Great attorney

I got a ticket for an illegal U-turn while traveling through VA. Despite having past infractions in VA, Doug was able to have my case dismissed in my absence. I highly recommend Doug.

Exceeded all of my expectations

I can't be more happy! Douglas reduced my Reckless Driving charge (101 MPH) to Improper Driving thereby avoiding a misdemeanor conviction, an active jail sentence, license suspension by the court, twice the Virginia points and higher fines. This reduced ticket is in the lowest point category for Virg...inia tickets. I still can't believe in what he has done. Thank you Douglas!

Better outcome than I could have hoped for

I was cited for going 86mph in a 70mph zone. Mr McGee was very helpful and professional. He represented me in court as I was unable to make the trip from NJ. He was very reassuring and was able to get the charges down to a defective equipment charge. When he called to tell me the results after court,... I was so relieved! I would definitely recommend Mr. Douglas P McGee to anyone who has been cited in VA.

Amazing Ally in a Crisis

I was involved in a severe car accident in VA and was issued a citation for an unsafe lane change. I was very shaken physically and emotionally and fearful of what the legal repercussions might be. I've had a clean driving record my whole adult life and live out of state and I was almost going to jus...t pay the citation but got the advice to look online for a local attorney to advise me. I was directed to Doug and from the start he was responsive, kind, compassionate, and informed. I retained him and followed all of his suggestions. He was very attuned to the dynamics of the local court and had a flexible strategy. I am so relieved that he successfully had the charge dismissed, thereby averting 4 demerit points, a moving violation, and a more vulnerable position should a civil case occur. I can't recommend him more highly.

Speeding ticket

Mr. Douglas McGee was phenomenal, and he helped to reduce my speeding ticket to a nonmoving ticket defective equipment. I am from NC state and was passing through VA and got a speeding ticket. He explained each step of the process in detail and asked me to take the necessary steps to do for my ticket.... He was very professional and courteous. I would recommend highly. He is the best.

"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.
