I interviewed several law firms and felt most comfortable with Riley & Wells as they had the expertise , confidence and experience that I was looking for to represent me in Hopewell, VA traffic court. From the initial phone call to the immediate contact during each step of my court date and appeal, I... had complete confidence in Mitch's ability to obtain a favorable outcome for me. Mitch was able to convince the Court to reduce my Reckless Driving charge to a lesser offense of Improper Driving including a court fine. With this, I was able to avoid a class 1 misdemeanor charge, avoid jail time, avoid a loss of my driver license and avoid a reduction in DMV points. I highly recommend Mitch Wells to represent you in traffic court. You won't be sorry.

I found Riley & Wells online when looking for a firm that specialized in traffic-related litigation. I was impressed with Mitch's academic credentials at VMI and his law degree from W&M. The firm was very responsive to our online request for help. They were friendly and professional from the first ph...one call and throughout the two months that I worked with them. Mitch quickly grasped the scope of the incident and gave me confidence that things could be resolved favorably. On the day of my court date, he was cool and calm as he talked with the policeman and the D.A. about the case, which was ultimately dismissed by the judge. I could tell that he had developed some great relationships with key people at the courthouse, which certainly worked in my favor. I would highly recommend Mitch and his firm, Riley & Wells. They are a great team to have on your side!

I was driving south on I-85 the day prior to my departure for Iraq on a 6-month deployment. I was pulled over going 80mph in a 70mph area; the state trooper claimed I was doing 80 in a 60mph, which was not accurate. In addition, the trooper wrote the ticket and I was later charged with "reckless driv...ing" although I was clearly not driving 20 mph over the limit. I was certainly driving faster than the speed limit since I was, in fact, in a hurry to drop my car off with a trusted friend. Obviously because I was and am now in Iraq, Mitch went to court for me and managed to get the charge reduced so that I wouldn't have a suspended license or points assessed.

Mr. Wells worked his magic and made my "reckless driving" ticket turn into a "defective equiptment" charge. I don't know how he did it, especially when I already had a few charges on my DMV record. All I can say is if you need an attorney who is fair and willing to help you get the best possible outc...ome..Mr. Wells is the attorney for you!
