At Scrofano Law PC, we believe in three simple principles.
Honesty. We are always honest to our clients. We will never force or manipulate you to plead guilty or try to convince you to do something that is not in your interest. We work on flat fees and if it takes 1,000 hours to get the right result then so be it—regardless of the firm’s bottom line. We will always be straight with you about your case.
Commitment. We are 110 percent committed to your case. We communicate with you every step of the way. We are accessible by phone, email, and even text message. Because we are committed to your case, this is not a 9-5 job. If you have a warrant, we will go with you to the police station to turn yourself in at 6 in the morning and take your call on a Sunday night. We are committed to you and your case every step of the way.
Creativity. At Scrofano Law, we think outside the box. We will leave no stone unturned in trying to come up with a course of action to get you the best possible result. While many cases exhibit patterns, we look at each case specific to the client’s needs and the facts of the situation. We independently evaluate different plans of attack and come up with the right approach for your situation. You will not get boilerplate legal services here.

Families decry ‘two systems of justice’ at D.C. march
On April 10, 2020, almost a month after the US shut down, our lawyers held a Zoom happy hour during the height of lock down. Courts and schools were closed and Mayor Muriel Bowser's then-Stay-at-Home Order was in full effect. So, we decided to record the Zoom call as a sort of time capsule and turned it into the video below.
In the video, our lawyers get personal while discussing issues ranging from parenting in quarantine to coping with the increased stress brought on by the major disruption of life and firm operations. Its been a long journey as we are now attending in person court hearings in masks, adjusting to video court when available, and adapted our operations to remotely serve our clients.
When the pandemic hit, we closed our physical office space on March 17, 2020. During our morning zoom calls that first week, three of six members on our team ended up sick one after another.
This all happened at the onset of the pandemic when no testing was available and folks were scrambling to purchase toilet paper. While three people were sick and the remaining three were unsure who might get sick next, it was a very scary time in our firm's history. Fortunately, everyone recovered and we resumed full operations after about two weeks.
While we discuss some serious topics, we had some fun putting this video together as we discussed what the first few weeks were like. We hope you do as well watching it. We hope you’ll consider yourself part of our #wolfpack and know that we are here for you if the unthinkable happens and a friend or loved one is arrested in DC, Maryland, or Northern Virginia
