King & Campbell P

Divorce
At King, Campbell, Poretz, and Mitchell, we provide a wide array of legal services to North Virginians. Our legal team is comprised of criminal attorneys with prosecutorial and public defender experience, an attorney who focuses strictly on divorce and family law, estate planners, and civil attorneys who handle a variety of disputes, civil claims, and litigation matters. As a full-service law firm to the communities in our region, our team is backed by decades of professional experience that can meet all needs in both state and federal courts.
Child Support
Divorce. We address the issues of child support and visitation, finances, and property settlement agreements to help resolve the concerns of our clients. If possible, we suggest our clients work to resolve their matters out of court. This is not always possible, and, in that case, we will assertively represent our clients in court.
Child Custody and Visitation
Temporary orders (including Emergency Protective Orders and Preliminary Protective Orders) are issued as the result of an ex parte hearing â€“ meaning that the judge or magistrate hears only one side of the story â€“ and require only a showing of probable cause. Protective Orders typically contain severe conditions, such as no contact, no return to a residence, and temporary child custody.
Premarital Agreement
Prenups are more common than you think. Contrary to popular belief, you donâ€™t have to be famous or wealthy to need a premarital agreement.
Guardianship
Mr. Poretz regularly serves courts throughout Northern Virginia as a Guardian ad litem, has litigated dozens of guardianship & conservatorship matters and counsels families concerned with exploitation of disabled or elderly persons.
Spousal Support
Spousal Support: Virginia permits both temporary and permanent spousal support depending based on factors that include the duration of the marriage, the parties' individual incomes and earning capacities, as well as their standard of living throughout the marriage.
Child Abuse
Joe is a veteran trial attorney that has served as counsel or co-counsel in over two hundred trials. Â He has defended at trial allegations of capital and first-degree murder, federal conspiracy and trafficking charges, embezzlement, armed robbery, felony child neglect, felony assault, felony sex charges, and other felonies as well as numerous misdemeanor matters such as DUI, assaults, larceny, identity fraud, and other criminal allegations.Â (DISCLAIMER: CASE RESULTS DEPEND UPON A VARIETY OF FACTORS UNIQUE TO EACH CASE AND PAST CASE RESULTS DO NOT GUARANTEE OR PREDICT A SIMILAR RESULT IN ANY FUTURE CASE) Â He and/or his trial teams have securedÂ acquittals, dismissals, or reduced charges in dozens of litigated criminal matters, including charges of murder, federal drug conspiracy charges, armed robbery, felony child neglect, felony assault, felony sex charges, and many DUI and other misdemeanor matters.

Criminal Defense
The attorneys at KCP have served as local and lead counsel numerous times, concerning a variety of civil and criminal matters, in the Eastern District of Virginia.
DUI/DWI
DUI is a serious offense that can lead to varying penalties that can have a dramatic impact on your life. Having experienced legal representation is key to ensuring you are seeking the best possible result, whether a case dismissal, reduction of charges, or acquittal in court.
Wrongful Death
We are also proud to represent administrators and executors administering decedentâ€™s estates related to wrongful death, personal injury, or class action lawsuits and to guardians of minorsâ€™ estates.
Traffic Violations
Our lawyers regularly defend reckless driving charges in all Northern Virginia jurisdictions as well as reckless charges that occur on the George Washington Parkway in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.
Sex Crimes
Most of us rightfully assume that rape, sodomy, and penetration with an object are the most serious sex crimes and they potentially carry 5 years to life in prison in Virginia. Virginia, however, has many sex crimes that carry severe legal consequences, including but not limited to registering as a sex offender and in certain extreme cases, indefinite civil commitment. The following blog discusses different types of sex crimes in Virginia, and under what circumstances they may result in felony charges.
Fraud
Criminal liability for PPP loan and/or EIDL fraud includes potential felony charges for making false statements to a financial institution (bank fraud) in violation of 18 USC Â§ 1344, wire fraud in violation of 18 USC Â§ 1343, and other potential charges. In addition to criminal penalties, a person that is the subject of a criminal prosecution for PPP loan or EIDL fraud faces restitution, forfeiture, and potentially fines.
Robbery
United States v. Dixon Â (4th Cir. No. 16-7752)(Jan. 7, 2020). In his 2255 motion, Dixon had challenged his firearm conviction under 18 U.S.C.Â Â§Â 924(c) (for possessing a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence where the underlying offense was a conspiracy to commit Hobbs Act robbery) as void based onÂ
Burglary
Prior to joining King Campbell Poretz & Mitchell, Eric was a prosecutor with the Loudoun County Commonwealthâ€™s Attorneyâ€™s Office for over eight years. During that time he tried over seventy-five jury trials and hundreds of bench trials. The criminal cases he handled were some of the most complex and important within Loudoun County over the past decade. He handled jury trials involving charges of murder, manslaughter, robbery, burglary, felony assault, illegal firearm possession, drug distribution, drug possession, DUI, felony DUI, reckless driving, and domestic assault, amongst others. This experience gave Eric an in-depth insight into how a case moves through the criminal justice system and how to interact and communicate effectively with all people involved including the courts, the police, and the attorneys.
White Collar Crimes
White collar crimes. These are nonviolent crimes that result in financial losses for alleged victims, such as embezzlement and fraud.
Theft
Misdemeanors
While we have significant experience defending serious federal cases, we also defend federal petty offenses and misdemeanors that occur on federal parklands, military bases and reservations.
Embezzlement
Our attorneys frequently undertake the defense of federal and state white collar investigations and criminal charges, including allegations of honest services fraud and bribery related to government contracts, mail and wire fraud, mortgage fraud, health care fraud, embezzlement, and other non-violent or financially related matters.
Drug Crimes
Firearms offenses, including possession and use of firearms in furtherance of drug trafficking, false statements on ATF forms to obtain firearms, and other firearm offenses
Assault
It should be kept in mind, however, that sexual battery is sometimes improperly charged by magistrates that do not understand the law. As held by Virginia appellate courts, sexual battery requires evidence of more force than the force necessary to accomplish the touching itself. See e.g. Johnson v. Commonwealth, 5 Va. App. 529, 534 (1988). In other words, â€œunless some force is used to overcome the will of the complaining witness, the unlawful touching constitutes common law assault and battery.â€ Id. (emphasis added). Furthermore, evidence that the defendant purportedly acted without warning or provocation cannot satisfy the â€œforceâ€ element of sexual battery. Woodard v. Commonwealth, 27 Va. App. 405 (1988).
Murder
Itâ€™s a Class 1 felony. In order to qualify as aggravated murder the killing must be willful, deliberate, premeditated, and must be the killing of a...
Identity Theft
Homicide
King Campbellâ€™s team of highly-skilled defense attorneys understands whatâ€™s at stake in a homicide case and has the knowledge and experience.
Restraining Order
Protective orders, also called â€œrestraining orders,â€ are commonly issued in domestic violence cases. These orders are meant to do exactly what they say: to protect family and household members from threats of violence and actual violent acts committed against them in a domestic setting. The orders â€œrestrainâ€ the implicated/alleged abuser from making any contact with the protected person and his or her family and prohibit any further threats or violence against them. They may also include other restrictions and orders imposed by the court. Should the person named in the order violate any of its orders or restrictions, it can result in criminal charges.
Kidnapping
Manslaughter
Voluntary, involuntary, and DUI involuntary manslaughter are all Class 5 felonies, and the penalty can be felony conviction with one to 10 years in prison or a lessened penalty of up to 12 months in jail and/or a fine of up to $2,500.
Internet Crimes
Prior to joining King, Campbell, Poretz & Mitchell, Steve served as an Assistant Commonwealthâ€™s Attorney for Fairfax County. In that role, Steve prosecuted serious felonies including murder, DUI manslaughter, traffic fatalities, drug distribution, internet crimes against children, malicious wounding, and gang-related crimes. Steve understands every facet of the trial process for serious criminal offenses and can analyze and identify potential issues in any criminal case. His prior experience as a major-crimes prosecutor gives him a unique insight that is very beneficial to his clients.
Prostitution
Hit and Run
Joe has represented hundreds of clients charged with DUI/DWI as well as other traffic offenses, including allegations of DUI-related manslaughter, felony DUI, felony eluding, felony hit & run, and reckless driving. Even though Joe and his firm engaged in serious felony defense, he has maintained a focus on defending DUI cases, which may have many technical and constitutionally based defenses. He has authored numerous motions to suppress and limit evidence as well as motions to dismiss. Â Relatedly, he is the co-author of two chapters of a leading Virginia treatise on DUI and traffic defense.Â

