Great help with a ticket

Mr. McGee did a great job handling my out of state driving ticket and getting it reduced significantly. The process was smooth and easy, he was clear with what he needed from me, was very responsive and was a pleasure to work with, very professional.

Fabulous!

Doug is not only a fabulous lawyer but has literally become part of our family. His life experiences coupled with his education and understanding of the young mind has made our navigation of parenthood much less overwhelming. I strongly encourage you to call Doug McGee.

Got reckless driving case dismissed

Hired to be my lawyer when I received a reckless driving ticket (78 in a 55 mph) in a small, rural county renowned for being tough with reckless speeding tickets. Mr. McGee is very familiar with the area I was charged—which I believed made him in invaluable in representing me. He was a prompt and ef...fective communicator in what I needed to do to prepare for the trial, and he is very knowledgeable in traffic law. Additionally, he was very kind, patient, and reassuring with my nerves about the case. Eventually, he got it dismissed, as I had a clean driving record and followed all his directions. I highly recommend him. Mr. McGee is a truly professional, experienced, and competent attorney.

The Best in the Business to Defend Your Reckless Speeding Driving Ticket

Doug is an incredible resource and ally to have on your side when facing any traffic ticket especially those related to Virginia's strict speeding laws. Beyond great communication Doug knows the steps that you need to take in order to put yourself in the best position possible for a favorable outcome.... In my instance I followed his guidance prior to my court date and when it came time for my hearing on a 92MPH in a 70MPH zone ticket he was able to get it reduced to a Defective Equipment non-moving charge. Truly the best to represent you! Doug made all the difference!

Friendly, fast, and outstanding results!

I was driving through Virginia when I got a ticket in Bland County. I was out of state and needed someone to help reduce my charges asap. I spoke to two different firms and hired Doug. He knew so much about the system and the people. I knew he would help me out. And he did! He got my ticket reduced ...to a non-moving violation in less than a month. I highly recommend him!

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."

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.
