I was facing my 2nd DWI conviction & he got it reduced to 1st & also a reckless driving reduced to just a speeding ticket. I am very please with the amount of preparation and thought out into my case. Also I am appreciative for the amount of compassion involved and I couldn’t be more grateful.

If you want your best chance at beating your charges then you seriously need to talk to this guy. I was actually quite impressed the amount of knowledge he has and his ability to pick apart every small detail and use it to your advantage. The whole process was actually almost stress free. He even calmed my wife's nerves down (free of charge) and she stresses and worries about everything. So if your reading this then yeah, at the least, have a seat with him and talk to him he's a great guy and very easy to talk to, and im pretty sure whatever you throw at him he will find a way to make it better.

Michael recently represented me for a reckless speeding ticket. He got it reduced to improper driving and even talked to prosecutor into reducing my fine by half. He had already made arrangements with the prosecutor before my trial began, so when we were called, it took less than 3 minutes to come to an agreement. Very seamless experience. I would highly recommend Mr. Tillotson.

On March 24, 2019, I was T-boned by the Newport News Police Department. I was charged with a DWI and failure to yield. After several continuances by the courts, my case was finally heard on June 22, 2020. The charges were dropped thanks to Attorney Michael Tillotson. He along with his impeccable staff had me worry free during this entire process. He offers excellent service, he knows the law, he’s aggressive, and he’s a fighter to end! I would highly recommend him and his services to anyone.

I had a career ending DUI charge, in an area that is well-known for harsh DUI punishments. My case had multiple difficulties including, a BAC certificate of .14, a less than stellar field sobriety test video, multiple medical conditions, and I was driving a company vehicle. Mike and his staff were fantastic. They were quick to answer questions, provide updates and direction, and kept me informed on the progression of the defense strategy. On our day in court, Mike did a fantastic job of cross examining the arresting officer, and objecting to the prosecution's attempts at making their case. Mike was able to get the charge dismissed completely, and saved my career. I would recommend his counsel to anyone who is faced with a DUI.

Over a year ago, I was cited and accused of a DUI and refusal to provide a breathalyzer test. Michael Tillotson worked both cases to perfection! Within the past two months, I was found NOT GUILTY of the DUI and the refusal to provide a Breathalyzer charge was dismissed in court. His hard work and dedication to my case helped tremendously to prove my innocent. His expertise on the breathalyzer system and the currently laws were outstanding. I want to thank Mr. Tillotson and his team for all their help. He truly believe that every person is innocent until proven guilty. If you have been cited and/or accused of a DUI, I strongly recommend contacting Mr. Tillotson and his team to assist you. THANKS!

I was arrested for a second DUI within 3 years. Mike Tillotson was able to get it reduced to a "DUI First" with only five days of jail time! I wound up serving one weekend in jail. This was an incredible outcome for me and my family. I only had to get interlock on my primary vehicle versus all of my family's vehicles if I had been convicted of a 2nd DUI. Mike's representation is the best in Virginia for DUI Law. Contact him immediately for your DUI legal representation= 757-969-5197.

I will admit that I had many moments of anxiety leading up to my court date and that I did not fully understand Michael's strategy until my trial was underway. When the judge was reading her decision (regardless of the outcome), I was more than satisfied in Michael's diligent representation. I was found NOT GUILTY. Although I interpreted Michael as unorthodox and he left me wondering at times, I assure you that there is a method to his madness. This man knows exactly what he is doing and gives 100% of himself to his clients. He's worth every penny. I hope I never have to hire or recommend a DUI attorney ever again but if I do, it will be Michael Tillotson, hands down.

What can I say about Michael Tillotson? Simply the best. He has a very deep understanding of the nuances of every single dui case. Simply put, he has a lot of experience. When I got my first (and last) dui charge I was desperate because I had just gotten my CDL. There was a lot at stake. I did my research on dui lawyers and I found Michael. After meeting him in person I was surprised of how friendly and caring he really was. In court Michael showed his professionalism and knowledge of the law. I was really happy that the jugdge found me not guilty. Michael, I can’t thank you enough. His staff is also friendly and will do everything they can to accommodate his clients. I highly recommend Michael Tillotson!

