recent case of the year of 2022 dealing with a gun charge in the city of Dc which dropped my felony charges into misdemeanor charges with no jail time an a 1 year of probation sentence which after will not be on my record. I highly recommend Kibria as a Lawyer/ Public defender to the future of anyone in need of help. Mr Kibria is very friendly and great on business not once have I had a problem with Mr Kibria he is always there if needed to talk to not that he’s a therapist or anything but also like I said very friendly. So this is my 50,000 star rating for Mr Kibria I prey the best to everyone.!😁read more

Mr. Nabeel Kibria is the awesome lawyer that I’ve come across in react times. He knows his thing as a lawyer, works with his senses and with great respect towards his clients. He’s a good mentor when you have a bunch of questions. Moreover he’s honest, FRIENDLY, practical and his approach towards the case is multidimensional. He’s discussed about the positive and negative outcomes my case upfront; but finally got that COMPLETELY DISMISSED as he’s confident about that from day one. Response times are awesome, just a text away all the time! Definitely recommend for anybody who is looking for the number one lawyer in town! Thank you Mr. Kibria 👍🏻👏🏻read more

Mr. Kibria is hands down the best lawyer in The District. I came to him concerned about my future and worried that things may never be the same for me. He assured me that my case was not too much to handle and that he would do everything in his power to get me a desirable outcome. Well, Mr. Kibria did EXACTLY as he said and got my case a FULL DISMISSAL!! This outcome had about a 6% chance of happening but Mr. Kibria was able to make it happen. I am now able to keep my future in tact and move on with my life. I was so lucky to have found him for my case. He responds almost immediately, updates you on your case whenever necessary, and is the best lawyer I have ever worked with.read more

He was always in constant communication with me via text/email/phone call and always responded in a timely manner even after my case got rescheduled twice. He got back to me as soon as my hearing was over. He got the job done and managed to get my case dismissed. He knows his laws and is very detail-oriented. His fee was fair and affordable. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and family if they encounter a similar situation.Thank you Mr. Kibria! 🙌🏼 😃read more

So I had attorney Nabeel represent me for a case I was told nearly impossible to get off from but given my record being clean and my attorneys good standing with the prosecutors he was able to get my case completely dismissed. I don’t expect everyone to have that kind of out come when facing serious charges but if you are…. He is definitely the guy to go to. He was very personable, super responsive at all times of the day, and knew his stuff. I felt very informed the whole time. As my only case ever I felt confident that I had a far chance as a black man. He did an excellent job and I will reach out to him if I ever need anything else in the DMv.read more

Never been in trouble with the law and had no clue how to navigate the system or even find a trustworthy lawyer.. I felt like a mouse in a sea of snakes. Sure enough, I got bit. Big Time law firm wanted over FIVE TIMES what my case ended up costing me with these guys! I was nieve enough to think it was a deal when they dropped the price a few grand… Stumbled across the website that quickly led to a phone call as well as a good laugh at how much I was overcharged! Saved over $12,000!! Always kept up to date on my case and after. Had to leave a review! Hope this helps someone, God Bless!read more

We choose him to represent after reading hundreds of other good reviews and everything they say is true. We heard back fast after first reaching out and it was a very easy process after that. It was also very affordable for what we were dealing with. Dealing with a few first time gun felonies (a case of entering DC while following VA’s much more lax gun laws) and it resulted in only 48 hours of community service! This could have ended horribly for our family but thanks to Mr. Kibria, it didn’t. 100% would chose his services again.read more

Mr. Kibria Nabeel is one awesome lawyer.I contacted him on my sons case which was a very complex hectic case in which all evidence was stacked against my child. My son was looking at years maybe even some decades in jail for a crime that was committed in Washington DC over the Summer of 2020, which happened to involve police, guns and etc.I contacted Mr. Nabeel one late afternoon after talking to several lawyers who wanted thousands of dollars I didn’t have. At the time of the call I was truly at my wits end. I found him through a Google search.He listened to me tell him my sons case, he had a sympathetic ear, he was understanding, and after reviewing the case he accepted it and had several solutions.He was and is a very professional, very understanding person and lawyer. He was able to give me the ins and outs of what can be done and what he will do, he didn’t make any promises but one, and that was, he would do his best to get my child home as soon as possible.Mr. Nabeel did exactly that. He worked his magic!My son is looking at a very reasonable amount of small time compared to what the Public Defender was talking about. I can’t thank Mr. Nabeel enough.Long story short, if you want a great lawyer that won’t rob you blind for money and will work hard to get you the best outcome, then put your trust in Mr. Nabeel.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM.read more

