Reckless Driving reduced to Improper Driving

After receiving a "Reckless Driving" ticket in Virginia, I originally did not realize the seriousness of the charge or the potential consequences. However, I was then deluged with Virginia reckless driving information and offers by various attorneys to represent my case. At that point I decided th...at it was necessary to take action to protect myself against the possible extreme outcome of this situation. After carefully reviewing each attorney's offer of services, I selected Joyner Law to represent me based upon his professional and to-the-point letter and advertising brochure. I now know that this was the correct decision. I provided further details of my case and the firm took over from there. All answers to my calls and emails were prompt and professional. The end results of my case were quite satisfactory and the best for which I could have hoped. And all for a very affordable and flat fee. I am sure that no other firm could have handled my case with any more expertise. I highly recommend this firm along with both attorneys, Jason Joyner and Luke Meacham, who personally represented me. Outstanding service!

Gets the job done in technical reckless

I cannot say enough good things about Jason Joyner! My daughter got a speeding ticket in VA going 81 in a 70. She didn't even know that it was technical reckless so she paid the ticket which admits guilt not even knowing that she had a reckless driving misdemeanor. Then we started getting all of the... notices from lawyers about reckless driving and speeding in VA. Most of the notices were scare tactics (and I will say we were scared). But Jason's letter was professional and informative giving me exactly the information I needed to know which was that we could do something even though she paid the ticket. His fee was completely reasonable. He represented my daughter in court and got the charge reduced to speeding BUT he wasn't satisfied with that because the speeding would still result in points on her licence.. So for NO EXTRA CHARGE, he appealed for her and got the charges completely dropped!!! He's professional, knowledgeable, fair, followed up. I highly recommend!!!

Professional, Friendly - Highly recommended

I had a (87/70) speeding ticket on I-95 in Virginia a month ago. I was anxious and worried about this reckless driving ticket. Later I got many advertisement letters from law firms in VA and one of them was the Joyner Law. After spoke to Mr. Joyner, I decided to go with Joyner Law Firm. Since then th...ey took every concern off my shoulder and handled everything for me. They made the whole process extremely simple, only asked me a three-year driving record history. The outcome was great from reckless driving (87/70) to regular speeding (79/70). I was pleased and released. They know what they are doing. I will highly recommend them to everyone who needs the help. Thank you guys. Great job!

Driving Ticket

Mr. Joyner reduced my reckless driving ticket to Improper Driving. Thanks to his help, I only have to pay a fine! I would recommend hiring him and his practice over any other lawyers in the area. He always kept me updated, and was honest from the very beginning about what was to be expected.
