Wonderful lawyer!

I called Mr. Rakness because my underage son rec'd a ticket and he was so helpful in his consultation. He answered all of my questions and put my mind at ease. He and his assistant asked questions and really seem to care. He could have just taken my money but felt that my situation can be handled ...without a lawyer. The honesty was very refreshing.

Simply the best!

I highly recommend Ryan Rakness. I got pulled over in Virginia and hit with a reckless driving charge. As someone with a perfect driving record who has never been to court, this was pretty nerve-wracking. I was referred to Ryan and I'm so glad I was. He was professional and made me feel comfortable.... He explained everything, kept me up to date on what was happening with my case and convinced the judge to bring it down to just a speeding ticket. I would recommend Ryan to anyone who is in a similar situation to mine, he really is the man for the job!

Excellent result. Ryan is very skilled and will fight for you!

I hired Ryan to help expunge my possession of marijuana charge. I was upset that this charge was on my record given the circumstances of my case. Ryan quickly connected with me and showed expert judgement while offering me a much-needed peace of mind. He clearly explained the specifics of my situatio...n and was confident in his ability to achieve an excellent result, which was very reassuring. Ryan was able to get my charge expunged in a matter of weeks! He was very diligent and truly supported me throughout the process. I highly recommend Mr. Rakness for any problems you are facing. He will thoughtfully analyze your situation and fight for your rights!

Professional and Extremely Helpful and Knowledgeable

Ryan was recommended to me by another attorney for my reckless driving citation for excess speed and another traffic ticket. Ryan recommended that I do some community service and take a VA DMV approved driver improvement course prior to my court date. Bottom-line results: reduced to defective equipme...nt (no longer a misdemeanor) and the other one too was dismissed. Ryan took care of everything in court. If you are looking for a professional, helpful and extremely knowledgeable lawyer on such cases then look no further.

Awesome lawyer

Ryan is amazing!!! I really needed a lawyer fast to handle a family situation and he immediately took on my case. He was very attentive, responsive, knowledgeable, and very compassionate about his client. He listened to the case and offered suggestions on what we needed to do. From start to finish, h...e handled the case with care. He was very attentive to all of the details. During the proceedings, he told us what to expect going in to it and possible outcomes. He was very understanding abs never made us feel like or questions were unimportant. He to care of my family when we needed him and I would highly recommend him for all your needs.
