Expect the BEST outcome for your situation

I was charged with a DWI, reckless driving and leaving the scene of an accident ( Total of 3 charges). Doug had my charges reduced to improper driving and reckless driving. My driving license WAS NOT suspended, I DID NOT have to get a breathalyzer installed, Suspended all jail time. Doug looked for e...ver angle possible to leverage my defense against the prosecutor, he keep me informed of all information well ahead of time. By far the best attorney I have ever had ( I have needed quite a few ). Pay what he asks, do what he asks, and expect the BEST outcome for your situation. There is no one else that I would ever call when/if legal services/advise are needed in the future.

Reckless Driving offense Reduced!!!

I was traveling to Virginia to visit a friend and was cited in Sussex County for Reckless driving (81/70). I was unaware of the state law and the significant consequences involved until literally the day before my hearing. I called Douglas McGee and he took my case with no hesitation. My initial hea...ring was continued until March 10th, 2020. At the final hearing, not only did I not have to appear Mr. McGee got my Reckless Driving charge reduced to a non driving offense which resulted in me having to pay a small fine considering what I could have paid. If you need legal representation you have to call Doug McGee. You wont be disappointed!

Wreck less driving

Doug really saved me from getting a misdemeanor of wreck less driving all the way down to a non-moving violation. Was extremely informative and provided me with everything I needed to do on my end to help my outcome. Extremely professional and very nice.

Good Attorney to Work With

I have been charged with Reckless driving in WV for driving at 86/65 MPH. Doug helped me to reduce the case to a non moving - violation. I paid the fine but there are no points or criminal charges. I would highly recommend Doug, if you have any case related to speeding.

Highly Recommend

Thanks to Mr. McGee, my six point charge of reckless driving was reduced to a non-moving violation, defective equipment, with no Virginia demerit points, and I avoided the misdemeanor, the points associated with reckless driving in Virginia, and the possible consequences such as jail and license susp...ension. I have a clear driving record and was very concerned. I have never received any type of ticket or violation and did not know what to do. After researching the consequences of the charge, it quickly became apparent that I needed assistance, especially since I am out of state. I am so very thankful to Mr. McGee for his time, patience, and guidance. I had numerous questions, and he took the time to explain everything in great detail and outlined for me the entire process. He outlined for me exactly what I needed to provide him, so that he could represent my case and hopefully receive the best possible outcome. I'm relieved to say that Mr. McGee was able to obtain the best outcome, and I am so very grateful. I am so glad I hired Mr. McGee to represent me. If you are hesitant about hiring an attorney out of state, please be assured, you will not regret hiring Mr. McGee. He is a true professional and is dedicated to serving his clients.

"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."

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.
