Got my speeding ticket dismissed!

Great service! Managed a speeding/reckless driving ticket from out of state, helping me to get the charges dismissed as well as sorting out the court date given my location!

Great work on a traffic matter

Hi I needed a local attorney in Spotsylvania and found Jeh Hicks on Avvo. He was very responsive and clear about the costs involved in representing me and didn't over promise and under-deliver on the outcomes. The matter was somewhat complex and when I read the transcript of the court proceedings, ...I knew I had done the right thing in hiring Jeh.

Professional, understanding, and, motivating...

A few different, minor legal situations had conspired, in my life over recent years, that required legal consultation/representation. After, utilizing others' legal representation in, the past for minor traffic violations; I decided to seek out another, local attorney for, a better or different persp...ective. Once, I had discovered Joseph E. Hicks then, consulted him about my situations: I soon realized that, he was the proper and only choice for, my legal representation. He was understanding with, my various citations in, a very professional manner and, well studied in the local code of law being, able to quote sections noted within the citations. After, my request for what, I desired for, the outcome in court, he went to work even, to the extent of, encouraging me and motivating me; to overcome any past experiences that, played into either of, my tickets or citations which, required the utilization of his services. Mr. Hicks was totally, trustworthy and very knowledgeable in context to, his ability to work with the court's various agents and procedures. Overall, each time I had tapped his services; the final decisions were as expected and, better in, many ways than, I personally had expected. I will use his firm and Mr. Hicks, himself for, any other legal representation I may, ever need because, my dealings with, him were absolutely, comfortable and, truly motivational.
