Our Testimonials

“Stephen Pfeiffer is a straight shooter that will get the job done. I called multiple other lawyers before I was referred to him by friends that work in law enforcement and the special operations community. I never thought once that I was getting the runaround or that my case was not important to him. This was my first DUI charge and we recieved the best possible outcome.”

– JA

Mr. Pfeiffer is the best lawyer you could obtain. He was with me every step of the way and answered all of my calls and any concerns I had. Despite my case being continued on multiple occasions Mr. Pfieffer was able to get me the best possible outcome. He was able to get my DUI charge reduced to a reckless and my case was not an easy one. Had the outcome been different, I could’ve lost my medical career and I can’t thank him enough.

– SG

Stephen took over my case from another DUI lawyer that claimed to have written the book on Virginia Beach DUIs but who told me “it was hopeless I should just plea.” Stephen looked at my file with fresh eyes and broke the government’s case down using the Field Sobriety Tests against the officer. At trial the judge dismissed the case after Pfeiffer dismantled the officer with his questions. Thank you Stephen for giving me a second chance.

– Debbie P.

I have had the blessing and privilege to have worked with Stephen Pfeiffer. He epitomizes the concept of factual attorney but takes it further. He’s a caring friend that clearly understands people make mistakes.

– Gregory K.

Stephen facilitated getting my life back by providing more than just a good defense. I was invited to his church where he and his family attend, and I still attend today. He is more than a great attorney. I have recommended him to multiple family members, and should be the first anyone calls in a legal crisis. Stephen carries a great reputation in the legal community and will be the greatest asset in finding you a path forward.

– Deborah P.

Mr. Pfeiffer kept me updated with any news and kept in regular contact with me personally just to make sure I was doing okay. His hard work and devotion to my wife’s case was incredible. We got the best possible outcome of her case and we could not have been any happier. Mr. Pfeiffer is sincere, patient, and a very loving person who I would recommend to anyone who needs a defense attorney. Best of all – we have become friends and he has helped me in my personal life that no one else could have.