I was pulled over and charged with DWI in NK County. I found Mr. Tillotson by doing a search for top DUI Lawyers in Richmond. He came up even though he was in Newport News. I called his office and spoke with him about my case and decided to retain him for my case. I didn't know what to expect and felt like my life was over and there was no way to get out of this charge. My job was on the line if I was convicted of a DUI, which would have caused me to lose everything I worked so hard for. Mr. Tillotson made me feel better as soon as I spoke with him. He has extensive knowledge of all the different aspects of DUI charges. He will go through your case bit by bit and look at everything. The morning we went to court, he spoke with the prosecutor, who didn’t seem like he was willing to budge. Mr. Tillotson was very persistent with the prosecutor and the arresting officer on the evidence he had to prove that the officer exaggerated in his report as well as the fact that I was on a low carb diet, which can affect your BAC. He was able to get them to agree to reduce the charge down to a Reckless Driving charge with a restricted license for 6 months, which is much better than what I would have received if convicted of a DUI/DWI. I can not recommend a better lawyer for DUI/DWI charges. He is well worth the money spent.

I will admit that I had many moments of anxiety leading up to my court date and that I did not fully understand Michael's strategy until my trial was underway. When the judge was reading her decision (regardless of the outcome), I was more than satisfied in Michael's diligent representation. I was found NOT GUILTY. Although I interpreted Michael as unorthodox and he left me wondering at times, I assure you that there is a method to his madness. This man knows exactly what he is doing and gives 100% of himself to his clients. He's worth every penny. I hope I never have to hire or recommend a DUI attorney ever again but if I do, it will be Michael Tillotson, hands down.

What can I say about Michael Tillotson? Simply the best. He has a very deep understanding of the nuances of every single dui case. Simply put, he has a lot of experience. When I got my first (and last) dui charge I was desperate because I had just gotten my CDL. There was a lot at stake. I did my research on dui lawyers and I found Michael. After meeting him in person I was surprised of how friendly and caring he really was. In court Michael showed his professionalism and knowledge of the law. I was really happy that the jugdge found me not guilty. Michael, I can’t thank you enough. His staff is also friendly and will do everything they can to accommodate his clients. I highly recommend Michael Tillotson!

I was pulled over and charged with DWI in NK County. I found Mr. Tillotson by doing a search for top DUI Lawyers in Richmond. He came up even though he was in Newport News. I called his office and spoke with him about my case and decided to retain him for my case. I didn't know what to expect and felt like my life was over and there was no way to get out of this charge. My job was on the line if I was convicted of a DUI, which would have caused me to lose everything I worked so hard for. Mr. Tillotson made me feel better as soon as I spoke with him. He has extensive knowledge of all the different aspects of DUI charges. He will go through your case bit by bit and look at everything. The morning we went to court, he spoke with the prosecutor, who didn’t seem like he was willing to budge. Mr. Tillotson was very persistent with the prosecutor and the arresting officer on the evidence he had to prove that the officer exaggerated in his report as well as the fact that I was on a low carb diet, which can affect your BAC. He was able to get them to agree to reduce the charge down to a Reckless Driving charge with a restricted license for 6 months, which is much better than what I would have received if convicted of a DUI/DWI. I can not recommend a better lawyer for DUI/DWI charges. He is well worth the money spent.

I was facing my 2nd DWI conviction & he got it reduced to 1st & also a reckless driving reduced to just a speeding ticket. I am very please with the amount of preparation and thought out into my case. Also I am appreciative for the amount of compassion involved and I couldn’t be more grateful.

If you want your best chance at beating your charges then you seriously need to talk to this guy. I was actually quite impressed the amount of knowledge he has and his ability to pick apart every small detail and use it to your advantage. The whole process was actually almost stress free. He even calmed my wife's nerves down (free of charge) and she stresses and worries about everything. So if your reading this then yeah, at the least, have a seat with him and talk to him he's a great guy and very easy to talk to, and im pretty sure whatever you throw at him he will find a way to make it better.

Michael recently represented me for a reckless speeding ticket. He got it reduced to improper driving and even talked to prosecutor into reducing my fine by half. He had already made arrangements with the prosecutor before my trial began, so when we were called, it took less than 3 minutes to come to an agreement. Very seamless experience. I would highly recommend Mr. Tillotson.

