Don't go it alone! Call Doug McGee.

If you have been charged with a traffic offense while traveling through the State of Virginia, I implore you not to go it alone. While driving from Tennessee to New Jersey, I lost track of my speed on Rt 81 in Virginia. I was pulled over by a police officer who gave me a speeding ticket, I thought. W...hen I got home and looked up the details, it was a shock to realize I did not get a ticket – I had been issued a criminal summons. I was in a panic. To my great fortune, I was introduced to Douglas McGee, Attorney at Law, who agreed to take on my case and help me formulate a response to the Municipal Court. Doug quickly had the court date rescheduled so I could gather information and take certain steps to prepare for my case that would go before a Judge. Doug provided detailed instructions about how to prepare and I followed them. I sent all the information to Doug who represented me on the day my case was scheduled. He went to Court, spoke with the officer who issued my summons, and presented my case to the Judge. The result was better than I could have hoped for. If you ever find yourself in my situation or any other that requires an expert, professional, and dependable attorney at your side, call Doug McGee.

Truly an amazing lawyer

Doug is an amazing lawyer. I got a fail to yield-emerg mv-red dr in smyth county, which is a failure to yield reckless driving charge that carries a class 1 misdemeanor. He was the only lawyer that actually told me how he was going to help me and fight for me out of all the lawyers that I called. I w...as someone with a clean driving record and had a security clearance, so it would have been very detrimental to me. The steps that Doug gave me were a lot, but all of it was necessary to help me and he helped to lower the charges to an improper driving infraction with no demerit points. I would whole heartly recommend anyone with a similar case to mine to reach out to Doug for help, he is someone who I believe will fight for every person that he represents with the best of his abilities (and his abilities are very good)

Case dismissed

I was pulled over for a number of traffic violations in Virginia and called Attorney Doug McGee. The charges could have caused me to lose my driver's license for a period of time. Doug expained the process to me, advised me on steps I could take to potentially obtain a more favorable result, and ulti...mately he was able to get the violations entirely dismissed. Doug is personable, professional, and (most importantly) gets results. I could not possibly recommend him more highly.

A meticulous professional.

Everything you'd want from a lawyer, you get with Doug. Someone who understands the system, who loves what they do, knows when to fight with the sword or the pencil. I partnered with Doug because I was issued a "Following too closely" citation after in accident I was involved with, Doug immediately f...rom the first phone call calmed my nerves and spoke with confidence. He gave me many different options on how I wanted to proceed and once I communicated my goals, he quickly aligned with that vision and gave me several different strategies on how he was going to fight on my behalf towards my goals. I could write an essay on how Doug portrayed everything I needed as my lawyer, but to put it simply, he was able to get my case dismissed. If the misfortune of needing a lawyer is ever weighing on your conscious, I highly recommend Doug, and I would happily pay Dougs rate, any time, any day. He is your shield and sword.

Speeding Violation Dismissed

Doug McGee was recommended to me by a family friend, and I am so glad I reached out for help. Doug was professional, timely, and gave great advice about my case. I was advised to complete an 8 hour driving course in advance of the court date, which I did, and Doug was able to get the charge dismissed...! I avoided all movement violations, demerit points, or any sort of fine (all I had to pay was the court fee). Don't hesitate to reach out to Doug for help, he was awesome!
