Michael Huff

Michael Huff is a founding attorney at Huff Law, PLC, where he focuses exclusively on criminal defense, traffic violations, and DUI cases throughout Virginia. A seasoned trial lawyer, he represents clients facing charges ranging from misdemeanors to the most serious felony offenses, providing determined advocacy at every stage of the criminal process.

Michael earned his Juris Doctor from Washington and Lee University School of Law and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Christopher Newport University. He is admitted to the Virginia State Bar and the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.

Michael believes effective representation requires informed and engaged clients, and he takes the time to explain legal strategies, potential outcomes, and procedural steps in clear terms. His reputation for professionalism has earned him the respect of prosecutors, judges, and law enforcement across Hampton Roads and beyond.

Michael brings particular insight to cases involving foreign nationals. He understands that criminal convictions can carry severe immigration consequences and stays current on “crimmigration,” the intersection of criminal and U.S. immigration law. This knowledge allows him to pursue criminal resolutions that help clients avoid adverse immigration outcomes whenever possible.

Michael’s legal background includes internships with the Newport News Public Defender’s Office, the Newport News Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office, the Roanoke Attorney General’s Office, and Washington and Lee University’s Criminal Justice Clinic. He later practiced at an AV-rated criminal defense firm and co-founded a practice handling both criminal and immigration matters before establishing Huff Law.

Recognized for excellence in criminal and DUI defense, Michael Huff continues to provide fearless, detail-driven representation focused on protecting clients’ rights, freedom, and future.
