Highly recommend for VA traffic court. Highly responsive, great service, and great results

Mark was one of 3 lawyers I did a phone consultation with when I realized that it would be wise to hire representation for my speeding ticket (80 in a 55), which in VA is very scarily a criminal offense (reckless driving) since it was more than 20 miles over the speed limit. Mark gave me the most co...mpetitive quote of any of the 3 lawyers I spoke with (flat $500), dissuaded me from doing some of the unnecessary extra tests that one of the other lawyers had suggested I do (e.g., another lawyer suggested I get my car calibrated from a shady-sounding calibration person that would make his report say something favorable to me). Mark was highly responsive via email, and got the job done -- showed up in court at the right day and at the right time, and successfully got my offense downgraded to a regular speeding ticket. I'd highly recommend Mark's services if you're looking for honest, straightforward, and effective representation.

Very Good Lawyer

Mark defended my son in a very serious traffic offense. He gave great advice and guidance; we prepared for the case; and he negotiated an extremely good agreement with the prosecutor. He is a really nice guy, in addition to being a good attorney, and I believe this helped him reach a good agreement... with the prosecutor.

Best lawyer I ever hired

I hired Mark for a speeding ticket I received, 40 in a 25mph zone (4 points). His communication via email was excellent and answered all of my questions within the day clearly and concisely. I could not attend the court date so Mark represented me instead. The ticket ended up being reduced to a "Town... Code Section-Failure to Pay Full Time and Attention." Because this is a town code, it won't even show up on my DMV driving history! The result was even better than I could imagine. I highly recommend this lawyer. Throughout our email conversations, I could tell he knows exactly what he is talking about. Best lawyer I ever hired.

Magnificent work for my RD charge

So got charged with RD in Prince William County, VA. I just got back from my second deployment and was on my way home to GA when I was caught going 88 in a 60 mph zone. I honestly didn't know what else to do but start calling around to a bunch of different lawyers located all over VA. I spoke with Ma...rk and I immediately had a really good feeling about him, he was confident and didn't "beat around the bush" I liked that. So when my court date come he went and represented me and was able to have the court agree to a driving course and a very small court fee. Folks if you're in a similar situation or have a RD charge on you, this is the guy you want. I was amazed by the results he presented. Thank you again Mark and take care!

Speeding Reckless Driving Case - Great Outcome

My case was a reckless driving due to speed ticket which is a criminal offense requiring a court appearance in Virginia - news to me as I am from out of state. Mr. Nicewicz appeared for me and it was reduced to speeding which is non-criminal. Mark was referred to me by a friend who had hired him in... the past with positive results. While always honest and straight forwardly covering all aspects of the case and possible outcomes, he remained positive and gave me solid advice on ways to improve my outcome. I followed his advice and the outcome was better than I expected. He charged a reasonable fixed fee to appear for me and handle the case. I strongly recommend him for traffic offenses, and based on his manner and results, would hire him again for other matters also. Excellent service at a reasonable price.
