Lawyering
For Good
People go through real trouble in their lives deserving of real attention. As a public interest trial attorney, I give voice to the voiceless, defend the accused, and right wrongs for those in need. I try cases for clients with problems to solve and stories to tell. My goal is to lawyer for good.

Public Interest
Trial Attorney
The only real lawyers are trial lawyers, and trial lawyers try cases to juries. I narrowly focus my practice not only on trial work, but on representing clients with problems to solve and stories to tell that are in the public interest.
I am committed to fighting for clients who are fighting for their future, those accused of wrongdoing or who have experienced injustice, discrimination, or abuse. My substantial experience inside and outside of the courtroom enables me to level the playing field for anyone who may feel powerless against the criminal legal system or other predatory parties: an agency, employer, business, academic institution, landlord, or individual, among others.
As a former Prosecutor and Policy Advisor for the City of Richmond, a former Captain in the United States Marine Corps and Veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan, and as an Advocate for reform in the City and the Commonwealth, I have built my career, as both an attorney and a civil servant, in defense of the public good.
Winning your case through live advocacy requires unique expertise that only comes with years of trial experience. Many attorneys settle cases, but I focus my practice on trials and oral arguments. I’ve honed my skills in many forums – from courtrooms to administrative hearings to boards and panels to arbitration and even the public square.
Every person deserves an aggressive, creative, and personalized strategy. I have handled first-degree murder juries, grievance panels for deputy fire chiefs, and many matters in between, with the same dedication, energy, and creativity all trial work deserves. Through advocacy, I aim to live a life of servant leadership for my clients.

I got in some legal trouble in Virginia and I found criminal defense attorney Tom on Google. Tom immediately took my call, explained what he could do, and was ready to try my case. He informed me of what the process would be, and within 45 days, we were in court for Trial and got a WIN! I’m so grateful I found him. He was extremely thorough and communicative throughout this entire ordeal. Thank you, Tom!
He is passoniate in taking care of his clients needs!
Response from the owner:John! I’m grateful for your support of my practice – thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! To this day, our engagement remains a highlight of my career. As your criminal defense attorney, we were able to try your case and get it dismissed through the good work you undertook in the community. And that work ultimately led you to become more involved in supporting other people going through the system. I often share your story as an example of what trial attorneys can accomplish with great clients because I'm so proud to have served you. Please stay in touch!
Tom was highly recommended to me when I had given up hope of clearing my name and record. He is an excellent criminal defense attorney. With his knowledge and guidance my record was expunged. Tom gave me a new lease on life!
I would recommend Tom Barbour as a criminal defense attorney without reservation.

Response from the owner:Ed, I share this humorous anecdote with you because through this experience you and yours have truly become so dear to my family. My wife, who is a much better trial lawyer than me, always says that I am a "pathological optimist." But if there was ever a client who deserved such dogged persistence and zealous optimism in advocacy of their case – it was you! What a long and winding but worthwhile road to get you to a place you've very much earned the right to be: living life faithfully with a fresh start. I wish you happiness, always – and I look forward to staying in touch.
Tom is a great guy and a very professional reckless driving attorney! I am very happy with the result that Tom helping to get for me. I drove 87/55 in Virginia. Tom got me dismissed without me being presence on the court. If you got a driving ticket in Virginia, whatever it was reckless driving or not, he will surely help you.
Great job representing me during my traffic violation. The process was super easy. I highly recommended Tom, very knowledgeable.
Thank you everything.
Thank you everything.
Great communication. Great service. Absolutely would recommend. 10/10

