Jeff Early is a fantastic lawyer.

My 18 year old son received a reckless driving ticket which had the potential to have a hefty penalty of up to a year in jail, a $2,500 ticket, suspended license and could result in a class 1 misdemeanor. I spoke to Jeff on Presidents Day and as a result of our conversation, hired him to represent ...my son. Within 4 days he appeared in court on my sons behalf. He postponed the date until his freshman year of college was over. He indicated that my son should do 30 hours of community service, have his speedometer calibrated, take a 4 hour and an 8 hour driving course and have several character references since this would go a long way with the judge. He knew the judge and trooper who pulled my son over. So my son was able to get this all accomplished in two and a half months. On the day of my sons court appearance, Jeff met with us to go over the questions he was going to ask and to learn more about the specifics around my sons case. While we were waiting for my sons appearance, Jeff let us know that he spoke to the Commenwealth and the two of them agreed to a plee-a speeding ticket going 79 in a 60 and a fine of $250.00 if the judge agreed. Once my son was called to the bench, Jeff let the judge know they had a plee agreement, presented the judge with the speedometer calibration, two driving courses, record of community service and character references. Ths judge graciously agreed to their plee. This was such a more favorable outcome than what we were anticipating. Jeff cared about my sons outcome as much as I did and it showed with how he treated and interacted with my son and with how he interacted with the judge. Had we not had Jeff to represent my son, the outcome would have been so much worse. Jeff's fees were very reasonable, he is knowledgeable about the law and understands what the judges will want from his clients, was easy to work with and responded in a timely mannor to our emails. We are very grateful we hired him.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have referred cases to Jeff for 25 plus years without a concern that our client would not have the best representation possible. He is the "go to" guy for matters on the 29 corridor from Culpeper County to Charlottesville to for years. I have also referred my wife's family members to Jeff as well; I cannot think of a higher degree of trust."

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