On March 24, 2019, I was T-boned by the Newport News Police Department. I was charged with a DWI and failure to yield. After several continuances by the courts, my case was finally heard on June 22, 2020. The charges were dropped thanks to Attorney Michael Tillotson. He along with his impeccable staff had me worry free during this entire process. He offers excellent service, he knows the law, he’s aggressive, and he’s a fighter to end! I would highly recommend him and his services to anyone.

I had a career ending DUI charge, in an area that is well-known for harsh DUI punishments. My case had multiple difficulties including, a BAC certificate of .14, a less than stellar field sobriety test video, multiple medical conditions, and I was driving a company vehicle. Mike and his staff were fantastic. They were quick to answer questions, provide updates and direction, and kept me informed on the progression of the defense strategy. On our day in court, Mike did a fantastic job of cross examining the arresting officer, and objecting to the prosecution's attempts at making their case. Mike was able to get the charge dismissed completely, and saved my career. I would recommend his counsel to anyone who is faced with a DUI.

Over a year ago, I was cited and accused of a DUI and refusal to provide a breathalyzer test. Michael Tillotson worked both cases to perfection! Within the past two months, I was found NOT GUILTY of the DUI and the refusal to provide a Breathalyzer charge was dismissed in court. His hard work and dedication to my case helped tremendously to prove my innocent. His expertise on the breathalyzer system and the currently laws were outstanding. I want to thank Mr. Tillotson and his team for all their help. He truly believe that every person is innocent until proven guilty. If you have been cited and/or accused of a DUI, I strongly recommend contacting Mr. Tillotson and his team to assist you. THANKS!

I was arrested for a second DUI within 3 years. Mike Tillotson was able to get it reduced to a "DUI First" with only five days of jail time! I wound up serving one weekend in jail. This was an incredible outcome for me and my family. I only had to get interlock on my primary vehicle versus all of my family's vehicles if I had been convicted of a 2nd DUI. Mike's representation is the best in Virginia for DUI Law. Contact him immediately for your DUI legal representation= 757-969-5197.

I want to thank Mr. Tillotson and his team for all their help. He truly believe that every person is innocent until proven guilty. If you have been cited and/or accused of a DUI, I strongly recommend contacting Mr. Tillotson and his team to assist you. THANKS!

I was arrested for a second DUI within 3 years. Mike Tillotson was able to get it reduced to a "DUI First" with only five days of jail time! I wound up serving one weekend in jail. This was an incredible outcome for me and my family. I only had to get interlock on my primary vehicle versus all of my family's vehicles if I had been convicted of a 2nd DUI. Mike's representation is the best in Virginia for DUI Law. Contact him immediately for your DUI legal representation= 757-969-5197.

I will admit that I had many moments of anxiety leading up to my court date and that I did not fully understand Michael's strategy until my trial was underway. When the judge was reading her decision (regardless of the outcome), I was more than satisfied in Michael's diligent representation. I was found NOT GUILTY. Although I interpreted Michael as unorthodox and he left me wondering at times, I assure you that there is a method to his madness. This man knows exactly what he is doing and gives 100% of himself to his clients. He's worth every penny. I hope I never have to hire or recommend a DUI attorney ever again but if I do, it will be Michael Tillotson, hands down.

What can I say about Michael Tillotson? Simply the best. He has a very deep understanding of the nuances of every single dui case. Simply put, he has a lot of experience. When I got my first (and last) dui charge I was desperate because I had just gotten my CDL. There was a lot at stake. I did my research on dui lawyers and I found Michael. After meeting him in person I was surprised of how friendly and caring he really was. In court Michael showed his professionalism and knowledge of the law. I was really happy that the jugdge found me not guilty. Michael, I can’t thank you enough. His staff is also friendly and will do everything they can to accommodate his clients. I highly recommend Michael Tillotson!

