Posted by anonymous | December 22, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

5 stars!!

If you have to deal with some extremely creative cop that turns your speeding ticket into bunch of other violations, Steven A Garner is the man you are looking for. You call him once and that is pretty much all. He takes care of everything. Always respond to phone calls which is quite rare nowadays. ...I hope I will never have to hire a lawyer again but if I do, I'll definitely call this man.

Domestic violence and Traffic violation

He reviewed two cases very diligently and made plans accordingly how to defend. Those plans worked and two cases were dismissed. Pretty happy with the outcomes.

Delivered exactly as I had hoped

I was facing up to 10 points on my license for my first ever traffic violation. Thanks to Steve I was able to get that down to two plus a smaller fine than I was initially supposed to get. He was very easy to deal with, knows his stuff incredibly well and answered all of the questions I had. Would hi...ghly recommend him for any traffic violation.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