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
Corporate law regulates the ways in which employees, investors, shareholders, and others involved within an organization or corporation interact with one another. Disagreements come up, and theyâ€™re generally handled through business litigation. Therefore, hiring an attorney to help specifically with commercial litigation helps protect your interests.
Business Formation
Business Disputes
Contracts only work when both parties agree to its terms and conditions. When one or more parties has an issue, a contract dispute can lead to a contentious court battle. Letâ€™s take a look at the most common contract disputes and to prevent potential issues.
Intellectual Property
Unfair Competition
Commercial litigation. Commercial or corporate litigation can be based on diverse disputes, such as antitrust cases, breach of duty, breach of contract, debtor-creditor matters, insurance disputes, fraud allegations, product liability claims, shareholder issues, unfair competition claims, and more.
Antitrust

Employment Litigation
Business law. This area of law handles all of the legal matters and challenges business owners face, such as business formation, contractual issues, employment issues, compliance with state or federal regulations, operational challenges, partnership or corporate disputes, and more.

Real Estate Litigation
Premises Liability
Construction Litigation
Land Use and Zoning
The firmâ€™s civil litigators have prosecuted and defended multifarious civil matters including a variety of commercial disputes, negligence, and intentional torts, real property, and land use issues, contract and will contests, and fiduciary concerns.
Landlord-Tenant Disputes
Landlord-tenant disputes. We handle disputes related to laws that protect both landlords and tenants, including eviction matters, rental agreement and lease violations, and more.
Property Damage
Civil law is a broad area that handles and regulates the rights and duties of individuals in relationship to one another outside of the criminal justice system. Where criminal cases involve the alleged violations of criminal laws and their penalties, civil law generally involves disputes or alleged injuries or wrongs (also called torts) in which financial damages are sought or court orders are issued for the performance of a duty or cessation of some activity. These cases can involve conflicts over contracts, property, family relationships, and wrongs that cause bodily injury or property damage, and more.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
If you have thought about what your family would do with your estate if you were to pass away unexpectedly, you have probably searched for an estate planning checklist. Losing a loved one is stressful and dealing with an estate that was not well-planned for can create extra headaches for your loved ones.
Wills
A last will and testament is a document that states the testatorâ€™s desires for the disposition of their property (including tangible personal property, real estate, monetary assets, even intellectual property) following their death.
Trusts
Meeting with a financial planner will allow you to assess your net worth, assets and debts included. You can then make life insurance plans to account for any debt you may leave behind. A revocable living trust may be needed to help protect your assets from probate.
Power of Attorney
Whenever we have a client who requests a simple will or trust, we almost always recommend a power of attorney and advance medical directive as well. A will or trust covers the distribution of your assets when youâ€™re dead, but a power of attorney covers your financial and legal affairs while youâ€™re alive in the event that you become incapacitated.
