Stress Relieved

Ayesha sent a letter offering her assistance. I Googled her and was pleased with the reviews. I am adding to the positive reviews. She was very pleasant to work with, coming across as down to earth yet professional. She was able to represent the specific circumstances well enough to cause an amazing ...and positive outcome to the case. Ayesha made the whole ordeal tolerable and we were able to sleep peacefully. I hope we never need her services again, but if we do, she is the one we would call without hesitation.

A Professional Attorney/Highly Recommended

Attorney Meekins represented me for an appeal of a speeding ticket in Hopewell, VA. While we did not meet in person, she was extremely prompt in returning phone calls. Her advice was clear and concise and she was able to negotiate a reduced charge that did not include points. I would recommend her to... others and though I would hope not to need her services in the future, I would not hesitate to contact her again.

The college student with the heavy foot!

With extreme short notice I called Atty Meekins to see if she could put her cape on and defend my daughter who happened to be charged with Wreckless Driving in Hopewell, VA. Fortunately, she was able to get the charge reduced to a speeding fine and hopefully my daughter has learned her lesson. Sh...e was upfront, professional, very thorough, and affordable.

Words don't say enough!!!

From the time she returned my call Ayesha was on her game. She had already looked into my case after me just leaving her a VM to inquiring about her services. I was being charged with A Felony Habitual driving charge and speeding at 81 MPH in a 55. Through out the whole ordeal Ayesha kept me informed... with everything involved. She even took time out on a Saturday to call and give me an update about my case. How many attorneys do you know who will call you on their Saturday. The out come of my case was FAR FAR better than I expected... She not only helped me with my case, but she coached me through getting my Habitual status remove all together. Not sure how she did it, but she kept a F off of my report card, and kept me out of prison. In the unfortunate event I ever need a attorney again shes the one! I even added her to my contacts on my phone. She makes you feel like a person and not just another case. Thank you Ayesha, and keep doing what you do.