Response from the owner:Hi, Mr. Smith – I am honored to have stayed by your side over the years so that I can see your success now. Dedicated attorneys understand that recovery is not a straight road, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to have walked the path with you. I wish you the absolute best for continuing success and happiness. Please call my cell if you ever need anything!
Excellent reckless driving attorney. Was able to get a Class 1 Misdemeanor of Reckless Driving reduced to a Simple Speeding Traffic Infractions. Saved me 3 demerits points on my license. Easy to talk to listens to your concerns and effectively communicates the best course of action.
Response from the owner:Hey, Mr. Hicks, thank you for the very kind review and for being such a wonderful client! Representing holders of a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) can be difficult in Virginia because of how tough our traffic laws are on them. I’m excited that we got you the outcome you deserved in your reckless driving case. And I am grateful for the work we did together to protect your CDL and your future. Please reach out whenever you need, and I'll look forward to hearing from you!
Tom was awesome. Explained every little detail with me to make sure I understood the process, what my options were and the outcomes may or may not be. He’s my go to guy that hopefully I may never need again lol thanks again Tom!
Response from the owner:Mr. James! Thank you for your kind review and for being such a wonderful client. It was my honor to serve as your Reckless Driving Attorney and I'm grateful we got your case handled to your satisfaction: reducing a criminal charge to a non-moving violation without any points on your license is a big win. Excited to hear you’ve moved on successfully – please stay in touch!
I can’t thank Tom enough. In 2019, I was facing serious charges for breaking and entering at night and grand larceny. Due to a conflict of interest with the court-appointed lawyer, Tom stepped in and took my case pro bono. He worked really hard to reduce my charges to unlawful entry and entering property to damage, and was incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Fast forward to 2024, the courts lost my records and issued a capias, thinking I had missed probation. Tom immediately was willing to help and got everything dismissed. He’s not only an excellent lawyer but someone who truly cares about his clients. If you need legal representation, Tom is the person to go to!
Response from the owner:Let me tell you, Cole: I am so glad we've stayed in touch! As a criminal defense attorney who cares deeply about their clients, it is a blessing to watch people like you move past their records into leading happy, successful lives. I'm so glad you and your family called me again this year to fix a problem that could have landed you back in jail and taken you off the better path you're walking now. It's been my privilege to see this through with you. You've got my cell if you need anything – your future is bright!
I was fighting 2 different gun cases in 2 different jurisdictions at the same time when I retained, Mr. Barbour. He came straight in helping greatly before I even retained him. He gave a low/great retaining fee for handling both cases. He definitely kept in contact with my family, prosecutors, courts,.. etc. I could’ve been doing 5-10 or more… but he found the loop holes and I only did 40 days in jail, 30 days probation and $400 fine. In other words…RETAIN HIM! DEFF A GREAT LAWYER. Thanx again Mr. Barbour.
Response from the owner:Mr. Terry – thank you so much for trusting me to serve as your criminal defense attorney. Yours was a complicated situation, requiring contested bond hearings and a coordinated strategy in multiple jurisdictions. Your family was counting on us to get you home and keep you there, and I'm so glad we were able to get that done for you. I always appreciated your feedback and insights as we defended your cases, and I am grateful for your kind words now. I wish you the best for your happiness and success – please stay in touch!
Attorney Tom Barbour was exceptional with my case.Very professional, excellent with my reckless driving situation. He's a wonderful "reckless driving attorney ".I would definitely use him again and recommend him to others.
Finally a lawyer who's worth their
fee and will represent a defendant like they're suppose to. Reckless driving on top of a triple digit speedo... Tom kept me out of the steel bar motel as well as the hassle of any out of state court appearances. He delivered.

Tom was my traffic attorney and was very patient throughout the entire court process. We had to delay my court case due to numerous reasons including not having the best outcome during the first hearing. The judge in my case was very strict with CDL holders but after some suggestions from Tom, we ultimately got my case dismissed! Highly recommend Tom and I will be in touch with him for any future cases.
I had gotten a speeding ticket while driving from out of state and Tom was beyond helpful. He explained all my options and was very kind. Since I live out of state and tom represented me I didn’t have to travel back for court which was a huge relief. I highly recommend Tom Barbour to anyone in Virginia he went above and beyond for me!
A great lawyer for Reckless Driving cases!
Was in need of an excellent criminal attorney for my son. He is a college student in Richmond, VA and got himself into criminal difficulty for the first time. We did not have any first hand experience up close and personal with the criminal justice system so it was very overwhelming all around.
Did a lot of research and numerous consultations with lawyers and firms. Initially settled on one and contracted with him based on the reputation of his firm. Was not happy with his lack of communication and inability to reach him directly- always an assistant who at times seemed bothered with our questions and need for updates.
Then I found Tom Barbour. He was very accessible- answered our initial call on a Saturday and spoke at length. He was thorough and direct. He was up front that he was not sure he could get the case dismissed but he would try. He took on the case in Richmond as well as a related separate case where we live.
Long story short, the separate case has been dismissed, and the Richmond case is pending dismissal upon completion of in progress remediation- expected January 2026. He is also offering a path for expungement.
I cannot say enough about Tom. He is professional, knowledgeable and very direct. He was able to broker the agreement for dismissal meeting with both the prosecutor and law enforcement. He was very frank with my son directing him in what to do if he wanted the best outcome for his situation.
If you are reading this you are most likely in a similar situation we were in about six months ago. Do not hesitate to contact Tom Barbour.

