About Marina
Marina Medvin earned her law degree from George Mason University School of Law after completing a Bachelor of Science in Information Sciences and Technology at Pennsylvania State University. She entered the legal field with academic training that combined technical literacy and legal analysis. The two degrees inform how she approaches complex case details and procedural questions.
She founded MEDVIN LAW in 2009 and has built a practice that spans trial and appellate work. Over the years she secured admissions to several courts. Those include the District of Columbia and Virginia bars, the U.S. Supreme Court, the D.C. Circuit and the 4th Circuit, and the state bar of Texas. That range allows her to take on matters in both state and federal venues.
Her work covers criminal defense and appellate litigation. She represents clients in criminal matters at trial level and in appeals. She also handles procedural and jurisdictional issues that arise in federal courts. Court admissions for higher appellate levels give her a path to pursue cases beyond a single jurisdiction.
MEDVIN LAW is headquartered with an Alexandria criminal law office. The firm began as a small practice and expanded its reach by filing briefs and appearing in hearings across multiple circuits. She often manages cases that require coordination between state courts and federal appellate dockets. The practice handles investigations, pretrial motions, trials, and post-conviction proceedings when appropriate.
Colleagues and opposing counsel describe her style as direct and procedural. She writes briefs, argues motions, and prepares for hearings with an eye on appellate preservation. Her technical undergraduate background sometimes comes into play in cases that involve digital evidence or forensic questions. The combination of trial experience and appellate admissions shapes how cases are developed from a first appearance through potential appeals.
Clients find in her a lawyer who moves cases forward and pays attention to deadlines and court rules. She maintains a practice that combines courtroom representation with appellate advocacy. Today she continues to lead MEDVIN LAW and practices criminal defense and appellate litigation from her Alexandria office, extending representation to matters in the jurisdictions where she is admitted.
