Incredible Results!

Douglas McGee is extremely knowledgeable and he gets results! He recommended steps to take prior to my court date and was able to appear in court on my behalf. He even negotiated a reduction from an initial charge of 85 MPH in a 60 MPH zone Reckless Driving/Speeding to just a traffic violation of 6...9 MPH in a 60 MPH zone. I can not be more happy with Douglas’s professionalism and performance.

What a Relief!

Doug represented my fiance for a reckless driving charge. While personable and human, he was also very professional and direct. My fiance and I had never been in a situation like this and it was incredibly reassuring to have Doug by our sides. I would highly recommend utilizing his talents if ever in... need of his service.

Saved me a fortune

I was in a pretty bad situation (reckless ticket) and Doug, in a short amount of time, was able to help me out and get the best outcome. I am so grateful to him and would highly recommend him!

Knowledgeable and patient.

I had a wreckless driving charge out in Shenandoah County it was my first offence that severe and I was very nervous about the outcome. I contacted several lawyers and Doug was the most prompt and professional that I delt with. He was highly competent and knew the Shenandoah area and its laws well. H...e made time for my MANY questions and concerns and while the answers where not always the most comforting they were well informed and honest. In the end he got my wreckless ticket bumped down to a significantly less severe charge. The judge that tried my case literally said I was lucky to have him as my lawyer. Follow his instructions and I'm sure he'll do his best for you.

You gonna get through this With Mr.Mcgee

I was going for a vacation from NY to Florida. Stopped for doing 88 in a 70 zone and I had no idea it is considered as RD in Virginia. I called few law firms and I did not get much info or particular attention. I found Mr. McGee's contact on the web while I was looking an attorney to help me out. His... all reviews were good and I'm so happy today I made my decision to hire him. When I reached him he knew what exactly to do and even before taking the case, He walked me through and explained all quite nicely and taken his own time with out any charge. I sent him with all the documents,He has taken good time to prepare for the case and requested me to obtain few docs like my Driving records,Ordometer calibration, I received a minimum fine, no points and could not have been happier. Thanks to Doug McGee.I recommend him 100% as this charge gonna make your life hard if convicted with bad choices.

I contacted other lawyers before deciding on Mr. McGee and can tell you if you have a case in his area call him first, you will be satisfied."

  • 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.
