If you have another criminal charge such as eluding the police, hit and run, DWI maiming, or a VASAP violation, I can help as well. I defend clients against many misdemeanors and felonies in the General District Courts and Circuit Courts.

I handle a variety of traffic tickets as well, with most of them being reckless driving for speed or accidents. Don't let a reckless driving charge ruin your record and take away your driver's license. Call today.

Court case dismissed

I cannot thank you enough! Had a reckless ticket, but with Ryan’s counseling and support my case was dismissed. Going in front of the judge was nerve wrecking, but had a chat with Ryan prior the hearing he made me feel more at ease. Thanks again!!

Traffic: Represented in Fairfax

Ryan Fitgerald represented my case out of Fairfax and the result far surpassed my expectation. The process from beginning to end was great, with Dawn his paralegal always able to answer any questions I had to keeping me informed on the next steps. Slight sarcasm, I hope to never have to use Mr. Fitzg...erald again, but if the need ever arises he's my first call.

Reckless Speeding Reduced to Improper Driving.

When looking for lawyers, I came upon Ryan Fitzgerald. We had a consultation in which he assured me everything would be okay, we set up a specific plan to follow before court and everything else would be handled by him. I had a 90 mph in a 55 reckless driving charge (In Fairfax county too!) and Ryan ...managed to get it reduced to just an improper driving charge with only 3 points taken off DMV. I put my trust in ryan, did my part and he truly delivered on his part too! I would definitely recommend ryan to anyone who gets a traffic ticket of any severity. He was also great when it came to communication and questions.

Reckless Driving

I was driving in Reston on the toll road early May of 2023. I had gotten pulled over going 96/55. After doing my research and finding out that reckless driving is a misdemeanor in VA which remains on your record forever and that speeds that high can possibly result in jail time, I was extremely nervo...us. I gave Ryan’s firm a call, and his firm was polite and great with scheduling a time to talk about my case with him. He was very respectful and patient with all of my questions and gave me an honest view on what was possible with my case and what he could do. After hiring him, he gave me some task to complete before my court date in order to receive the best outcome. Sure enough, he was able to reduce my RECKLESS DRIVING (96/55) to an IMPROPER DRIVING! I could tell he knew exactly what he was doing, he was super cool and calm about everything on the day of court. Ryan representing me in court was a true life saver and I’m forever grateful for him! If you need a lawyer, choose Ryan Fitzgerald!

Reckless Driving Accident

I misjudged which lane a semi truck was in, and pulled out in front of him. I got a reckless driving with failure to stop, and Ryan got it reduced to a local ordinance traffic violation called 'failure to pay full time and attention. This is a huge relief, I want a clean record and didn’t want insura...nce to increase. I did a ton of research for a lawyer, and this paid off. Their prices are not bad at all, and 100% worth it. Super professional, and great at talking me through the process. He also talked to the officer before hand, and we actually left the court room with the case closed before 10:00 am, which was when the hearing was supposed to start! Thank you!
