Andrew represents clients throughout Virginia on criminal and traffic charges and in civil protective order hearings.
Andrew joined Robinson Law after serving for ten years as a prosecutor in the Alexandria Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office, where he was a Senior Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney and headed the office’s White Collar/Fraud Unit.
Andrew began his career as Alexandria’s traffic prosecutor, gaining expertise in DUI law. He completed the Advanced DUI Training program in Williamsburg, VA and the Prosecutor Bootcamp at the National Advocacy Center in Columbia, SC.
Andrew’s criminal law experience runs the gamut of adult and juvenile crimes from DUI, reckless driving, and larceny to financial exploitation, child abuse, malicious wounding, robbery, and murder. From his decade-long experience as a prosecutor, Andrew knows how to respond to investigations, answer criminal charges, and stand strong in the courtroom. He has tried over 30 jury trials and hundreds of bench trials. Andrew has gained a reputation as a trusted advisor, a keen legal mind, and a skilled courtroom litigator.
From Virginia trial court to the U.S. Supreme Court, Andrew has fought for his client. He secured a denial of certiorari at the U.S. Supreme Court in Tyree v. Virginia, where he wrote the Commonwealth’s brief in opposition. And he persuaded the Virginia Court of Appeals to grant a pretrial appeal in Commonwealth v. Lemus, a felony DUI case where the circuit court had suppressed evidence. Agreeing with Andrew’s arguments, the Court of Appeals later reversed the circuit court.
Andrew loves to learn and teach the law. He coauthored a memo sent to all Virginia prosecutors analyzing how Birchfield v. North Dakota affected pending DUI cases. He has provided legal training to police officers on newly enacted laws, and he has taught DUI law to attendees of the Alcohol Safety Action Program. He taught high school students at the Alexandria Student Academy about the criminal justice system, and he presented to middle school students as part of the Virginia Bar Association’s Rule of Law Project.
In 2018, he received the City of Alexandria’s Ten Year Public Service Award.
Andrew lives in Fairfax County with his wife and five children. He coaches youth soccer every spring and fall. He was born on Constitution Day and is the son and grandson of Cuban and Irish immigrants.
