If you have been charged with reckless driving, hire Mr, Garrett Green right away.

Approximately two months ago, I was pulled over by Fairfax Police and was charged with Reckless driving and Aggressive driving. Given the seriousness of the charges (criminal offenses), I immediately started looking for an experienced defense attorney. I narrowed down my search to three attorneys, ...and following my initial consultation with each, I knew, without a doubt, that Mr. Green was the one I wanted to defend me. He was an absolute professional and gave me all the time I needed to ask questions. He went over several possible scenarios, and while did not make any promises, I knew he would do his very best to get me the most desirable outcome. While I was waiting for my court hearing, I contacted him several times, and I greatly appreciated that he always responded and took the time to go over my case. During my court hearing, I was amazed as how much respect his peers, police officers, prosecutor, and the judge had for Mr. Green. Given his great reputation and extensive experience in traffic law in Virginia, he was able to reduce both criminal charges to simple traffic violations. I was extremely happy with the outcome and I knew I might not have received the same outcome had I hired someone else. His fee was very reasonable and was definitely worth the investment. I grabbed bunch of his business cards to pass to those in need of a great defense attorney. God bless you, Mr. Green. I am forever grateful to you and your firm.

I will keep his card as long as I live in Northern VA!

Garrett is the type of lawyer that I am sure everyone would like to hire. I assume that many of us (first offenders) have this bad impression of lawyers and how they take our money and do nothing. That was not my case, I was very lucky to land in Garretts office after getting a millions offers from a... million different DUI lawyers. Since day one Garrett was very informative, straight forward with me, prepared me for the worst but always gave me hope. I blew .19 and then later had a BAC of.16. In VA having a BAC level of .15 or above is a mandatory 5 day in jail. Garrett took his time, my first court date was 2/24. He suggested be ask for a new court date and have the person who took my blood test present. So we did, next date was 3/19. I got there at 9am met with Garrett and went over the plan. Long story short, Garrett negotiated until 2:30pm, stayed with me all the time keeping me updated and making sure I was ok, of course I was there listening to EVERYONE getting sentenced to jail time and I was a little nervous. Finally after him negotiating, at 2:30 my case was resolved, he managed to get my BAC thrown out and no jail time. I got a restricted license for 12 months (which he helped me apply for and made sure I was all set) and unsupervised probation for 12 months. I was the only one out of all the offenders that day who did not get jail time! I think the final result of this situation was fantastic and I witnessed how much time and effort Garrett put in helping me out. I think that it is also very comforting to see how well known Garrett and Luke(b/partner) are in the Fairfax court building. I mean even the cashier new his name! Thank you Garrett! I will keep your card in my wallet at all times!

Reckless Ticket reduced to Failure of Obeying Highway Sign.

I am an immigrant in US. I was going for my classes in Fairfax County Virginia and went 21 mph over speed limit (76/55). An officer pulled me over and I, being the idiot I am, talked rudely to the officer (completely unintentional- because of nervousness). I got a reckless driving ticket (I think ma...inly because of my attitude). This was my first ticket ever and I was afraid beyond limits. 2-3 days later, I received a very professional letter containing a handbook on reckless driving from Nichols and Green firm. The book was comprehensive and contained all the information I needed. I decided to call them. The representative at the firm talked very politely and comforted me. I talked to Mr. Garrett Green. He was awesome about everything we talked about. I sent the firm numerous emails and they replied to each, in detail. Coming to the point, my first court date did not go well, because the prosecutor knew about my attitude to the officer. Mr. Green was able to take another date and on 2nd date, Mr. Green won the case for me. He was able to get my Reckless Driving Ticket, a criminal offence which stays on driving record for 11 years and a criminal record for life (6 point offence with a $2500 fine and up to 6 months in jail) to just Failure to Obey Highway Sign, a traffic infraction (3 point offence and $200 fine that stays on your driving record for only 3 years). I am very thankful to Mr. Green and I happily and confidently recommend him to anybody who needs assistance. May GOD bless him with happiness, health and victories in any case he takes up.

Good Lawyer

I spoke with 5 lawyers when I got a reckless driving citation on RT 66 (77/55). All basically told me the same thing to expect at court. However the sheer number of cases Nichols and Green handled in a year made feel better about hiring them for my case. I only spoke with Mr. Green once during the co...nsultation but his staff was good about keeping me informed when I called. I liked his pragmatic approach. He told me not to get a speedometer calibration based on the reliability of my car and how it might hurt a case in court if the disparity went the wrong way. He also recommended I wait to do driver improvement until after my case since my record was relatively good. So while the fees were not the cheapest of the lawyers I consulted they saved me superfluous charges. I am happy with the outcome of the case and I am sure that Mr. Green's knowledge and experience in the Fairfax courts made all the difference between a reckless driving charge which would have been a disaster and what I ended up with a speeding ticket.

Excellent Lawyer!

Garrett was great! I was recently charged with a public intoxication, and I'm glad I hired Garrett as my attorney. During my free consultation, he was extremely personable and knowledgable. He was in no rush to get me out the door, he did an outstanding job of explaining my options, and he made me fe...el very comfortable . Then, on the day of my court date, the charges were dropped, which meant I could avoid court costs, fines, or a criminal conviction. From start to finish, Garrett was everything I was looking for in a lawyer. I highly endorse him and would absolutely recommend his services for anyone in search of a good attorney.
