Reckless Driving/ Expert Representation

Mr. Nichols was great, just what I wanted in proper representation on my reckless driving case. He talked to me prior to the case and explained what I need to do to be well prepared. Mr. Nichols negotiated with prosecutors and got the results we were looking for. I would highly recommend Mr. Nichols ...to everyone.

VA Reckless Ticket

When I received my ticket I was distraught and didn't really want to think about it due to the amount of mail that comes in when your name hits the public record. But one night I received a book that changed my view on the situation. It was a book written by Mr. Nichols about reckless driving in VA.... Even though I had a previous felony after reading the book I some optimism regarding my situation. A day later I contacted Mr. Nichols and retained his services. I entered the court room expecting jail time as a worst case scenario but only left with a large speeding ticket. You must understand that the difference between a good attorney and a great one is how they can educate you as to your situation but make deals with the district attorneys. Also please know that when it comes the precious freedom we enjoy do not just pick the attorney for the price but the comfort they give you when you think all odds are against you and Mr. Nichols has done this in spades. Thank you Luke and to your backroom dealings.

Reckless Driving reduced to Speeding

Luke Nichols represented me in court this morning regarding a reckless driving citation (92 in a 70 mph zone). I was full sure I would be convicted and receive a driving license suspension and potential jail time as I had a similar charge out of state in 2013. Luke was able to iron out a resolution a...nd negotiated a reduced charge of speeding 80 mph in a 70 mph zone. Brilliant result - and really unexpected. I couldn't have asked for a better result.

Excellent choice

I never needed to hire an attorney and was facing a DUI charge. Mr. Nichols was very professional, personable and thoroughly explained what I was facing and what to do. I then really needed help when I received yet another DUI charge. Mr. Nichols never acted judgemental. He was the exact opposite,... very empathic and very realistic in what I am facing. I would highly recommend his counsel. He is also very quick to respond to questions.

Reckless Driving

Reckless driving was dropped to a minor speeding ticket. Mr. Nichols represented me as an attorney, and he was straight forward and let me know what I needed to do to prepare to have the best fighting chance. Not going to sugarcoat it. It was a lot of work, but I completed everything (plus more to ...show that I was taking this violation seriously). In the end, even though the judge and prosecutor who showed up to handle my case were known to be tough, they've agreed to reduce my charge to a minor speeding ticket. One thing to keep in mind for anyone who's in a similar situation (This is something I didn't know): All of the negotiation with the prosecutor is done on the day of your court date because the name of the prosecutor is not known until the day before. Even though you may feel anxious and nervous, there is nothing that can be done until the day of. Just do what your attorney asks you to do, so he can go and negotiate on your behalf as best as he can. Mr. Nichols knew the people at the court and is certainly knowledgeable about traffic cases. Best of luck.
