At the Law Offices of Maddox Levine PLLC, we understand the nuances of criminal defense advocacy, DUI/DWI defense, and the application of DC law. Our constant practice makes us aware of judges, prosecutors, and court personnel likely to be involved in your case.

We know the law, understand the processes, and can help you navigate the complexities of your particular situation.

Deep Understanding of Client Needs

Though we have handled thousands of cases, we completely
understand the needs of each client:

  • We understand that being in the middle of a legal fight can be the loneliest place in the world if you don't have a lawyer in your corner who understands the importance of each case.
  • We understand that communication is impotrtant, so we keep clients informed of the law, all case developments, and options available.
  • We understand action is the focus, but listening to clients is also important to know their goals, questions, and concerns.

We let our clients know and understand the law. Once they are armed with that level of information and a strong legal advocate on their side, they feel empowered and no longer invisible in the process, which leads to impressive results.
Whether it is for a misdemeanor of felony criminal case, traffic case like impaired driving/DUI, or guardianship matters, you deserve a lawyer that you can trust to be on your side.

We understand the value of people and processes, so we have worked hard over the past two decades to make sure that our clients know that too. We focus our practice areas in Washington, DC now, but are soon expanding into Maryland to share our knowledge & experience to build trust.

Client arrest for Simple Assault

I PERSONALLY HAD A GREAT EXPERIENCE DEALING WITH MADDOX-LEVINE, ALL THINGS CONSIDERED, AND WOULD RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE IN NEED OF LEGAL REPRESENTATION!

"Visited D.C for a weekend and ended up being charged with a Dui. I reside in NJ and Maddox-Levine was very nice and helpful and easy to work with through phones calls and emails. I only had to travel to D.C twice for my two hearings and Maddox-Levine handled everything in between on my behalf being that I lived out of state. We were able to work out a payment plan and I felt her service was fairly priced, Maddox-Levine kept me well informed on everything happening with my case, informing me of all my options, as well as letting me know how cases similar to mine were playing out in court as my court date approached. Maddox-Levine is very knowledgable and easy to reach. Overall I personally had a great experience dealing with Maddox-Levine, all things considered, and would recommend her to anyone in need of legal representation!"

When contacted she would abruptly respond, she made me comfortable through the whole treacherous process of court, and even after everything was complete the additional concerns I had were immediately addressed! There's no better feeling than to have someone who you feel empathizes with you, is efficient, and more than anything is very knowledgeable/proficient when it comes to their position no matter what it is.

SHE IS THE BEST AND I CONSIDER HER MY LEGAL GUARDIAN ANGEL!!

After a night of partying, celebrating my best friends birthday I made what feels like the worst decision of my life. I choose to relocate my car to avoid a parking ticket all while under the influence of alcohol, despite having a designated driver to take me home ... I was stopped by the Officer ... processed and charged with a DUI after blowing a 0.16 on the breathalyzer. After sobering up and retrieving my car from the impound lot the first thing I did was research for a lawyer! I did my google search and came across T. Maddox-Levine's profile and website and after reading her reviews I knew I had to give her a call. Within minutes she explained everything I needed to know and how she can potentially help me. She also provided a fair price for her services and was willing to work with me on a payment plan. I instantly felt at ease despite knowing I could potentially lose my career and everything else I worked hard for. T. Maddox-Levine was easily accessible and informative every step of the way. I took the plea deal and settled for a lesser charge and was given 9 months of unsupervised probation pending completion of the court mandated programs. I am happy to say that I was able to keep my job and move on from this experience!! She is the best and I consider her my Legal guardian angel!!

IF YOU ARE RECOMMENDING COUNSEL I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MRS. MADDOX-LEVINE.

"I received counsel from Mrs. Maddox-Levine for my 3rd DUI offense. With her professional expertise and knowledge we were able to come to a very very acceptable sentence which included NO JAIL TIME. Her willingness to listen and understand what your thoughts and concerns are regarding your case made me feel extremely comfortable knowing that I was going to get the best possible result with her ... counsel. I researched many of the top DUI lawyers in the D.C. area and decided to go with Mrs. Maddox-Levine. This clearly was the correct choice and I am grateful for everything she did for me. She is also reasonably priced and allows payment plans for those that do not have the ability to pay in lump sums. Her relationships within the court system show and she is well respected in her field throughout. If you are recommending counsel I highly recommend Mrs. Maddox-Levine."

MS. MADDOX- LEVINE IS AN EXCEPTIONAL LAWYER AND IS VERY AFFORDABLE.

I had a previous case open that involved a DUI that happened in 2017. I was on probation and picked up another DUI charge this year. So I had a mandatory 15 days jail time and violated my probation that is mandatory jail time. I received no jail time. I had a previous lawyer representing my first case but, I dropped him after speaking with Ms. Maddox- Levine about my new case. I am currently working in the government and could not afford to have these charges on my record. I explained this to Ms. Maddox- Levine I am currently 24 years old and she was able to get me a YRA (Youth [Rehabilitation] Act) which was just passed in DC this year. The [YRA] is able to set aside any convictions that has happen before the age of 24. So, my convictions will be set aside after I complete probation and 150 hours of community service 90 hours is the maximum for 1 charge but I had 2 cases I was fighting. I have supervised probation as well, but in all honesty she is the BEST lawyer I have ever came across she is compassionate, savvy, and really does her research ex: YRA. Best DUI LAWYER I HAVE EVER CAME ACROSS THANKS AGAIN Ms. Maddox-Levine.