I was pulled over and charged with DWI in NK County. I found Mr. Tillotson by doing a search for top DUI Lawyers in Richmond. He came up even though he was in Newport News. I called his office and spoke with him about my case and decided to retain him for my case. I didn't know what to expect and felt like my life was over and there was no way to get out of this charge. My job was on the line if I was convicted of a DUI, which would have caused me to lose everything I worked so hard for. Mr. Tillotson made me feel better as soon as I spoke with him. He has extensive knowledge of all the different aspects of DUI charges. He will go through your case bit by bit and look at everything. The morning we went to court, he spoke with the prosecutor, who didn’t seem like he was willing to budge. Mr. Tillotson was very persistent with the prosecutor and the arresting officer on the evidence he had to prove that the officer exaggerated in his report as well as the fact that I was on a low carb diet, which can affect your BAC. He was able to get them to agree to reduce the charge down to a Reckless Driving charge with a restricted license for 6 months, which is much better than what I would have received if convicted of a DUI/DWI. I can not recommend a better lawyer for DUI/DWI charges. He is well worth the money spent.

I was facing my 2nd DWI conviction & he got it reduced to 1st & also a reckless driving reduced to just a speeding ticket. I am very please with the amount of preparation and thought out into my case. Also I am appreciative for the amount of compassion involved and I couldn’t be more grateful.

If you want your best chance at beating your charges then you seriously need to talk to this guy. I was actually quite impressed the amount of knowledge he has and his ability to pick apart every small detail and use it to your advantage. The whole process was actually almost stress free. He even calmed my wife's nerves down (free of charge) and she stresses and worries about everything. So if your reading this then yeah, at the least, have a seat with him and talk to him he's a great guy and very easy to talk to, and im pretty sure whatever you throw at him he will find a way to make it better.

Michael recently represented me for a reckless speeding ticket. He got it reduced to improper driving and even talked to prosecutor into reducing my fine by half. He had already made arrangements with the prosecutor before my trial began, so when we were called, it took less than 3 minutes to come to an agreement. Very seamless experience. I would highly recommend Mr. Tillotson.

On March 24, 2019, I was T-boned by the Newport News Police Department. I was charged with a DWI and failure to yield. After several continuances by the courts, my case was finally heard on June 22, 2020. The charges were dropped thanks to Attorney Michael Tillotson. He along with his impeccable staff had me worry free during this entire process. He offers excellent service, he knows the law, he’s aggressive, and he’s a fighter to end! I would highly recommend him and his services to anyone.

I had a career ending DUI charge, in an area that is well-known for harsh DUI punishments. My case had multiple difficulties including, a BAC certificate of .14, a less than stellar field sobriety test video, multiple medical conditions, and I was driving a company vehicle. Mike and his staff were fantastic. They were quick to answer questions, provide updates and direction, and kept me informed on the progression of the defense strategy. On our day in court, Mike did a fantastic job of cross examining the arresting officer, and objecting to the prosecution's attempts at making their case. Mike was able to get the charge dismissed completely, and saved my career. I would recommend his counsel to anyone who is faced with a DUI.

My case had multiple difficulties including, a BAC certificate of .14, a less than stellar field sobriety test video, multiple medical conditions, and I was driving a company vehicle. Mike and his staff were fantastic. They were quick to answer questions, provide updates and direction, and kept me informed on the progression of the defense strategy. On our day in court, Mike did a fantastic job of cross examining the arresting officer, and objecting to the prosecution's attempts at making their case. Mike was able to get the charge dismissed completely, and saved my career. I would recommend his counsel to anyone who is faced with a DUI.

Over a year ago, I was cited and accused of a DUI and refusal to provide a breathalyzer test. Michael Tillotson worked both cases to perfection! Within the past two months, I was found NOT GUILTY of the DUI and the refusal to provide a Breathalyzer charge was dismissed in court. His hard work and dedication to my case helped tremendously to prove my innocent. His expertise on the breathalyzer system and the currently laws were outstanding. I want to thank Mr. Tillotson and his team for all their help. He truly believe that every person is innocent until proven guilty. If you have been cited and/or accused of a DUI, I strongly recommend contacting Mr. Tillotson and his team to assist you. THANKS!

