Not Guilty - Reckless Driving - 102/70 Jury Trial

My daughter was charged with doing 102 in a 70 MPH area in Warrenton county Virginia. We retained one lawyer and pled guilty in District court and she received a sentence of 12 days in jail with fines and suspension. We felt that the penalty was too much and retained Luke for an appeal to the Facquie...r Circuit court. First, his fee was very reasonable for this case and after discussion we agreed that a jury trial was the best approach. On court day Luke was early and we were able to discuss strategy. He was well prepared and had gone over a number of details with my daughter. During the trial he was impressive in his knowledge of the police radar equipment and the testing/calibration methods and asked a number of questions that the police officer was unable to answer. He was also able to find and exploit a flaw in the police officer's testimony. End result, my daughter was found not guilty and we were extremely pleased with both Luke's performance and the outcome, which, to say the least, was a remarkable court achievement. I would highly recommend Luke if you have a traffic case in Virginia and please don't be too quick to plea, fight for your desired outcome, with Luke representing you..

Reckless Driving 80/55

I was faced with a 80 in a 55 and Mr. Nichols was able to have the charge reduced to an Improper Control / Driving. He also had the fine and court costs reduced as well. Both Mr. Nichols and his office were very polite, prompt, and easy to work with. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the ...future.

I was charged with reckless driving going 69 in a 45 mph zone, Mr. Nichols was able to get my charge dismissed with no points after completion of a drivers course. I also hold a cdl license, if convicted it may have led to the loss of my license and job. I was very pleased with the outcome, great job...!
