"Reckless driving" charge dismisses

Marc did a great job for me. He is very approachable and spent the time on the phone to explain the options and likely outcomes. He gave me solid advice in preparation for my court date. After consulting with the prosecutor and the officer he was able to get my charge dismissed with court fees and ...driving school.

He knows what he is doing

I got into trouble with underage drinking, and I contacted many lawyers but Mr. Anderson knew exactly what to do. His fee was not too high like the other lawyers and it was worth it.

Responsive Attorney

Mr. Anderson was very responsive when we had questions. He explained the process in Virginia and made a recommendation on the facts we presented to him, which was important for us since we were from out-of-state. He was able to have our speeding ticket reduced to a lesser charge so we did not accum...ulate any points on my lenience, which was a great result. We would recommend Mr. Anderson to others.

A Great Lawyer

My name is Julio Murillo and I am a college student. On July 2016 I was pull over for a broken taillight on my way to work and because I didn't had a driver licence, I was given a ticket. Sadly, this was my third offence. I looked for traffic lawyers online and found attorney Mark Anderson. Mr Ander...son reviews spoke well about him so I decided to make an appointment with him. One thing I really liked about attorney Anderson was his honesty on our first appointment. He told me that a third offense for not driver licence in the county of Henrico means certain jail time. I panic and I told him that Jail time means for me as an immigrant not a positive news. I had heard from friends that a third ticket means jail time so he only confirmed what I had heard. Mr Anderson reassured me that even though this was not good news for me, he will do everything in his power to make sure that does not happen or better said in his words "I'll fight for you". Another thing that make me feel that he was a lawyer I want to hire, was how patiently he listen and how genuine concern he was about keeping me out of jail so I can continue my dream to become an engineer here in the country. On the court day Mr Anderson did exactly what he promised, he really fought for me. Cleverly, he convinced the prosecutor to not press jail time charges against me and also convinced the judge to only give me a fine so that could not affected me in the future, when I am allow to apply for a driver licence. Attorney Anderson was so good that I din't even have to do community service, like I was told by other people that would be my best case of scenario. At the end Mr Anderson confirmed his genuine concern about my case by referring me to a immigration attorney that is friend of him and now I am on my way to fix my legal status and as a result allow to have a driver licence in the state of Virginia. I would definitely recommend to any one who have a traffic offence light or severe like my offense because he will fight for you like another attorney may not.
