Mid-Atlantic Attorneys serving Virginia, Maryland, District of Columbia, North Carolina and West Virginia

Rely on our experience in criminal defense, litigation, business, church & non-profit law, estate
& family law, intellectual property & licensing & more.

Not all legal cases are identical. The same goes for lawyers. Each of the Loudoun County attorneys at Simms Showers LLP brings a distinct focus to our legal practice. As our client, you’ll find we raise the bar to deliver effective, aggressive and results-oriented advocacy. Our combined talent allows us to represent clients in a diverse number of legal areas.

Loudoun County Criminal Defense

When you are charged with a crime, you have a lot to lose — your money, your freedom, your reputation, and your future. That’s why it’s crucial to obtain reliable criminal defense representation. Our seasoned Loudoun County criminal attorneys are former criminal prosecutors, so they are intimately familiar with the judicial system and are well-prepared to protect your civil liberties. Let us use our knowledge and experience to fight for the best outcome possible in your case.

Virginia DUI/DWI

Driving under the influence (DUI) and driving while intoxicated (DWI) are criminal charges and you have the right to an attorney for your defense. Breathalyzers which measure alcohol content are not foolproof, and DUI lawyers can often challenge the results. However, if you are convicted of a DUI, the penalties include jail time, fines, and license revocation.

If you are arrested for drunk driving, you have the right to consult with a Virginia DUI defense attorney prior to taking a chemical test. When asked by law enforcement officers if you want to speak with a lawyer, say yes. It cannot be held against you. Call us today for guidance to protect your rights.

Traffic Violations

Did you recently receive a traffic citation? In Virginia, traffic violations remain on your driving record and the point accumulations will affect your insurance rates. They can even lead to a license revocation. The greater the miles per hour exceeding the speed limit, the more serious the speeding violation. For some charges, however, you can have your record sealed or destroyed through a process called an expungement. Call a Virginia traffic violation attorney today if you would like to know if this is an option for you.

Church & Non-Profit Law

The Leesburg, Winchester & Manassas church & non-profit attorneys at Simms Showers LLP are national experts in church and non-profit law. From church plants to global ministries, we have counseled a wide range of non-profit organizations. We provide the legal expertise to walk you through the initial stages of starting or incorporating a non-profit organization, to managing the every-day legal affairs, to protecting the organization against lawsuits. Throughout our history, our firm has dealt with almost every issue faced by tax exempt organizations.

Business & Intellectual Property Law

Whether you are an experienced businessman or a startup entrepreneur, a knowledgeable business attorney is a vital asset for your company. From business formation to contracts to commercial litigation, our attorneys help businesses avert disaster and provide them with solid legal foundations. Are you a startup wanting to incorporate your business? Are you looking to trademark your brand? Our lawyers are here to help!

Estate & Family Law

Do you know what will happen to your estate if something happens to you? If you don’t have a Will established, you have no control over how your property is divided or who will take care of your children. Do you have competent, emotionally-supportive legal counsel guiding you through your divorce or custody dispute? Whether you need to plan your estate, establish a guardianship, or are in the middle of a divorce or a custody dispute, our estate and family law attorneys are here to protect your family and your future.

Loudoun County Civil, Commercial,
Employment & Personal Injury Attorneys

Civil lawsuits can be stressful — unless you have an experienced litigator fighting for you. Simms Showers LLP represents clients in most areas of civil litigation before federal, state and local courts, including trials, hearings, arbitrations and mediations. If you are facing losses due to someone else’s negligence or deliberate wrongdoing, our Leesburg civil litigation attorneys can help. We are prepared to conduct an investigation and provide you with the aggressive representation that your case deserves.

Employment Law

No one has the right to harass you at your place of work or deny you access to employee benefits. Simms Showers LLP protects the rights of workers from abusive colleagues or opportunistic management. Have you been the victim of workplace discrimination or wrongful termination? Do you believe that your employer violated your FLSA leave, or has subjected you to work overtime without pay? Our attorneys will stand up to your employer for you to help you receive the treatment in the workplace that you deserve.

Personal Injury

Our legal system offers protection under personal injury law to people who are seriously injured through the negligence or wrongful actions of others. Under Virginia’s contributory negligence law, you have the right to recover compensation as long as you did not contribute in any way to causing the injury.

Car accidents are the most common type of personal injury case and one of our personal injury lawyers can review your accident, gather evidence and identify liable parties to help you recover damages. Without an attorney, injury victims come up against insurance companies that use tactics to deny or delay their claims.

By putting a strong advocate on your side, you can level the playing field and receive the compensation you are entitled to by law. It is vital to seek legal help when someone else is at fault for your injury – especially when you have serious personal injuries such as head trauma or spinal damage.
