Mattox Law is best with what they do

I got fined for failure to yield to an emergency vehicle that was cops on the highway. This is considered reckless driving in Virginia, and I live in NC. Cops could have towed my car and put me in jail but I was cooperative and apologized to them, so they just gave me a citation. Mattox Law reduce...d the reckless driving, failure to yield to an emergency vehicle, a misdemeanor to failure to obey a highway sign while sleeping, an infraction and a non-moving violation. No points in my driving record and insurance. I just paid a fine of $100 plus a court fee. Communication with Mattox Law was very professional. They answered all my questions and concerns. Also, I didn't need to travel to Virginia. Thank you for representing me, Mattox Law

The very knowledgeable attorney

Trey is great. I am very satisfied with the work he's done for me. Trey and his team are very polite, responsive, and they gave me clear instructions on what needed to be done. They made everything very easy and super simple for me. The outcome of my case was exactly what I was hoping for. I definite...ly recommend Mattox Law.

He Walked the Walk!

Thank you so much! I reached out to Attorney Mattox just days before my daughter’s court case, and he took the time to walk me through what to expect. Everything went exactly as he said it would. I truly appreciate his professionalism and the way he handled the matter. Thank you again!

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.