Tom Barbour is the lawyer everyone needs if you get pulled over in Virginia. I mean, I was given a ticket for reckless driving because I drove over the speed limit. Tom took my case and turned it into a non moving violation. No points, no jail time, no loss of license, etc. kudos to his firm you’ll.

“It was a pleasure working with reckless driving Attorney Barbour on my reckless driving case. He was very easy to work with, professional, and understanding throughout the entire process. Thanks to his expertise, I received the best possible outcome. Highly recommend!”
Need a reckless driving attorney....call Tom Barbour!! He was very pleasant to work! He wa able to take my reckless driving charge and have it lowered to improper driving. I would highly recommend him!! He works for you!
I found myself in a situation that seemed very unfair and unusual. I am so glad that I called Tom! He guided me on what actions to take and what actions to not take. I was facing a serious charge that was unfounded and wrong but it still would have messed up my life. Thanks to Tom's guidance I believe I avoided and unnecessary bullet. I did not necessarily do a lot of research in finding him but I am so glad that I did find him. Highly recommended!!
Response from the owner:Hey, Kevin – thank you so much for your kind review! Your situation is a great example of what can be accomplished in litigation when clients reach out to their attorneys as soon as something goes wrong in their lives. I was so honored to help you navigate a serious investigation and then represent you in court as your traffic attorney to get the matter dismissed. You've got my cell – please stay in touch!
I had the opportunity to work with Tom, and I was truly impressed by his attention to detail. He carefully considered the information I provided as well as the details from the other side, demonstrating his deep knowledge of the law across multiple areas. Beyond his legal expertise, Tom is a great humanitarian who genuinely cares about his clients. I would not hesitate to hire him again and highly recommend him to anyone in need of assistance.
He is your ideal criminal defense attorney!
He is your ideal criminal defense attorney!
Response from the owner:Antwan! Thank you for your kind words and for the incredible opportunity to right this wrong for you. I am so proud that we got your cases dismissed and reduced by doing the investigative work and engaging in the advocacy necessary to ensure law enforcement, the prosecutors, and the judge understood you were subject to a false accusation. Truth won out – as it should. I remain grateful for that experience, as you've become a valued client in other legal matters and I am honored to serve you. You've got my cell, and I hope you will always call or text whenever you need anything – please stay in touch!
Tom worked as my criminal defense attorney when I was baselessly charged with a major felony for a crime I did not commit. From the day I was charged, he worked tirelessly to press for the most favorable release conditions while awaiting trial, to argue for dismissal at each court hearing, and to gather evidence of my innocence in preparation for presenting the case. Ultimately, because of his zealous defense, the prosecution fully dropped the charges against me with no plea deal or other adverse outcome. Tom then assisted me in successfully pursuing the expungement of the charges from my record. I cannot recommend Tom highly enough; he was, at all times, respectful, competent, engaged, and sensitive to how stressful this situation was to me and my family. There is nobody I would rather have as an advocate and attorney. Tom Barbour is who you need in your corner.
Hands down the BEST reckless driving attorney you can get.
Mr. Barbour was super friendly and straightforward from the start. He told me exactly what I needed to do and walked me through the process. Honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. 100% recommend if you’re looking for someone who knows what they’re doing and actually gets results.

Tom Barbour was referred to me by a friend and calling him was the best decision I could make.
Not only did he take the case he listened. Being heard in any courtroom means a lot to the defendant.
He took me from the beginning of my case to the end-which meant walking me through the expungement.
If you are looking for the best expungement attorney you can stop looking because you found him - Attroney Tom Barbour!

Response from the owner:Tanya! What a wild situation we had together: you are so deserving of the dismissal and expungement we were able to achieve for you. It's disappointing to me that our criminal justice system ever charged you with a criminal offense for what occurred and that the prosecutors didn't want to simply agree immediately to expunge your arrest record. As your criminal defense attorney and your expungement lawyer, I am so proud of the work we did to get your case dismissed and your criminal record expunged. I know we will be staying in touch, and I am excited about your future!
Thank you for providing excellent service as an expungement attorney in resolving my expungement situation. I appreciate all your professional help and highly recommend you as an expungement attorney.
Tom was a fantastic traffic attorney and very communicative. I was in an accident and was cited for failure to yield and was quite anxious on how it would affect my driving record as someone that has had a perfect record up until then. Tom explained the process and eased my nerves and my case ended with a dismissal! I would recommend Tom to anyone in the area that needs legal assistance.
Tom Barbour is a fantastic reckless driving attorney. Tom took on my case and gave great guidance for the best possible outcomes. And great news, my case was dismissed after I followed his advice! I highly recommend Tom if you want the best results for your case.
Had a reckless driving ticket tom did a wonderful job communicating and informing me. He got the case dismissed and was a wonderful lawyer will use again in the future if needed
Reckless Driving Lawyer, Tom Barbour helped me win! I did the things he told me to do.
I had my charges reduced down from reckless driving. I received NO criminal conviction and no points against my insurance.
I would highly recommend his services if you find yourself in Virginia, and get snagged!

