CALL FOR FREE CONSULTATION 202-486-6555 Offices located at Archives METRO (across from DC courts), and one block from Fairfax County courthouse. 601 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Suite 900-South, Washington, DC 20004 10521 Judicial Drive, Fairfax, Virginia 22030 In a career spanning over 30 years I've zealously fought for clients accused of virtually all types of crimes - from simple possession of marijuana to carjacking and murder. There is almost nothing I have not already seen and learned to deal with, both in the courtroom and at the negotiating table. I've helped thousands of people get through some of the worst times in their lives. I can help you too. I've recently completed an in-depth advanced training course on traffic alcohol cases approved by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and become one of only a few attorneys who have earned certification in Standardized Field Sobriety Testing. This means Ihave been trained and become proficient in exactly the same testing and procedures the police officers must use in order to make arrests for traffic alcohol charges, and can spot errors and omissions in their work and reports that frequently result in cases being dismissed. Before becoming an attorney I was a private investigator for several years, and before that i was a police officer, including a stint working undercover in narcotics. I've been where the arresting officer has been. I know what he sees, but more importantly I know what he misses. I've also represented numerous businesses from initial start-up through becoming major players in their fields - including representation in connection with incorporation, LLC agreements,leases, business licensing, government contracts and bid protests.

cannot even begin to thank Bernard Crane for all of his help. Not only was his legal representation impeccable, but his support in offering us reputable resources and advice, above and beyond the legalities of our situation, were priceless. We were impressed from the very beginning at his professionalism, reassurance and candor, while always treating my son with the utmost respect. The end result was the absolute best case scenario. I hope we don't need legal representation again, but if we do he will be the first person we call, no doubt about it!
Mr. Crane has provided me with business counsel from legal administration to contract review to tips on business negotiation and long range planning. In addition, Mr. Crane is highly responsive to meet my immediate business needs. He is a well trusted business adviser and provides both a legal view as well as a business perspective.
Good lord, the command he had for the courtroom was impressive. He made sure he knew every detail of the situation in preparation of the case. In this case, it was a traffic violation. Due to the knowledge and due diligence, he helped defend me, I got off free with no need for my testimony. I was nervous when it came to lawyers and courts. But Bernard made it easy on me. This was money well spent. Thanks Mr. Crane. If you see my review, multiple places, that is because I judge people with talent and who care about their job. This man has both. I want to spread the word.
He is a great person was nice enough to talked to me and guide me on where i should look up to get info on where i could start what i was looking to do. Thank you
Bernard, Thanks for taking the time to give me advice for my DC traffic citation. Your advice was most helpful!
I got snagged by a photo camera on my way to Florida from NJ. I called Mr. Crane and was very impressed at how straight forward he was with me. He put my mind at ease about paying the ticket vs trying to contest it. Although he did not have to, He explained how the ticket would not affect my insurance and hearing that straight from him made all the difference. If I did need a lawyer I would have been perfectly comfortable with him. I'm Glad I called.
Seasons greetings, happy holidays and thank you very much Mr. Bernard F. Crane for your genuine care and comfort ! Mr. Bernard F. Crane is the most genuine care, most honest, informative, reliable and responsive Attorney that I have ever come across. He is very hands on because he will advise you fairly and work harder on your defense despite whatever your background is. I highly recommend Mr. Bernard F. Crane as your attorney. and I will make sure to highly recommend you for anyone else that may need your help and wonderful services.
Mr. Crane is a very experienced and tactical criminal defense attorney in DC/VA region. I initially came across Mr. Crane on the recommendation of a court appointed attorney. Prior to meeting Mr. Crane, I had already consulted with many lawyers. Notwithstanding this fact, his willingness to break down the complexity of the legal terms and process and ability to think outside the box to come up with creative approaches to my felony assault case gave me confidence to move forward with him. From formulating strategies to prepping me for the sentencing, Mr. Crane worked as hard and efficiently as possible. In the end, he delivered the goods. He exceeded my expectation by achieving an outcome better than what I desired (More lenient sentence/ shorter probation period). I was pleased with his service and would recommend him to my dearest friends and family.
Mr. Crane was a pleasure to work with. He had a hard road ahead, as I was disputing against a State Trooper, but he took it on with the upmost confidence. Mr. Crane was professional, informative, and handled my case with care. Mr. Crane worked very hard and throughout the process he had to deal with not one but two unreasonable judges that barely gave him the time of day to speak. Nonetheless, he kept pushing and trying and finally the outcome I wanted happened. If you are looking for someone who will not stop trying and someone who really cares about you not only as a client, but as a human then please go with Mr. Crane. I could go all day with how happy I am with him.
I contacted Mr. Crane about a speeding ticket I received in DC. He was incredibly patient and generous with his time in addressing my concerns about the ticket and the impact it would have on my driving record and insurance. He took all my concerns seriously and walked me step-by-step through the legal jargon and policies pertaining to my case. He gave me the best advice for my situation, and I felt that he was taking my best interest under primary consideration. He is clearly very knowledgeable about traffic law in the District.
