Claude Stuart Whitehead III

I cannot express in words how grateful we are to Claude Whitehead for his expertise and guidance through a very scary situation. We made the mistake of hiring a cookie cutter attorney for my son's reckless driving ticket. The original lawyer never questioned anyone or anything in regard to the ticket.... His plan was for my son to complete 50 hours of community service, do the driving course and get character letters to present to the court. The first attorney told us to be there at 9:15 for court at 9:30 and he walked in at 9:50 without even introducing himself. He never questioned the police officer or how he obtained his speed even though I told him that there was two different speeds listed on the ticket. After my son's conviction he told us that we got what he was hoping for, my son kept his license and no jail time. However, he did get a misdemeanor (which is permanent) on his record which was the main thing we were trying to avoid. He clearly had no plan to try to challenge the ticket. We asked to appeal and he basically laughed and said we'd likely see a harsher punishment if we did. The attorney was unprepared to present any information we had sent him to the judge, was late and didn't even know who my son was. We decided the appeal was the way to go and after talking to several lawyers our search ended when I spoke to Mr. Whitehead. He was understanding and compassionate and ready to hit the ground running. He made no promises but boy did he deliver! He laid out a very detailed plan and stuck to it. He was very easy to communicate with and always responded quickly. He explained the how and the why and we always knew where we were with everything at all times. Not only did the charge get reduced to speeding, but the misdemeanor was gone and the fines significantly lowered. If you are looking for a speeding or traffic ticket save yourself a lot of time and worry, call Mr. Whitehead first. We wish we had.

Claude helped me on a reckless drivers charge. He made things real easy and took the stress off. A year later I had another personal matter come up involving a car accident and I needed a lawyer fast I remembered him and called him and he got back to me right away and walked me through the who...le process. Our ordeal lasted about a year and he helped us through it the whole way. When it finally wrapped up, the outcome was the best we could have hoped for for such a bleak situation Highly recommend. Very personable and professional. If you're in need of an exceptional lawyer fast, call him.

Claude Whitehead is an excellent attorney! I was ticketed for going 85 in a 70 mph zone and was charged with Reckless driving. In VA this is a misdemeanor offense and can have significant consequences. Claude took the time to explain the charge and his intended strategy to deal with it. He was able ...to get the my charge reduced and made a stressful situation easier to deal with. Mr Whitehead was extremely professional and kept me informed throughout the process. I would readily recommend him to anyone! Thank you Mr. Whitehead

Claude Whitehead has defended me on two different occasions. He defended me once in Piedmont an hour and a half away with reckless driving in a few other charges related with marijuana, possession distribution and Manufacturing.. Claude Whitehead representative for $2,500 and I left that court date w...ith only improper equipment and 25 hours community service. You can't beat that I don't care who you hire. Also defended me in Henrico county with a DUI with no jail time and walked out with a restricted liscense

Mr. Whitehead recently appeared for me regarding a reckless driving charge (92/70). As I live and work in Florida and received the charge while driving through Virginia, I could not appear in court myself. After calling his office, he quickly got in touch with me and explained the entire process and ...welcomed any questions. He then appeared on my behalf and got my charge reduced to speeding ticket, 80/70. It was a huge relief and he kept me updated the whole time. There was a bit of a mix up with the court and Mr. Whitehead worked hard to get it resolved, and in the end everything worked out. Highly recommended, he is very professional and extremely patient.
