About

Facing Charges in Northern Virginia, Henrico County, or surrounding counties? Call or email for a free consultation. Please allow me to introduce myself and my services. A lifelong resident of Northern Virginia and a practicing attorney for more than 31 years, my name is Wayne Stover. As a former Fairfax City and Arlington County assistant Commonwealth’s attorney, also known as a district attorney, I dealt with thousands of criminal and traffic cases, with a concentration on driving while intoxicated, driving while suspended, reckless driving, habitual offender, larcenies, assaults, drug cases, property offenses, and other serious transgressions. This experience gave me valuable insight into the intricacies of the legal issues involved in successfully prosecuting and defending citizens charged with violations of the law.Since leaving the prosecutor’s office, I have been in private practice as a defense attorney. Equipped with the knowledge and skill gained as a Commonwealth’s attorney, I am able to recognize and understand the strengths and weaknesses of a case from both sides of the courtroom. I can offer a defendant a broad, analytical, and even perspective of his/her case. My dual experience as a prosecutor and defender brings the added quality of anticipating the other side’s strategy, giving me the opportunity to be “one step ahead” of the opposing team.My years of litigating cases have also taught me that most citizens, not knowing the limitations of our legal system, are understandably anxious when faced with a traffic or criminal charge. During my representation, I attempt to present to a defendant all legal options and remedies available and to explain in layman’s terms the legal implications.My fees are fair and reasonable, my hours flexible, and I do not charge for an initial telephone consultation.SERIOUS TRAFFIC OFFENSESDUI / DWI / Drunk Driving; Driving Suspended; Reckless Driving; Hit-and-Run; Accidents and All Traffic OffensesCRIMINAL CASESAssaults; Drug Offenses; Theft Offenses; Vandalism; Telephone Threats and All Criminal CasesJUVENILE OFFENSESUnderage Drinking; DUI; Assaults; Drugs; Reckless Driving and All Juvenile Traffic and Criminal OffensesEXPERIENCEFormer Prosecutor -  Assistant Commonwealth's attorney in Arlington County and Fairfax City, Virginia.

I was recently involved in a no fault car accident. I called several attorneys. With most I could not even get past the initial person answering the phone. Wayne took the time to speak with me and gave me some good information and advice. He was honest enough to help me understand the situation from a legal perspective was empathetic with my frustration with the insurance industry. In this case I will most likely not hire an attorney but If I need to I will call him. On a long list I called he was one of only 2 who called me back.
