He is able to handle your case even without you appearing in the court.

I had a great experience with this lawyer, he handled my case professionally and efficiently. Had a case on 1st class misdemeanor (traffic). He proved competent and reliable. I recommend him to anyone who needs a great lawyer.

Help with Speeding Ticket

Joyner Law Firm handled my speeding ticket efficiently and reliably. They were clear about the process and their rates are reasonable.

Fantastic communications and easy to work with.

Jason was able to clearly explain the strategy and plan around my minor speeding case, and he achieved the desired result. His communications were clear and concise and his use of step-by-step outlines worked very well.

What a relief!!

I was heading down I85 not paying attention to my speed. Pulled over and received a ticked for reckless driving. I received many letters from law firms, but the letter from Joyner actually had all my information and stood out from the rest and so I called! Karl was sooo nice and encouraging and reall...y eased my mind. He told me exactly what I need to do, obtaining my driving record etc. He went to court and the result was a small fine and court costs which he had exactly predicted the outcome. I was so relieved-I am a senior and not enamored with jail time! Call this firm if you have a traffic violation!! I would hire them without a second thought!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
