Justice and Fair Treatment in Criminal Defense Since 1973

As a former Military officer, I strive for justice and I help people in trouble find fair treatment -- not be punished for a lifetime for the mistake of a moment. Contact me, criminal lawyer John J. Rice when you need help. I like people and want to see them treated fairly. When you find yourself in trouble which happens to all of us at one time or another a criminal lawyer with common sense, compassion, and a concern for your welfare makes a huge difference in the outcome of your case. I represent many military personnel, both active duty and retired worldwide.

I am a criminal defense attorney who enjoys a good fight. I will battle uphill in court for results which will put your life back on track. When you are faced with financial ruin and the loss of your freedom, a lawyer with a sense of humor can break the tension and help you face your situation with less stress. I am tolerant of the mistakes of others and genuinely want to help you. I develop a strong trust with my client and can pursue your case in court.

Effective Personal Injury Attorney

When someone is injured, I work hard to help them obtain compensation for their injuries from all responsible parties. I am an experienced negotiator and trial attorney, and I truly care about my clients.

If you have been hurt by someone's carelessness, recklessness, or violence, please contact my Virginia law firm to discuss your case.

Knowledge and Experience

I have an extensive background in criminal law and litigation through private practice, and I teach law to students in the School of Business at Hampton University. I have pursued both aspects of my career with equal zest since 1973.

My primary areas are the criminal defense of drunk driving, drug violations, car accident injuries, personal injuries, and medical malpractice. Many of my clients are military officers, and enlisted personnel, college students, and community members. Versatility

I have the ability to switch from representing a client in significant civil litigation involving hundreds of thousands of dollars to defending a college student for drunk driving or drug charges. I am equally comfortable with assisting officers or the enlisted personnel in any branch of the Armed Forces. I have traveled or lived in many places around the world and understand that when a person is living far from home, there are times when you get into a jam and need help getting out of it. I can help you, whether you have a problem with a traffic violation, drug charge, shoplifting, or grand larceny.
