Look no further than Doug

Receiving a reckless driving ticket, I was in search for a lawyer. With concerns of this being considered a felony it was important to find the right person to handle this case. During the consultation Doug was transparent sharing the severity of the charge and his recommended actions. I was impresse...d because he called the same evening as the request to be contacted was made. Throughout the entire process he kept his word, following up as promised even with his busy schedule. The plan of action he outlined we followed to a tee. He was able to arrange a plea to a speeding of 20 over the speed limit, fine plus court costs. This was way better than the 12 months of jail time and a criminal record.

My Experience with Doug

Recently I found myself in a situation where a lawyer would be very convenient. I was charged with reckless driving in Virginia and was not going to be able to stand in for the court date due to being sent out of the area for training. After browsing a few websites I came across one and made a few ca...lls leading me to Doug. Him and I had a pleasant conversation discussing what had happened. Due to being military he told me what options I had and what documents I should send him, and after discussing a few more things I stated that I was interested in hiring him. He was very understanding and respectful to me despite my age and inexperience with matters such as these and helped me understand more of the legality behind it all. After hiring him he consistently stayed in touch with me and provided me useful updates pertaining to my case. In the end he was even able to get my case dismissed. Overall I would say that my experience with him was great. He was respectful, understanding, informative, and nothing less than a great lawyer to hire.

Highly recommend!

He help me get my reckless driving in VA Beach reduced when everyone else with this particular judge was getting jail time and non-reduced sentences. Very easy to talk to and was always available for me when I had questions.

99/70 reduced to a regular traffic ticket in Mecklenburg County

I was on my way from NC to MD when I got pulled over was cited for reckless driving at 99mph in a 70mph zone in Mecklenburg county. I was really bothered about this as I had an idea of the implication of this offense in Virginia. I immediately started contacting attorneys to prepare for the case. I ...spoke to a number of attorneys who didn't sound as convincing but as soon I was reached out to Mr McGee's office, I was told he will call me in person in a few days and he did, we spoke for about 45 minutes the first day and he ran me through the entire process and laid out the best case scenario and what I needed to do to get that. I went to work on all that he said right away and over the next few months before the court appearance. Throughout the process, Mr McGee was helpful in reassuring me when I needed any form of reassuring and clarification about anything. Apart from texting him country less times, I kept reading various reviews about him on this website to reassure and encourage myself with the success stories of so many others. (and now I hop my story encourages others also). On the court day, he got to the court before me, which really meant a lot to me and as soon as we met, he again reassured me about the probable outcome and once we were called, he handled the session so professionally that in less than 7minutes, the entire case was done and the Judge commended the actions I took in response to Mr McGee's suggestion and reduced the reckless driving charge to a mere speeding ticket without ANY implications on my driving record. I was only asked to do one more thing and pay a really low fine and court costs to get the case closed. If you have any traffic court case in the state of Virginia, look no further than to Mr McGee and you will be glad you did. He will definitely be worth your while.

Reckless driving in Brunswick county - 96/70

I got a reckless driving ticket in Brunswick county. I have approached around 10 lawyers in the area but no body was willing to take up my case because 96/70 is goner in that county. But when I consulted with McGee, he clearly mentioned all the things I have to do and also set my expectations pragmat...ic. I instantly felt better after his call. I did all the things he mentioned, went to the court and my reckless driving charge was knocked down to a moving violation which is the least one could get in Virginia
