Tom takes pride in his work as a problem solver and a team player.

Testimonials
Mike2022-11-19Mr. Soldan is knowledgeable, well experienced, and an exceptional professional in his field. I came to him seeking representation for a charge that would have had enormous repercussions; it was not an easy challenge to overcome. He diligently gathered the necessary information, informed me of everything I needed to do pre-trial, and communicated with the prosecution on my behalf. He was readily available to respond to any and all questions/concerns every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend Mr. Soldan and his firm to anyone seeking excellent legal representation in Loudoun County, VA.Sikander Jaffri2022-10-28I Had a reckless driving with 5 other traffic infractions, and all of them got dismissed. Thomas Soldan best lawyer out in Virginia no doubt!!!Snowdaddy2022-10-17Jared Slear2022-10-12Our experience with Mr. Soldan was 100% positive. Mr. Soldan was with us from start to finish throughout the process and was available to answer any questions we had. Perhaps most importantly, the outcome of our court case was honestly better than I imagined - and as a result the legal services rendered were worth many times what we paid.

Since I am out of state, I had to rely upon him to take charge. From the moment I spoke with Tom I was very relieved and confident that he was an ideal choice. Tom has been very responsive to me and my daughter, and he diligently handled some unexpected events that arose. He has expert knowledge, he is dedicated, reliable, and very committed to his clients. He knows the system in the Leesburg area. I am very pleased to have met Tom and I would immediately return to him for future legal help. You could not find a better legal advocate.Matthew Callaham2022-07-25Trust no one else..Christopher Moulthrop2022-07-12Casey Taylor2022-01-21Naveed Baig2022-01-03He s a best loyar good outcome my case Result thank you Mr Thomas soldan
