Reckless speeding charge

Helped me with a reckless by speed charge. 102 in a 70. He laid out his recommendations for me as to how to prepare for my hearing and with his help I avoided doing time. With Mr. McGee's help and a good amount of effort on my end I was sentenced in the best case scenario for someone going my speed. ...If not for Mr. McGee I would not be free to write this review. Highly recommend his help if you need it.

The best lawyer I ever had.

Not only did Douglas go above and beyond with my case, given the fact it was a 90/70 reckless driving charge on the interstate, he was able to fight my reckless driving charge down to a non-moving violation. You work with him, and he'll work with you. He guided me through the legal process with e...ase and was there to answer any question I had no matter how simple it was! He is very patient, understanding, and absolutely amazing at his job. Thank you so much, Douglas!

An Absolute Hero: Reckless Reduced to Non-Moving Infraction

If you are facing a reckless driving charge (or similar) in VA, LOOK NO FURTHER THAN DOUGLAS. He helped me through a very high-stress time. I received a reckless charge in Smyth County, VA (having had *two* previous traffic tickets in VA), and yet Doug far exceeded my expectations, managing to get th...e reckless charge reduced to a mere non-moving infraction. Doug KNOWS the ins and outs of traffic courts across VA; he provides a realistic assessment of your situation and expected outcomes; and tailors his advice based on the courtroom/officer involved with your case. Follow his recommendations, he will take care of the rest, TRUST. Doug's approach is personalized; his fee is very reasonable; and he will make you feel at ease. Seriously, hire Doug asap

Speeding

Doug was fantastic. He told me in advanced what to do prior to the case, and all of his advice led me to getting my Reckless driving ticket dismissed.

"I endorse Mr. McGee. He handled a civil traffic case for me with excellent results, getting case dismissed. He was always available and kept in communication during pendency of case. 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."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
