Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 18/04/20263/ (Some counties will have as many as 5 or 6 judges… but lots of them only have one or two. And in the ones with two, they get upset if you try to judge shop - even if one of the judges will get your client the better outcome 100% of the time.) 010
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 18/04/20262/ And once a certain court rules a certain way, for those in their district, it’s likely they will keep ruling that way. Especially if, as in VA, there is just one judge who regularly sits in that county. So if Roberts seems to think that makes sense, that just … tracks. 120
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 18/04/2026For all intents and purposes… yes. Most of the time. If only because most people cannot afford the astronomical cost of an appeal. A cost largely due to the expenses that aren’t even the attorneys fees - such as the way in VA an appeal must be organized before you even have the opportunity to argue. 130
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 18/04/2026Just remembering this exists. When work gets busy, I tend to disappear from social media. My clients come first 🤷🏻♀️ which is extremely unlikely to change any time soon. Also, the world’s still on fire and work reminds me of that enough, some days. It’s easier to check out for a while after I’m done. 010
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 08/01/2026Clients like this are what keeps me going - this individual has completely turned things around and begun to build a life they are excited to live. And I’m grateful that they won’t have their feet kicked out from under them just as they are starting starting to find them. 000
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 08/01/2026I had an amazing outcome in court today. The judge gave my client no active time on a charge with guidelines of 1y6m to 3y8m. This client is in recovery from SUD and has been doing amazingly, clean for the longest period of their life. And I’m so happy them will be able to keep building a life. 200

Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 17/10/20252/2: I am only licensed in VA so the offer is for those in the greater Richmond area or within an hour of it. You can write the firm’s number on your arm - I’ll be answering if I can but if I don’t, please leave a message and I will call right back. Our number is 804-292-0550. 020
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 17/10/20251/2: So Saturday is the No Kings protest. Once again, if things go badly, I will be doing sliding scale and (where possible) free representation for anyone who runs into trouble. Please remember holding your phone up to your face to unlock it is legal (so turn off FaceID if you bring it). 120
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 03/10/2025Honestly, I've found their help files to be surprisingly intuitive. But the best hints would be from my staff, who cleaned up our use significantly. So my best trick - let the staff set it up to suit their needs and then adjust to your specific needs from there. 030
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 24/09/2025But for some attorneys, in particular those doing appeals, 95-100% can be the research and writing aspects. Especially if you work with an attorney who is happy to do the in-court portion. But for that, you could also be a paralegal. 100
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 24/09/2025That said, the cost of law school is high, so definitely worth doing an internship or working at a law firm for a bit to make sure you will enjoy it. I love my job - but I’ll likely never get out of debt for it. So it needs to be worth that. Attack librarian is still 100% my favorite job title. 200

Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 25/07/2025In all honesty, all that federal funding and regulation is due to an extremely broad definition for the Commerce Clause of the constitution. This is just taking that to its ultimate extreme. Which isn’t to say I don’t find that terrifying. 000

Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 26/06/2025Really not appreciating the part where ICE keeps showing up to the courthouse where I handle appointed cases. There was a protest about it today, but I'm not sure what that achieves. Most of the jails are actively cooperating with the round up of innocent (unless proven guilty) people to "deport". 100
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 14/06/2025Thanks @arthfach.com Our number is 804-292-0550. Please take it with you if you are protesting in the Richmond area. Hopefully it’s completely unneeded, but just in case I will do my best to be available today. If you get our voicemail, please leave a message, I will be checking them. 023
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 14/06/2025A brief reminders for those protesting today: set your phone for a lock code only if you bring it with you, and take my office number if you’re in the Richmond vicinity. I will handle protester cases for free where possible, at a discounted rate if not. 0116
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 20/05/2025This article is about how a vehicle hit a logging truck and the driver was killed by the logs coming through the windshield. 000
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 20/05/2025Ok, this is not ok. My entire generation’s phobias of these things not being safe to drive behind have now been vindicated. And also… how is it possible that we transport things in such a badly designed manner when the logging industry is massive and makes a fortune destroying the planet?!wric.com 100

Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 17/05/2025Since this is in the news again, why you shouldn’t talk to cops: Talk to them 3 times, first time “I stopped at the store and picked up cupcakes”, 2nd you say cakes, 3rd you say dessert. Now you keep “changing your story” and that can be used against you. That you told the truth is no protection. 020

Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 28/03/2025Honestly... I was really wondering that. Genuinely. Because it just doesn't ... make sense. 000
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 28/03/2025Lately, it seems like when I get a response to a motion from the prosecutor's office, it feels like they really just did not read what I submitted. Which was short, to the point, and straightforward. And instead I get something where I have to go reread what I filed, because I feel crazy. #lawsky 010
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 22/03/2025Legally speaking, the government regulates every industry. Reality speaking? It’s not. At all. And it’s getting worse. They ended the situation by agreeing to do $40 million of unpaid work for the government, from what I saw. Bribery is still technically illegal. But as it was an “official act”… 000
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 22/03/2025I would like to know why I saw this headline on the US version at the top in the middle of the night but by the morning it was off the front landing screen for the US, but it’s still on the landing screen for the UK. This kind of filtering is what worries me. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...theguardian.comTrump revokes legal status of 530,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and VenezuelansMove takes effect on 24 April as president weighs also stripping parole status from some 240,000 Ukrainians in US 000

Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 17/03/2025I really wish Google would stop telling people how legal cases "usually go". Every single state is different, and federal is its own thing. I can't change venue in a criminal case absent 1) proof that the crime actually happened somewhere else or 2) proof a fair jury is impossible in the district. 030
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 15/03/2025That this is just some offhand comment I almost didn’t see is almost as scary as having that man control the programs that provide care to a huge percentage of disabled people in this country. From www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... 1266
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 15/03/2025 Dr. Oz, in his committee hearing to head Medicare and Medicaid, called maintaining good health a “patriotic duty”. This is the kind of language used to justify doing terrible things to disabled people, and deserves some scrutiny. This from the man who would control disabled people’s access to care. 1327484

Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 12/03/20253/ And I continue to fight to try to find ways to get the system to respond, or at least allow us to take care of this particular person's loved one. And I will keep doing that. But I wish I had the energy to fight the apathy as much as I fight individual cases of its effects. 020
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 12/03/20252/ Part of me wants to say 'I wish it was just your loved one, because malice I can fight'. But they can't hear that while they are scared for the person they love. The truth is, the apathy of the system is the true evil, and the fact that they all believe that it works for others is the problem. 121
Jessica Greenberg @greenberglawva.com · 12/03/2025Every time a client thinks their disabled, mentally ill or sick loved one is the only one the jail is neglecting, or that the prosecutor is treating their case uniquely by seeming to think their loved one's freedom and well-being doesn't matter just highlights for me how much we've all been lied to. 130
