West Virginia traveler

I was driving to Deltaville, Va for my sisters funeral when I made some serious errors in exiting onto the wrong roads. I got lost and had a wreck. Mr. Earley and his very capable team handled my traffic charges and arrived at a positive conclusion on my behalf. I would highly recommend the Early ...Law Firm.

speeding ticket

I was arrested for speeding (89 mph in a 70 mph zone) and I retained Mr. Earley to represent me. He advised me to 1. do community service (i did 25 hrs.), 2. write a brief biography. He represented me in the Hanover County District Court, and the charges were significantly reduced. I was very pleasan...tly surprised. The reason that the charges were reduced, in my opinion, is that Mr. Earley has an outstanding reputation as a honorable man who only represents individuals who are valuable citizens and are not a danger to the community. He did a great job and i really appreciate the efforts that he made on my behalf.

Professional and Prompt!

The overall process, from hiring Mr. Earley to representation in court, was very smooth. It was my first time receiving such a severe charge for a traffic violation and Mr. Earley reassured me he would help me get the best outcome. Mr. Earley and his team were quick to get documentation/scheduling in... place and to answer my questions and concerns before the court date. In the end, he was able to help me get my charge reduced from a misdemeanor to an infraction. If you ever need assistance on a traffic charge, I highly recommend Mr. Earley and his team.

Reckless driving case

Mark Jr. represented me in a reckless driving case. I was “accused” of driving 92 MPH in a 60 MPH zone. My case resulted in a small fine plus court costs and a simple speeding violation of 1-9 MPH over speed limit. Couldn’t ask for better results.

From one lawyer to another, great work.

Mark Earley Jr. is a diligent, responsive, competent and polite attorney. I hired him in response to a reckless driving charge in the state of Virginia (which is a misdemeanor in that state), for a family member. As an attorney myself, I can vouch that Mark paid my matter the right level of attention..., consulted me and my family member accordingly, and advised of various actions we were able to take to increase the odds of a favorable result. True to that, Mark was able to successfully plead to the Court my family member's case, obtaining the best possible result in the circumstances - a non-moving violation plea. 10/10

  • 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.
