I hired her to work my case thru out the whole case she was trying to have me take a plea deal that would have me incarcerated instead of fighting & asking for a fine/probation then told me “I need to do my time then get out of Virginia for ever” she is a very rude & arrogant lady & if she doesn’t ha...ve her way she will under mine you in front of the Judge & move to try to get you arrested.

My husband is a truck driver and he got a ticket in Virginia and we live in North Carolina. The ticket was for 11 over the posted speed which is careless.and reckless in Virginia. That charge would have ended his driving career. We called our attorney at home and she gave us Vanessa's number. I calle...d and Vanessa was quick to tell us what she could do for us and what it would cost us. We hired her 2 months before the actual court date and she made sure she kept in contact with us during that time. She was always positive and upbeat every time we spoke. She told me to expect her to call after court on the day our case went before the judge to let us know what had been done. She held true to what she said she would do and that afternoon she called. Vanessa had done for us exactly what she said she would do. Our court fines and cost were exactly what she said she thought they would be and her fees were not high at all. I hope we don't ever have a need for an attorney in VA again but if we do we will definitely be calling Vanessa again.

My experience with Counselor Hicks was excellent from the first phone call to discuss the matter (reckless driving charge on I-95 Greensville Sheriff, potential 4 points and criminal misdemeanor). It was so obvious to me (and I work with business attorneys everyday for 30 years in my job) that Ms. H...icks was going to be that terrific combination of good listener, experienced, professional and gracious! Ms. Hicks was responsive whenever I called or emailed her. I mean immediately, even right after a long day in court. In that first call, she let me know exactly what I needed to provide her with (i.e. state driving record, and my version of what transpired). Once she had what she needed from me, she acknowledged it, and told me she would contact me before the court date (which was about 45 days from alleged infraction date). And right on time, a couple days before she let me know she was all set, and would provide the outcome after the hearing. Ms. Hicks informed me right away that same day of the hearing that the charge was reduced to a non-moving violation, no points. Just a total fine of $226. Ms. Hicks after initially hearing what my case was about in that first phone call, offered me a flat fixed cost for her time, efforts and guidance. It was very reasonable given she was having to appear in court on my behalf as I live about 3-4 hours away in another state. I had a really clean driving history and weather conditions were good, and I was alleged to be at 83 mph. In summary, I highly recommend Ms. Hicks, my experience was that she is honest, highly effective, and very reasonable. Thank you Ms. Hicks.

From start to finish regarding my case Ms. Hicks immediately made me feel comfortable regarding her expertise and her ability to assist me. She was very honest and never made any false promises; and provide me with every possible outcome. Ms. Hicks was also responsive in her communication with me; sh...e always responded to my telephone calls and emails in a timely manner. She was confident in her ability to obtain the best outcome in my case as a result of knowledge, extensive experience. I am truly grateful for Ms. Hick's professionalism and knowledge of the specific law as it related to my case. The firm should also be commended for their professional customer service immediate response regarding my inquiry. Finally, the retainer for services were a reasonable rate.

Attorney Vanessa Hicks was always professional and consistent with the case. She was very considerate and helpful with me when I would become extremely concerned about the charges being brought against me. At all times through conversation on the phone she was able to leave me with a feeling that thi...ngs would be fine and that I had the right person representing me through thisn ordeal. I personally never met Vanessa due to distance reasons, but I do thank GOD for putting her in my path...thank you!
