Reckless driving ticket

Mark was wonderful, easy to talk to, and informative about my case. I felt very confident that all was going to okay.

Fantastic Lawyer!!

Mr. Earley represented me for a reckless driving charge, 96mph in a 55mph zone. Throughout the entire process, he was extremely helpful. Mr. Earley took all my questions with patience, did a great job explaining the process, and had a solid game plan in place for us. The day of the case, he did fa...ntastic to get us the result we were looking for. I definitely could not have done this myself. Mr. Earley was worth every penny. He really did advocate for me to the best of his ability and treated me as if he’d treat a family member. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Honest

Mr. Early came with a set price that was worth it. Even though I was concerned that they would take my license he stood strong and sure. Mine was in an usual case due to the oversight of the officer during paperwork. Mr. Early could have tried his hand and had it thrown out but being wise and honest ...he confronted the D A with the information. I do think that his move had a lot of sway in the final decision. A reckless driving ticket that may have been undeserved but unable to fight was turned into Driving School and wiped from my record. He kept me up-to-date with any new information and made sure to follow up with me afterwards. He made sure that I was in a position to sign up for my class and was very clear about the consequences. I wish to receive my gun rights back and it is his firm that I will hire. Things may not always work out how you want them to but with Mr Early you have a Fighting Chance

Highly Recommend

Had a great experience with Earley Legal group- took care of my case and I didn't even have to come to court. My reckless ticket got reduced to regular speeding. Was honest, and I really liked his staff, they always called me back, and answered all my questions- and I had a lot of them.

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.
