Spectacular Lawyer- Mr. Doug McGee

I live in Maryland and just returned from my court day in Sussex Virginia. I am very glad Mr. Doug McGee was by my side. I was charged with reckless driving on my way to Outer Banks with my family a few weeks ago. I simply did not see the sudden change in the speed limit and got caught in a speed t...rap (nice start to vacation). The officer cited me as reckless and stated I would have to come to court. I had absolutely no idea what any of this meant. I had never even had a speeding ticket. After researching it (yes, while on vacation), I realized I was being criminally charged, which was unbelievable to me. Furthermore, I am a professional who cannot have any such record on my background, as it is checked regularly. I also knew none in Virginia. I reached out to several lawyers (for the first time ever to represent me). Mr. McGee was the only one that returned my call promptly and spent nearly 40 minutes educating me and explaining that I had to take it serious but that we would be okay, all without charging me. He was polite, professional and very patient with my ignorance on this whole matter. He advised me meticulously on court preparation and what I needed before we appeared in from of the judge. After I spoke to him I felt much better and hired him. He was available to me at all times as needed. I completed all his instructions. Today, in court, he was phenomenal. He pleaded our case and my background to the judge and was able to persuade him to drop the reckless without need for additional community service. Let me add, this judge was very good and experienced, but not easily persuaded as I saw with other defendants. I also got to observe other lawyers representing other defendants and I must say, I knew I had selected the right lawyer. Mr. McGee is an experienced go to lawyer who happens to also be a good man, as I got to know him today. Do yourself a favor and take the charges serious and hire this serious lawyer. I hope I never go through this again, but he is my lawyer in the future, should the need arise. Overall, his fee was very reasonable for the spectacular representation. Thank you Mr. McGee.

I hired Doug after consulting several attorneys after being given a reckless driving summons in Mecklenburg County, VA for doing 85 in a 70mph zone. Doug took a half hour to speak with me over the phone that day, gave me a realistic outlook on my case, and most importantly gave me peace of mind over ...the following months while waiting for my court date. He is extremely down to earth, realistic, and I genuinely enjoyed talking with him. Not once did he ever try to scare me with the worst possible outcome as is common practice with some VA lawyers that make a living off these cases exclusively. Most importantly, he delivered on his word and got my case reduced to a non-criminal equipment malfunction. Would recommend him 110%.

He is a blessing!!

It is so hard to find a good lawyer who cares. He helped me with a very complicated situation in a very difficult time for me. He is so professional, he is so compassionate, nice, and funny. He takes the time to explain everything, you can contact him over the weekends, I have not enough words to ex...plain how thankful I am for all his help and his kind words. He is a blessing and I pray that God bless him and the ones he loved always!!

Doug McGee is THE MAN

I was driving home from Florida to N/Y. Stopped for doing 84 in a 70 zone. In Virginia that's considered RD. I contacted my N.Y. Lawyer who recommended Doug's law firm to handle my case. Doug called me and we reviewed my options. He was so spot on and professional. I received calls from him on Sunday...s, unheard of in my opinion. I sent him with all the documents he required for a court appearance. Rather than winding up in an Orange Jump Suit, I received a minimum fine, no points and could not have been happier. Thanks to Doug McGee
