91/70 Speeding = Reckless Driving (Out of State)

Doug was great. I was driving from Texas to New Hampshire when I was pulled over for speeding in Virginia. When the officer gave me the ticket I was surprised that I had to go to court, as I figured I’d just have to pay a steep fine. Was ensued was a panic attack, as I realized the severity of this o...ffense in the state of Virginia. I immediately started googling, and found this site, and called Doug the next morning. Doug laid out a clear plan of attack, and I knew if I followed his recommendations to a tee, I’d have the best shot of avoiding jail time, and potentially having the misdemeanor dropped. Doug had my initial court date moved three months out (which was huge because I was only driving through VA) and I followed his recommendations exactly. I returned to VA for my court date later, and based on the steps I took had the offense reduced. Record: Clean for last 7 years, but speeding tickets and fender bender on my 10+ year history Penalty: Driving courses, community service, fine, 6 month mandatory clean driving record

Did a good job

Mr. McGee did a good job of setting expectations and communicating regarding my speeding matter. Based on the facts of my case, he was able to achieve a favorable result. While it was not a complete dismissal, the results were the best that could be reasonably expected under the circumstances. I woul...d recommend him and would use him a gain if needed.

If you’re looking for a dependable lawyer you’re in the right place.

Attorney McGee was amazing from beginning to end. I ultimately received a speeding ticket while passing through VA back to NC and as a result the outcome of speeding charge (82/65MPH) was reduced to a non-moving violation, defective equipment, with no Virginia demerits. Thank you so much.

Excellent experience with great outcome

Doug and I spoke at length prior to signing a contract. He represented me for a wreckless driving citation in the Culpeper area. Doug clearly explained what steps to take and was available by text and email through the process. He successfully had the citation reduced from 86/60 to 69/60 with all ...of the documentation I provided.

Misdemeanor Driving Charge (29 over) - Dropped to 9mph over

Mr. Mcgee gave me all the steps to get my misdemeanor dropped, and it worked! With his advice my misdemeanor charge of 29mph over in Virginia was dropped to a speeding ticket of 9mph over with no stipulations! Thanks to him my ticket was cleared from my record. Highly recommend hiring him.

  • 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.