I was arrested for a second DUI within 3 years. Mike Tillotson was able to get it reduced to a "DUI First" with only five days of jail time! I wound up serving one weekend in jail. This was an incredible outcome for me and my family. I only had to get interlock on my primary vehicle versus all of my family's vehicles if I had been convicted of a 2nd DUI. Mike's representation is the best in Virginia for DUI Law. Contact him immediately for your DUI legal representation= 757-969-5197.

I will admit that I had many moments of anxiety leading up to my court date and that I did not fully understand Michael's strategy until my trial was underway. When the judge was reading her decision (regardless of the outcome), I was more than satisfied in Michael's diligent representation. I was found NOT GUILTY. Although I interpreted Michael as unorthodox and he left me wondering at times, I assure you that there is a method to his madness. This man knows exactly what he is doing and gives 100% of himself to his clients. He's worth every penny. I hope I never have to hire or recommend a DUI attorney ever again but if I do, it will be Michael Tillotson, hands down.

What can I say about Michael Tillotson? Simply the best. He has a very deep understanding of the nuances of every single dui case. Simply put, he has a lot of experience. When I got my first (and last) dui charge I was desperate because I had just gotten my CDL. There was a lot at stake. I did my research on dui lawyers and I found Michael. After meeting him in person I was surprised of how friendly and caring he really was. In court Michael showed his professionalism and knowledge of the law. I was really happy that the jugdge found me not guilty. Michael, I can’t thank you enough. His staff is also friendly and will do everything they can to accommodate his clients. I highly recommend Michael Tillotson!

I was pulled over and charged with DWI in NK County. I found Mr. Tillotson by doing a search for top DUI Lawyers in Richmond. He came up even though he was in Newport News. I called his office and spoke with him about my case and decided to retain him for my case. I didn't know what to expect and felt like my life was over and there was no way to get out of this charge. My job was on the line if I was convicted of a DUI, which would have caused me to lose everything I worked so hard for. Mr. Tillotson made me feel better as soon as I spoke with him. He has extensive knowledge of all the different aspects of DUI charges. He will go through your case bit by bit and look at everything. The morning we went to court, he spoke with the prosecutor, who didn’t seem like he was willing to budge. Mr. Tillotson was very persistent with the prosecutor and the arresting officer on the evidence he had to prove that the officer exaggerated in his report as well as the fact that I was on a low carb diet, which can affect your BAC. He was able to get them to agree to reduce the charge down to a Reckless Driving charge with a restricted license for 6 months, which is much better than what I would have received if convicted of a DUI/DWI. I can not recommend a better lawyer for DUI/DWI charges. He is well worth the money spent.

I was facing my 2nd DWI conviction & he got it reduced to 1st & also a reckless driving reduced to just a speeding ticket. I am very please with the amount of preparation and thought out into my case. Also I am appreciative for the amount of compassion involved and I couldn’t be more grateful.

If you want your best chance at beating your charges then you seriously need to talk to this guy. I was actually quite impressed the amount of knowledge he has and his ability to pick apart every small detail and use it to your advantage. The whole process was actually almost stress free. He even calmed my wife's nerves down (free of charge) and she stresses and worries about everything. So if your reading this then yeah, at the least, have a seat with him and talk to him he's a great guy and very easy to talk to, and im pretty sure whatever you throw at him he will find a way to make it better.

Michael recently represented me for a reckless speeding ticket. He got it reduced to improper driving and even talked to prosecutor into reducing my fine by half. He had already made arrangements with the prosecutor before my trial began, so when we were called, it took less than 3 minutes to come to an agreement. Very seamless experience. I would highly recommend Mr. Tillotson.

On March 24, 2019, I was T-boned by the Newport News Police Department. I was charged with a DWI and failure to yield. After several continuances by the courts, my case was finally heard on June 22, 2020. The charges were dropped thanks to Attorney Michael Tillotson. He along with his impeccable staff had me worry free during this entire process. He offers excellent service, he knows the law, he’s aggressive, and he’s a fighter to end! I would highly recommend him and his services to anyone.

He had already made arrangements with the prosecutor before my trial began, so when we were called, it took less than 3 minutes to come to an agreement. Very seamless experience. I would highly recommend Mr. Tillotson.

