Welcome

Nationally Renowned Washington, D.C., Criminal Defense Lawyer

At The Robinson & Kourtesis Law Firm, we know what it means to be in court fighting for your freedom. Our firm is nationally recognized for successful criminal defense trial representation.

Strong Criminal Defense Representation

Since 1975, Robinson & Kourtesis has been offering people the one thing they thought they lost after being charged with a crime: hope.

From our offices in Washington, D.C., we represent clients throughout the District of Columbia and nearby communities in Maryland and northern Virginia. Because we handle federal criminal defense cases, we often represent clients in U.S. District Courts throughout the eastern United States.

We have earned the AV rating* and have been named in the Best Lawyers in America reference guide.**

We are, above all else, a trial law firm. Senior partner Ken Robinson and our team have represented clients in more than more 2,000 jury trials. While we do resolve criminal cases through negotiation or plea bargains whenever this is preferable, we are not afraid of any courtroom or jury. We not only try cases — we win them on a consistent basis.

Federal criminal defense: Successful legal defense for serious complex federal white collar crime such as securities fraud, obstruction of justice, Homeland Security investigations, and Medicare and Medicaid fraud.

State felonies and misdemeanors: Aggressive defense of all other criminal charges on the state or Washington, D.C., court level, including DUI and traffic violations defense, drug charges, and homicide and violent crimes.

Complex civil litigation: In addition to criminal defense, attorney Ken Robinson has extensive trial skills and experience in lawsuits involving commercial and personal lawsuits.

No matter what charges you face or the evidence against you, we offer hope
