Matthew L Kreitzer, Attorney At Law
I am a criminal defense and divorce lawyer located in Winchester, VA. My goal is to help my clients understand Virginia's complicated criminal and civil legal systems. Working closely together with my clients allows me to anticipate their needs, keep them informed of the status of their case, and make them fully aware of the potential dangers and rewards of every step of the process.

I offer affordability, experience, and customer service. Service area includes Front Royal, Luray, Winchester, Stephens City, Berryville, Leesburg, Manassas, Culpeper, Warrenton, Strasburg, Woodstock, Harrisonburg, Frederick County, Shenandoah County, Warren County, Page County, Prince William County, Clarke County and Loudoun County.
Services
Have you been charged with a crime? A criminal charge can have a lot of negative consequences. Being convicted of a crime can effect your job, your finances, and even your right to own a firearm. A lawyer can help you by explaining the negative consequences of the specific crime you have been charged with, negotiating on your behalf with the prosecutor, and arguing for your rights in court.
An uncontested divorce is available if you and your spouse have settled all issues related to property, debt, finances and children. An uncontested divorce requires much less time to complete than a contested divorce. The typical timeline for an uncontested divorce is between two (2) weeks and one (1) month.
Life is dangerous. You can be injured when you least expect it. Personal injury lawyers help people who have suffered injuries on someone else's property or because of someone else's negligence. If you have been injured as a result of someone else's actions, you may be entitled to compensation. If you have been injured, call me to discuss your rights.
A will or a trust offers the opportunity to plan for your family's future. These documents allow you to state how you wish your assets to be left to your family. In the absence of a will or a trust, the Virginia law chooses how your assets are distributed. A lawyer can help walk you through all of the planning factors in deciding whether a will or a trust is right for you.
Federal and state law prohibit employers from discriminating against employees. You may be entitled to compensation if you have been discriminated against on the job based upon race, religion, nationality, age or sex. My services include drafting and filing complaints with the appropriate agency and advocating on your behalf.

I am a real estate investor that needed my lease reviewed by trained eyes. Mr. Kreitzer was exactly the man I needed. He was punctual, very informative, professional, and took time out of his schedule multiple times to speak with me in various platforms (email, phone call, etc). I will be directing all my legal concerns his way in the future. Thank you Mr. Kreitzer.

Mr. Kreitzer demonstrates a very knowledgeable understanding of the law and the court systems in which he practices. In the courtroom, Mr. Kreitzer thought very quickly on his feet and delivered a very intelligent rebuttal against the opposing party’s testimony, where I have seen many other lawyers in the past freeze and fall apart. I Very highly recommend him for any legal purpose.

We did a consult over the phone with him. Was extremely helpful. He can't help us right now, but the info he gave us was helpful. And he trusted me enough to pay his consult fee after he spoke to us. Liked him a lot.

I am very glad I hired Matthew Kreitzer to handle a tenant dispute a case I had as a landlord. The situation showed every sign of getting difficult but with Mr Kreitzer's work on my behalf, his advice and follow up with myself and opposing counsel, my case was resolved without lengthy court sessions and in a timely manner. I would have no hesitation enlisting his services in future and would certainly recommend Mr. Kreitzer to others, Sincerely, Patrick Masch