Tom is an awesome criminal defense lawyer! He exceeded my expectations in every aspect. Not only did he answer calls promptly but he even took time on the weekend and made sure I was 100% ready for the upcoming case. Highly recommend, he is the best!

I want to express my gratitude for Tom. He went above and beyond when it came to his time effort and efficiency. He is very detailed and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anybody seeking legal counsel.

Response from the owner:Joseph – I was so honored to represent you! And I greatly enjoyed working with you and your family. As a trial attorney, I focus on representing clients who have good stories to tell – in landlord tenant disputes, that means I only represent tenants. As is too often the case, you were victimized by a predatory landlord and then subjected to litigation pressed by a firm focused on dollars and not sense. By standing our ground, and forcing an initial dismissal of your case, we were able to secure a settlement on terms amenable to you. I am so glad this is all behind you – and I wish you the absolute best for happiness and success in your future. Please stay in touch!
Choosing the right attorney is absolutely crucial, and my family couldn’t be more grateful for the representation we received from Tom Barbour. As a student defense attorney, Tom consistently demonstrated genuine compassion, professionalism, and deep expertise throughout the entire process. He guided our family through every complicated step of the legal process with care and commitment, always keeping us informed and supported. Thanks to his dedication and skill, we felt confident and protected throughout a very difficult time. We wholeheartedly recommend Tom Barbour to any family in need of an exceptional criminal defense attorney.
I had an excellent experience working with Tom as my reckless driving attorney. He provided extreme help at an affordable price and used his vast knowledge of the law to customize strategies for my specific situations. Even when I had multiple court dates and cases stacking up, he formulated amazing plans and handled all three of them very well. Thanks to his expertise in traffic court, I was able to get the best outcomes in each case and avoid any form of criminal conviction. I would highly recommend Tom to anyone looking for reliable and skilled legal representation.
I will always recommend him !! He’s very detailed and very dedicated ! A few years ago he worked very hard on my case and the end result was not only impressive but just showed that he had my best interest thru and thru, I will always recommend.
Response from the owner:I was so proud to get your case dismissed, Ms. Smith – especially after such a fight! Your vehicle was illegally searched, and we filed and argued a Motion to Suppress to protect your rights in multiple courts. Because of the aggressive defense we mounted on your behalf, prosecutors finally gave up and dismissed the charge. Throughout this entire ordeal, I was so impressed at your patience and grace under pressure. As a criminal defense attorney, it’s always rewarding to defend a client willing to stand their ground. I’m excited to see what’s in store for you next as you set off on your new career. Please stay in touch and I’ll always look forward to hearing from you!
Tom Barbour was my student defense attorney for a deeply complicated and sensitive case with my university. I can't express enough how grateful I am for his help. Through my university targeting and wrongfully arresting me, Mr. Barbour guided and represented me both in my university conduct dispute and the criminal-civil cases connected to it, which ultimately led to the expungement of my record. He handled the case with the care and sympathy it needed; I have a lot of trust in Mr. Barbour that was absolutely well earned.
Response from the owner:No doubt, yours was one of the most complex engagements I've been involved with recently, Salina – in terms of both the breadth of the litigation and the significant personal impact it was having on you. As your criminal defense attorney, your student defense attorney, and your expungement attorney – I am so excited that we were able to get your criminal case dismissed, your expungement granted to protect your record, and that you are back at school. We were litigating in multiple forums – the Title IX proceeding, and the criminal and civil courts in Richmond – and employing creative procedural tactics to fight back against an abusive counterparty and uncaring systems. Thank you for trusting me to serve you and for relying on me to help get your life back on track. I'm proud to know you – call me, anytime. I’m excited to see what’s in store for you!
Tom Barbour was the best of the best. He represented me as my criminal lawyer. He insured that I knew exactly what was happening at each step of my case. He assured that I was knowledgeable about any terms that could possibly be used or talked about during my case. Tom went above and beyond his call of duty and it was so well appreciated. I would recommend him 1000 times over.. Thanks again
Response from the owner:I'm grateful you were so satisfied with my services, Ms. Pope – because it was my pleasure to serve as your criminal defense attorney! Getting your cases dismissed remains a highlight of my practice: you were innocent of the charges, and a wrongful conviction would have had devastating consequences. I'm honored to have made a positive impact in your life, and I hope you will please stay in touch!

