The reality is that wishing and hoping are not always the solution. Every day, our team at von Keller Thelin takes the wishes of singles, couples, parents and everyone in between to create plans that work.

Joe Thelin is one of the best defense attorneys in Northern Virginia. His professionalism, experience, negotiating skills, and commitment to winning a case have certainly set him apart from other local attorneys. Joe represented my son twice, and in both cases he achieved best possible results. I strongly recommend his service.

Joe was absolutely fantastic from beginning to end on my case. He really did a great job listening to me first and understanding the exact circumstances, finding all weaknesses in the case, then formulating a very effective strategy of a strong offense in our defense of the charges.
Joe really delivered for me, I couldn't have asked any more of him. I highly recommend anyone in a similar situation to call Joe first.

My wife and I reached out to Joe Thelin to assist our family with some estate planning and power of attorney documentation in time of distress. Mr Thelin assessed our needs, suggested the best path for our family and delivered the documentation expeditiously. His professionalism, compassion, and understanding of our needs made a very difficult situation less stressful. I recommend Joe Thelin and his firm highly.

Mr. Thelin did an amazing job on my case. I received a speeding 83 in a 55 and a driving on suspended and because of my bad driving record Fairfax County wanted to put me in jail. Mr. Thelin was very understanding of my case and was able to get them to drop the driving on suspended charge and the speeding charge he got me off with a reasonable fine. He is a good lawyer and a good man. I highly recommend his services.

I was very grateful to have Mr.Thelin as my legal representative. He knows the law very well, has great recommendations to help your case, and is very determined to help you as much as he can and find the best outcome for you. Thelin and the firm have great professionalism and most importantly explain as time progresses step-by-step what is happening and what more you can do. I definitely recommend Joseph Thelin because he is not only a great lawyer, he truly cares about finding the best outcome for you.

What a blessed and awesome experience my son and I had with these two God sent attorneys. We arrived at the courthouse on Friday and we were greeted by a clerk who informed us that we could not go in front of a judge today or Monday to get my son's restricted license amended (my son is starting a new job on Tuesday and it is mandatory that his new job be listed on the amended restricted license); the clerk told us that we could come back on Tuesday (but that's the day my son was to start work). We walked up and down the halls of the court and we finally stopped in front of a gentleman who appeared
