About this firm

The law firm of Carluzzo Rochkind & Smith, P.C. was founded in 1987 by three lawyers coming from varied backgrounds, but sharing a common strength - experience in the courtroom. One partner was a former criminal prosecutor, another criminal defense attorney and the third a civil trial attorney. In the ensuing twenty years the firm has grown through the addition of attorneys having similar trial experience. Carluzzo Rochkind & Smith has attracted legal talent from law firms large and small, plaintiff and defense. As our office has grown we have developed close ties to the community we serve. We understand the values and interests of the citizens of Manassas, Prince William County and Northern Virginia. We also understand the challenges of businesses operating in the community.

We recognize that lawyers are often called on to serve as crisis managers. At Carluzzo Rochkind & Smith, we provide a full range of legal services to help you through those challenging times.