Mr. Kibria and his firm are amazing. I can’t say enough. Initially I was with a public defender. Although I had met and consulted with Mr. Kibria I decided to stay with the public defender figuring it was all the same with any lawyer. I was so wrong. My public defender was forcing me to eat a bs charge and i basically thought I had no choice but to agree. Weeks later when I was in court ready to eat the charge, Mr. Kibria saw me an asked what I was doing. I told him and he said I was crazy to eat a charge given the facts of my case. He said he would get my case dismissed. He took my case right then and there and requested a dismissal,l. In fact he got the government to agree to dismissal even before I had paid him. He got my case dismissed as he said he would. Unbelievable. He is the best defense attorney in Washington DC bar none. If you need a defense lawyer in dc don’t bother calling anyone else.read more

How to Handle a First Offense DUI / DWI in Virginia

In Virginia, DUI (Driving Under the Influence) charges are treated possibly harsher than in any other state in the country.  For this reason, it is critical to hire an experienced DUI attorney to work on your case and develop a proper defense strategy. In Virginia, a first offense DUI OR DWI is a Class I misdemeanor. In other words, Virginia classifies a first offense DUI/DWI as the most serious type of criminal misdemeanor. As a result, a first offense DUI/DWI carries a mandatory minimum fine of $250, but the fine can be as high as $2,500. Additionally, for a first offense DUI/DWI, you can be sentenced to a maximum of twelve (12) months in jail. If you are convicted of a first offense DUI/DWI with a BAC level under 0.15, you are not required to serve jail time and probably will not serve jail time, however, there are no guarantees of no jail time if the Court believes the facts of one’s case to be egregious.

What are the possible penalties for a first offense DUI in VA?

  • Jail Incarceration (length depends on the BAC level)
  • Up to $2500 Fine
  • 12 months loss of driver’s license
  • If granted a restricted license, you will be required to pay for and install an ignition interlock device
  • 6 points on your Virginia driver’s license
  • Completion of ASAP (Alcohol Safety & Awareness Program) at your expense

We Are Experienced Northern Virginia DUI Attorneys

We have considerable experience representing clients charged with DUI in the Northern Virginia County courts.  When you are facing a drunk driving charge or any motor vehicle traffic offense, you need fast, accurate answers about your situation and the best way to proceed. The defense attorneys at Ervin Kibria understand your concerns and your sense of urgency in dealing with a difficult situation.

  • Will I go to Jail? If you are convicted of first offense DUI/DWI with a BAC level between 0.15 and 0.20, Virginia law requires you to serve a minimum of five (5) days in jail. It should be noted that this time is not accorded the customary 50% reduction for ‘good time’ served, but requires the defendant to actually serve the full five days in jail. This can have a devastating impact on one’s ability to maintain his or her employment. If you are convicted of a first offense DUI/DWI with a BAC level over 0.20, you will be sentenced to a jail term for a minimum of ten (10) days.
  • An aggressive defense: The consequences of a DUI charge often depend on having an experienced lawyer to represent you. At Ervin Kibria, we have the necessary experience to aggressively investigate, defend and challenge the charges.
  • We work with you: We do not treat cases as if they were a car on an assembly line. We are not a DUI mill. We are personalized. We are accessible. We are hands on. We keep our practice small so we can be completely dedicated to giving our clients the very best representation. When you hire us you have direct access to us, not a law clerk, or a paralegal, or an associate attorney.

Whether you are dealing with a DUI charge or a serious traffic offense that can put points on your driver’s license, you can depend on the defense lawyers at Ervin Kibria.

    5) ignition interlock device if you get a restricted license
    6) you vehicle MUST be equipped with an ignition interlock device for the first 6 months of your restoration of driving privileges

DUI Penalties With a Prior DUI Conviction

A prior DUI conviction will have serious implications on any subsequent offense.  In general, a prior DUI conviction will be used to increase your DUI from a misdemeanor to a felony if it is a third or subsequent offense within 10 years, impose higher penalties for your new offense, and potentially implicate the mandatory sentencing requirements for your new conviction.

What is Virginia’s Implied Consent Law?

You may have heard or read about Virginia’s “implied consent law,” without really understanding what it refers to.  In Virginia, if you drive a vehicle on a public highway (which is any publicly accessible road), you are assumed to have impliedly consented to a blood or breath test is being performed if you are ever arrested for a DUI.  Consequently, you can and likely will be punished with another charge if you refuse to submit to take these sobriety tests.  Virginia Code Section 18.2-268.3 makes it illegal to “unreasonably refuse” to have samples of your blood or breath taken for chemical analysis to determine the alcohol or drug content after a drunk driving arrest has occurred.

While a first refusal crime is considered a civil, rather than criminal offense, the penalties are still severe.  The refusal charge requires a 1-year driver’s license suspension.  A 2nd or 3rd refusal causes the offense to be treated as a criminal matter, and can often result in jail time.