Life-Changing Experience with Tom Barbour! I cannot express how grateful I am for the incredible work Tom Barbour did in helping me secure my expungement. From our very first consultation, Tom took the time to listen to my story, explain the process thoroughly, and answer all of my questions with patience and compassion. His expertise and dedication were clear every step of the way, and he made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and full of hope.
What truly stood out was Tom’s genuine care and determination to help me move forward with my life. He went above and beyond to ensure that my case was handled efficiently, always keeping me updated and guiding me through the complexities of the legal system with confidence. Thanks to his hard work, I now have a fresh start, and it feels like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

Response from the owner:I always love serving clients as an expungement attorney, John – so your words of encouragement mean a great deal to me! As a trial lawyer, I am often in the position of defending people and getting them back to neutral. But when I can help a client with an expungement, it means I'm clearing their record and putting them in an even better position in their life. Thank you for the opportunity to do that for you: we had to litigate the petition to trial and ultimately won over the objection of the Commonwealth because we organized great witnesses to tell the story of what you've accomplished on your path to a successful future. I'm so glad the Judge agreed with us! Stay in touch, John – I'm excited to hear about what’s in store for you next.
Mr. Barbour is attentive, empathetic and geared towards success for families! Would recommend a million times over. Consistent and honorable.
Excellent criminal defense attorney., thorough and competent. My case was was ultimately dismissed due to Mr. Barbour's diligence.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind feedback, Davis! Your case presented with multiple defenses — procedurally, legally, and not least of all your factual innocence of the charge. In such complex situations, retaining an attorney who can manage intersecting opportunities to protect their client is crucial. I’m so honored you chose me to represent you. You’ve got my cell if anything comes up and I hope you’ll please stay in touch. I wish you the best for your continuing success and happiness!
The world needs more Tom Barbour's. Great attorney who cares for his clients. So grateful and blessed that I had him on my side years ago when I had to deal with a situation that came out of nowhere... such an amazing person and attorney. If you are in a legal situation and need help, please reach out to him..he will do whatever he can to help you...I promise.... Thank you again, Tom!
Response from the owner:Your opinion means the world to me, Suzanne – thank you for your comments! As your criminal defense attorney, I was grateful for the opportunity to serve you by getting your case dismissed. It was evident to me at the outset of our engagement that your situation required great attention and care. I'm so glad you felt I was able to provide such a positive experience for you. Never hesitate to call me – please stay in touch!
I cannot speak more highly of Tom Barbour, both as a person and an employment attorney. What first struck me about Tom was the care and attention he gave to my employment matter from the very first phone call. He addressed my concerns knowledgeably and strategically while understanding and navigating the emotional side of what was an extremely difficult moment in life. Throughout our entire engagement, Tom was a consistent and reassuring presence for both myself and my family, time and again walking us through the painful psychological process of workplace conflict.
Response from the owner:Trevor, I'm so appreciative for your thoughtful feedback – thank you! Your experience with me shows that there are two types of good lawyers: those who do quality legal work and those who care deeply about their clients. In my practice, I always aim to do both – and I'm so glad you felt that throughout our engagement.

Served as defense on a charge brought against me due to my then-employer’s error. Mr. Barbour is experienced, well-connected within the local judicial system, and took time to understand the details of my case and assist me 1-on-1 in completing necessary paperwork for my expungement. He saw me through until my record was cleared, and I am happy to move on with my life and new job!
Response from the owner:Eric! What a wonderful review – thank you for sharing your experience with me. As both your criminal defense attorney and your expungement lawyer, it was exciting to serve you throughout the entire process of getting your case dismissed in court and then ensuring the records were expunged and cleared from your personal history. What happened to you wasn't your fault, and I was honored to be a part of righting that wrong. I wish you the best for your future success and I hope that you'll please call my cell if you need anything else.
Mr Barbour represented me on several cases and if i could give him 10 stars, I would. Very caring and efficient. Go above and beyond for his clients. Great attorney to have in your corner.
Response from the owner:Mario! What a wild set of cases we defended – you were subject to a wrongful identification and unfounded allegations from a complainant who was misusing the criminal court system to harass you. I was honored to be your criminal defense attorney, and it was exciting when we got your charges dismissed. Thank you for sharing your experience with me – it’s humbling to hear you felt so well represented. You’ve got my cell, please call if you ever need anything at all!
