Traffic Court

I hired I hired Mirham at S&R after consulting with over a dozen firms in the area. She and the firm were the only ones that did not insult other firms and followed up immediately. After my first telephone conversation with her I was sure I wanted her representing me in court. Mirham represented... me in Stafford County District Court for a misdemeanor Reckless Driving Charge. Going into court I was confident she would be able to get the charges reduced, even though I had a less than perfect driving record. She was able to get the charges reduced to a very small fine.

Mirham Yacoub

Mirham was able to work magic fort daughter not once but twice . She was very professional and approachable at the same time . I highly recommend her for traffic issues.

Posted by anonymous | September 30, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Reckless Driving ticket

I used Mirham for a reckless driving ticket and she helped me get it reduced to a violation without any points to my record. She explained to me priorities and strategies before I even hired her and took her time with me on the phone. The great service carried over to court and after as well. I would... recommend her to anyone.
