Career

Eugene Gorokhov’s practice centers on federal white collar defense; he also represents physicians and other medical professionals in licensure and disciplinary proceedings.

Mr. Gorokhov’s record is defined by winning cases the government did not expect to lose. As lead counsel, he has secured jury acquittals in complex federal trials.  He has won outright pretrial dismissals of federal indictments on constitutional and procedural grounds.  And he has achieved favorable results in countless other cases.  Clients repeatedly describe him as a lawyer who takes over cases after others have failed and delivers outcomes that seemed impossible

That record has translated into deep client trust and recognition from peers. He has been selected to Super Lawyers each year from 2019 to 2025, placing him among the top 5% of attorneys as rated through that organization’s peer-review process, and he has also been named to the Legal 500 DC Elite for White Collar Crime and recognized as a Top Lawyer by Northern Virginia Magazine. Clients describe him in strikingly consistent terms: “experienced, patient, and calm under pressure,” “undoubtedly a superlawyer,” “the best among the best.” As one client put it, what stood out most was not just his skill but “how much he genuinely cares,” and always leaving them feeling that he “was personally invested in helping me and my family.”
