Criminal Defense Law Firm Headquartered in Alexandria Virginia Specializing in Representing Individuals in Serious Matters in State and Federal Court.                      

The Law Office of Christopher Leibig encourages all potential clients to become educated consumers before making a decision about who to hire for a criminal defense matter. Criminal defense, if done right, is a personal, and not a transactional business. As a general rule, lawyers who know what they’re doing do not hard-sell clients or demand money during an initial meeting or phone call.

The Law Office of Christopher Leibig represents individuals accused or being investigated for serious crimes and handles misdemeanor cases on a select basis. Chris began his career at the Office of the Public Defender for the City of Alexandria, where he worked from 1996-2002 handling all varieties of criminal cases from Driving While Intoxicated to Murder. Since entering private practice in 2002, he has practiced exclusively criminal defense. In 2002, he formed Leibig, Moseley, and Dillard. In 2005, he became partners with nationally known attorney John Zwerling in the firm Zwerling, Leibig, and Moseley. In 2012, he formed his own law firm. He works regularly with the members of his prior law firms, as well as The Law Office of Joni C. Robin, Johnson/Citronberg, and many other high-quality defense attorneys throughout Virginia. In cases that require more than one attorney, he selects co-counsel based upon the needs of the specific case at issue.

     Chris regularly handles serious and complex criminal defense matters during investigations, while charges are pending, and at trial. He has extensive experience handling appeals in matters handled originally handled by other attorneys.

     The philosophy of this firm is to avoid a “volume practice” and to employ a sophisticated, strategic approach.

     Chris is currently President-Elect of the Virginia Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.
