Hire Doug!

Driving through Smyth County I was charged with a Class 1 Misdemeanor charge of Reckless Driving (88 MPH in a 70 MPH Zone) in Smyth County. Doug had it reduced to Defective Equipment, thereby avoiding a misdemeanor conviction, potential jail, license suspension by the court. Doug is the man, easy to... work with and if you follow what he asks you to do you most likely will have the same outcome. Highly recommend!

Just hire Doug, other lawyers use scare tactics

I received a reckless driving ticket in Virginia for speeding (>15 mph) on my way to vacation. Doug talked with me every step of the way and helped reassure me it would be okay (penalties include up to 12 months in prison!!!). I followed all of his instructions to the best of my ability and it ended ...up as a no point fine. He was awesome and I would I highly recommend him for the most aggressive speeding laws in the country (Virginia). Also I was out of state and didn’t not have to attend court in person.

Doug Turned My Reckless Driving Charge Into a Non-Moving Violation - Highly Recommend!

From the moment I reached out to Doug, I knew I was in good hands. Unlike other lawyers who were hesitant to even speak with me before hiring them, Doug took the time to listen to my situation right away. His responsiveness, combined with his extensive experience, made it an easy decision to hire him..., and it turned out to be the best decision I could’ve made. I was facing a reckless driving charge due to speed, and from the very start, Doug provided clear, practical advice about what I could do to improve my situation. What stood out most was his honesty. He didn’t sugarcoat things or tell me what I wanted to hear. Instead, he gave me straightforward, realistic expectations, but also remained confident that if I followed his guidance, we could get the charge reduced to a simple traffic ticket. What truly impressed me was how Doug didn’t stop there. He mapped out a strategy to potentially get the entire case reduced to a non-moving defective equipment charge, something that would mean zero points on my license instead of the six I’d face with the reckless driving conviction. And the best part? Doug delivered on that plan. Thanks to his expert guidance and careful handling of my case, the charge was ultimately reduced to the non-moving violation, exactly as he’d hoped for. If you’re in a similar situation and worried about the impact a conviction might have on your life, I highly recommend reaching out to Doug. He’s not only an expert in his field but genuinely cares about getting the best possible outcome for his clients. Thanks to Doug, I avoided the worst-case scenario and couldn’t be more grateful.

The Best Choice I Could Have Made in a Stressful Time

When this whole situation first began, I was scared and overwhelmed. The uncertainty of not knowing what would happen weighed heavily, and one of the most stressful parts was figuring out how to choose the right lawyer. We wanted someone with strong recommendations, someone we could trust, but also s...omeone who understood the importance of working within our budget. That balance felt nearly impossible to find at first. In the end, the overall cost came to about $2,000, which included not only Doug’s fee, but also car reports, two required classes, and the extra expenses of gas from volunteering and traveling back and forth to court. For such a difficult and draining experience, knowing that we were able to afford quality representation without being crushed financially was a huge relief. What truly stood out, though, was Doug’s character. From the very beginning, he was calm, kind, and reassuring — exactly what I needed in such a stressful time. He was patient as I asked what felt like 101 questions before signing on the dotted line, and instead of making me feel like a burden, he answered each one with care, honesty, and full transparency. That level of forthrightness was refreshing, and it built trust from the start. Throughout the entire process, Doug’s professionalism was matched by his humanity. He was not only thorough and knowledgeable, but also compassionate and understanding. His calm demeanor gave me peace of mind, and his guidance helped me navigate what could have been an overwhelming experience. Although this situation was unfortunate, meeting and working with Doug was not. I hope I never have to go through something like this again, but if I do, I know how fortunate I would be to have him by my side.
