Reckless in VA

I highly recommend Doug McGee. After receiving a Reckless Driving ticket he was extremely through explaining the impact of the ticket and the course of action required to potentially have the ticket reduced to a lower infraction. After following Doug’s sage advice and I happy to report he worked ve...ry hard and was successful ! I couldn’t be happier! He took a lot of time and made sure I understood everything. Doug is very personable and he made a horrible experience better!

Reckless driving

I was ticketed for reckless driving, for doing (89/65) mph zone with my two kids in the car. When I first started speaking to attorneys about my traffic violation, none of them reassured me I was in the right hands until I talked to Doug McGee. Doug advised me on several ways to help get the charges... lowered, considering this was my first ticket. On the day of court, Doug cut a deal with the prosecutor resulting in my reckless driving charge being reduced to defective equipment. Thanks to Doug McGee representing me exceptionally, my record is still clean! If you're looking for a knowledgeable attorney with excellent communication, advice, and service, I highly recommend Doug McGee to everyone! Thank you again, Doug. I am forever grateful to you!!

Very Good lawyer - knows what he's doing and cares about his clients

Doug really went to bat for me. He's really well-informed, and he gave me good advice, which I followed. I couldn't have dreamt of a more favorable result! Go with Doug McGee -- you won't regret it. He really cares, is empathic, and is well-informed about all the players in the court.

Honest, Dependable, Knowledgeable, Highly competent

Doug did a great job explaining the potential consequences of my traffic violation. Doug walked me through the process giving me peace of mind and the comfort that we were doing everything we could. The case was dismissed, I could not have asked for more. I strongly recommend Doug, he goes the "extra... mile" to help with traffic violation cases.

Exceptional Service and Result

As an out of state driver charged with a 4 point speeding violation, I did a google search for legal assistance. Believe me, Doug is THE legal counsel you need. After I filled out a form for contact, Doug called me back that same night, we talked briefly about my violation and the conversation was h...onest and straight to the point. Doug then followed up with email outlining exactly what we talked about and some steps that I should complete to help mitigate the case. Due to my schedule, I was unable to complete the mitigating steps requested and did not expect leniency from the courts. Despite giving Doug very little to work with in the courtroom, he successfully argued on my behalf for a defective equipment charge. I could not be happier with the level of service, communication and result from Douglas McGee. Thank you!

"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."

  • 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.
