Amazing Attorney

I was pulled over in Virginia on my way to Florida to visit family. I was going 83/70. Mr. McGee was so amazing through the whole process. I myself have worked in criminal defense for amazing attorneys and Mr. McGee was just as amazing as my team. I couldn't have found a better attorney for my case. ...If you want someone who will give it to you straight, make no promises and do his absolute best...then look no further. You will not be disappointed.

Reckless driving ticket

I just recently was traveling to virgina for a vacation and got a speeding ticket doing 88mph in a 70mph. When I got home and called the police department in virgina to see how I could pay my ticket the officer told me I couldn't pay the ticket I had to show up in court and I said ok. The officer adv...ised me to get a lawyer because I was getting charged for reckless driving which was a class 1 misdemeanor in virgina and i was possiblygoing to do jail time. I was nervous when he told me that so I got online and typed in good lawyers for reckless driving. Doug was the first contact that pulled up and i contacted him immediately. When we talked Doug explained to me everything and the rules in virgina and told me what I needed to have ( go to driving school, dmv record, accident report and dynometer testing) for my court date if I decide to hire him.. i was so please by just talking to him I went ahead and hired him, I got everything he asked for except for the dynometer testing. He assured me that everything was ok and he should be able to take care of it with what I gave him. I ended up with a non moving violation/ defective equipment and only had to pay a fine and court cost he did a awesome job and he is a great attorney. Thank you doug and I recommend him 100%

Best choice!

By the time it was over we knew we were fortunate to have found Mr. McGee. He represented our son in a speeding incident that could have had life changing repercussions. Lessons were learned in the process and the results were superlative. HIs experience allowed us to move through the process during ...challenging COVID times and he kept us informed at each step of the way. Thank you again to Douglas McGee.

Best Lawyer for Reckless driving

Doug is the best out there. I was charged with RD for going 97 in a 70 and he was able to get the charge down to improper driving. Throughout the entire process, he was so helpful and gave me all the tips needed to help with the result of my case. A truly great lawyer and I am so thankful that he was... my lawyer.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
