Carroll & Nuttall, PC

John Carroll has been a lawyers since I was 19 and I trust him with my life, he’s an attorney that can deliver results and doesn’t promise the world and gives you realistic potential outcomes based on facts of whatever matter you might go through in life. I had the honor of working with Brandon Shapiro in my most recent matter which was my moms divorce aka family law. Mr Shapiro is detail oriented, fights for his clients and delivers results! He is the best and only family attorney I recommend in this firm. After seeing how he cross examined and how knowledgeable he is about the law, I would use his services for criminal matters, family law, estate planning etc. John Carroll and Brandon Shapiro are the top 2 attorneys in the commonwealth of Virginia

About 8 years ago, I was a real knucklehead and got a DUI and a few other charges. Ed Nuttall truly cared for me and the outcome of my case. He argued for me, spoke to the DA and the judge about my character. He truly gave it his all.

I had a DUI and several other charges. I thought for sure I was going to jail and losing my license. Ed was able to keep me out of jail, get my other charges dropped and I kept my license.

A few months later, I got a reckless driving while my other charges were still pending. Ed was able to postpone my court dates and maneuver my cases so the judges didn’t see what an idiot I had been.

But most importantly, Ed took me aside and asked me what was going on in my life, what was going on in my head. Why was I making these idiotic choices? Why was I throwing my life away?

He gave me a come to Jesus moment that I will never forget and I’m so eternally grateful that he took the time to talk to me.

He truly cared about me as a young man and why I was going in such a negative direction. I owe Ed so much. He’s a saint. He truly is a sweet and wonderful man that cares about his clients and does his very best for them.

He’s one of the best men I know and I’m totally undeserving and blessed that he took my cases and went out on a limb to keep me from behind bars.

Since my last case, I’ve gotten my life together and I never want to see Ed again because of the talking to he gave me. He’s a great man. If you’re in desperate need, hire Ed Nuttall.

Ed Nuttall was recommended to me by someone I hold in very high regard and after one phone call (after shopping around a bit), I knew that Ed was going to be my attorney. I handed him a messy situation (over 100 mph with a recent heavy prior) and he responded with immediate candor and solid direction. His knowledge of the players (judges and prosecutors), the current climate of the Fairfax Co. Judicial system/process, and overall work ethic and knowledge is to be commended and, certainly, admired by his clients. All I can say is... Thank you Ed Nuttall!!

Attorney Brandon Shapiro is a godsend! He helped my family with two serious charges from 2020 and won a not guilty verdict on both counts yesterday in a jury trial! Brandon has been nothing but helpful, caring, patient and honest with us throughout this whole difficult ordeal. His legal strategy, research and manner in court was amazing and made all the difference. Even after the trial was won he was helpful in answering all our questions and making sure that we can sleep easy again. My family is indebted to him and Carroll & Nuttall, they are amazing lawyers and we wish them all the best!

Ed and team are simply AMAZING!!!! I feel so blessed that God put them in our path. Super knowledgeable, kind and honorable. They are very respected in the courts.

We hired Ed Nuttall to represent us in a case that had been causing us great stress. Because of Ed's decades of legal experience, he knew exactly how to handle the situation and he told us up front how he thought it would play out. He was correct at every turn. While Ed's experience gives him great confidence and ease, he is kind, empathetic, and understanding. He was able to deal with several members of opposing council and get the result we wanted. Ed's legal advice and strategies turned out to be spot on and his negotiating skills were impressive. Anyone who can secure his counsel is extremely fortunate.

When it comes to Mr. Carroll I could honestly write a whole book on how amazing of an attorney he is. He has fought for me since day 1. He genuinely cares for all his clients no matter how big or small of a case. His staff is just as amazing! Never once have I had a problem with him or the staff or the outcome of my case. Everyone I come across who needs legal advice is coming straight to the offices of Carroll and Nuttall, where they will fight with and for you.

We hired Mr Nuttall to help us with a case recently, and are glad we did! He was always very responsive to our requests to meet, made sure explained all the possibilities of our case as things developed, and patiently answered all of our questions. We never felt rushed talking to him, even though we weren’t paying an hourly rate for our particular case. And in the end, he was able to negotiate a very favorable result for us, and we could not have been more pleased. I highly recommend hiring Mr Nuttall to represent you!

John is great at what he does. Keep in mind with the courts and the whole process, patience is key! Mr. John Carrol has been representing me since I was young. He been representing me for over 15 years now. he is the man not one time has he ever let me down his word is his bond and it is gold. I’ve never met any other attorneys that really cares . but could definitely vouch for Mr. Carrol. has never turned his back on me

thank you so much John you’ve been a blessing from God for me and my two babies

Ed Nuttal of Carroll and Nuttall was very effective and compassionate for our family needs. He worked diligently, and communicated with us throughout the process. I highly recommend this firm, and will not hesitate to hire them again if needed.

Ed Nuttall helped me out with a pretty scary situation for myself and my family. He stuck with me and was always available to speak with me at any time when I had questions about my case. Ed is extremely dedicated and professional, and went above and beyond to get the situation resolved for me.

I highly recommend this lawyer. After hiring him twice he worked very diligently and at his best to help my son's cases. When he spoke to the judge about my sons case I feel like the lawyer is the best in the field. Thank you so much John Carroll for the help! -Imelda Alam

I wish I could give 100 stars!! John Carroll and his team have helped me out in many different cases; from personal, to business! Always looking for my best interest! Thank you again!!!!

Fantastic law firm with the best attorneys in each area of specialization. Fair, honest, responsive, trustworthy.

Giving attorneys a good name.

Great legal services!

Thank you John!!

You are better off hiring Saul Goodman than this guy. My mother knew this guy personally from her time working as a Paralegal in Fairfax and he definitely "negotiated" a sham of a deal with the Prince William Country Commonwealth Attorney and after taking the initial $10,000.00 suggested I "take the deal and figure it out as I'm a bright young man." Scumbag attorney that is not worth a single penny of your money as once that check cashes, he does not give a single damn. I've heard the horror stories of other clients over the years and I strongly advise anyone to do their research and avoid this man at all costs.

Ed Nuttall worst lawyer in N. VA do not waste your money or time with him or that firm.
