excellent lawyer
I had a dui over 5 years old. Officer put the tickets in the wrong name. I lived in Charlotte at the time and Ross took complete care of it to the point where I didnt have to make one court appearance. I'll never forget the day he called and told me I was free of all charges and free to renew my lice...

Mr. Hecht is an excellent trial attorney.
Mr. Hecht is a fantastic trial attorney. Even the judge in my sons case said Mr. Hecht gave the best closing arguement in the history of PG county. I thought so highly of him not only as a person but as an attorney I hired him again when my nephew got into trouble. He works very hard for his client...

Worst attorney I ever had
All he ever asked for was money and all he ever produced were promises and excuses to both the court and me as his client. Please run do not walk away from him.