On March 24, 2019, I was T-boned by the Newport News Police Department. I was charged with a DWI and failure to yield. After several continuances by the courts, my case was finally heard on June 22, 2020. The charges were dropped thanks to Attorney Michael Tillotson. He along with his impeccable staff had me worry free during this entire process. He offers excellent service, he knows the law, he’s aggressive, and he’s a fighter to end! I would highly recommend him and his services to anyone.

I had a career ending DUI charge, in an area that is well-known for harsh DUI punishments. My case had multiple difficulties including, a BAC certificate of .14, a less than stellar field sobriety test video, multiple medical conditions, and I was driving a company vehicle. Mike and his staff were fantastic. They were quick to answer questions, provide updates and direction, and kept me informed on the progression of the defense strategy. On our day in court, Mike did a fantastic job of cross examining the arresting officer, and objecting to the prosecution's attempts at making their case. Mike was able to get the charge dismissed completely, and saved my career. I would recommend his counsel to anyone who is faced with a DUI.

Over a year ago, I was cited and accused of a DUI and refusal to provide a breathalyzer test. Michael Tillotson worked both cases to perfection! Within the past two months, I was found NOT GUILTY of the DUI and the refusal to provide a Breathalyzer charge was dismissed in court. His hard work and dedication to my case helped tremendously to prove my innocent. His expertise on the breathalyzer system and the currently laws were outstanding. I want to thank Mr. Tillotson and his team for all their help. He truly believe that every person is innocent until proven guilty. If you have been cited and/or accused of a DUI, I strongly recommend contacting Mr. Tillotson and his team to assist you. THANKS!

I was arrested for a second DUI within 3 years. Mike Tillotson was able to get it reduced to a "DUI First" with only five days of jail time! I wound up serving one weekend in jail. This was an incredible outcome for me and my family. I only had to get interlock on my primary vehicle versus all of my family's vehicles if I had been convicted of a 2nd DUI. Mike's representation is the best in Virginia for DUI Law. Contact him immediately for your DUI legal representation= 757-969-5197.

I will admit that I had many moments of anxiety leading up to my court date and that I did not fully understand Michael's strategy until my trial was underway. When the judge was reading her decision (regardless of the outcome), I was more than satisfied in Michael's diligent representation. I was found NOT GUILTY. Although I interpreted Michael as unorthodox and he left me wondering at times, I assure you that there is a method to his madness. This man knows exactly what he is doing and gives 100% of himself to his clients. He's worth every penny. I hope I never have to hire or recommend a DUI attorney ever again but if I do, it will be Michael Tillotson, hands down.

What can I say about Michael Tillotson? Simply the best. He has a very deep understanding of the nuances of every single dui case. Simply put, he has a lot of experience. When I got my first (and last) dui charge I was desperate because I had just gotten my CDL. There was a lot at stake. I did my research on dui lawyers and I found Michael. After meeting him in person I was surprised of how friendly and caring he really was. In court Michael showed his professionalism and knowledge of the law. I was really happy that the jugdge found me not guilty. Michael, I can’t thank you enough. His staff is also friendly and will do everything they can to accommodate his clients. I highly recommend Michael Tillotson!

I was pulled over and charged with DWI in NK County. I found Mr. Tillotson by doing a search for top DUI Lawyers in Richmond. He came up even though he was in Newport News. I called his office and spoke with him about my case and decided to retain him for my case. I didn't know what to expect and felt like my life was over and there was no way to get out of this charge. My job was on the line if I was convicted of a DUI, which would have caused me to lose everything I worked so hard for. Mr. Tillotson made me feel better as soon as I spoke with him. He has extensive knowledge of all the different aspects of DUI charges. He will go through your case bit by bit and look at everything. The morning we went to court, he spoke with the prosecutor, who didn’t seem like he was willing to budge. Mr. Tillotson was very persistent with the prosecutor and the arresting officer on the evidence he had to prove that the officer exaggerated in his report as well as the fact that I was on a low carb diet, which can affect your BAC. He was able to get them to agree to reduce the charge down to a Reckless Driving charge with a restricted license for 6 months, which is much better than what I would have received if convicted of a DUI/DWI. I can not recommend a better lawyer for DUI/DWI charges. He is well worth the money spent.
