An Excellent Outcome

I am an out of state driver who received a summons in Virginia for reckless driving (75 in a 55). I thought that I would just pay a fine and be done with it. However I quickly realized that this is a very serious offence in Virginia and that I needed legal representation. I did some research and had ...spoken with a couple of attorneys. After my initial consultation with Matt, I hired him on the spot. In addition to being knowledgeable on the issues, Matt was accessible and had a nice, down to earth manner that appealed to me. I also thought that he gave me a fair and honest appraisal of what he could and could not do, without over-selling it. Matt appeared in Court on my behalf and was able to get the charge reduced to "Defective Equipment." While I have to pay a fine, the infraction carries no points so my insurance and driving record will not be impacted. This is as good an outcome as I could have expected under the circumstances. While I certainly hope not to be in need of his services in the future, I would highly recommend Matt to others.

Reckless driving dropped to just driving school

Highly recommended. Got a ticket for 23 over which is a reckless in Chesterfield. Never had one before (Reckless ticket) and after looking up the consequences I knew I needed a lawyer. Was hoping he could at least get it reduced to a lower speeding ticket. However, Matt got it dismissed and I only ha...ve to take driving school. Could not ask for anything better (other than not getting the ticket in the first place). Highly recommended and very happy with the outcome.

Did the JOB!!

Matt was instrumental in ensuring our son received the best outcome to his charges. Within the first 2 weeks of attending school as a Freshman, our son was arrested on 2 separate charges, (possession of marijuana & under aged possession of alcohol). As parents, these charges seemed daunting, but Matt... took care of our son and he received fair and reasonable outcomes to both charges. Not only will his record remain clean, but he also will be working towards learning a good lesson. Having to hire an attorney during our son’s Freshman year in college was not something we had planned, but definitely money well spent. Thanks, Matt!

misdemeanor for speed of 82 mph in a 70 mph zone

Excellent. He informed me about the case every step of the way. Called me when the court hearing was over with the results. The charges were dropped from a misdeameanor to a non-moving violation. Could have not picked a better attorney! Appreciate his professionalism and talent. Thank you Mr Pin...sker.

Deserves every good review written

We were driving thru Virginia from Florida and got a reckless driving ticket. We were clocked doing 99 in a 60. Fully expected to get the heavy of the punishment, instead received the lowest fine Matt has seen for that speed. Matt is very personal and very affordable. I highly recommend his servi...ces.
