Excellent Attorney & Excellent Result

I had the privilege of working with Doug McGee after being charged with a misdemeanor for reckless driving. From our first interaction, Doug was both thorough and kind. He made a very serious and stressful situation feel more manageable by taking the time to explain every step of the process and pati...ently answering all of my questions along the way. It was clear that Doug was genuinely invested in my case—he approached it with care, professionalism, and a deep understanding of the law. Thanks to his efforts, my charge was ultimately reduced to the lowest-level speeding ticket, which was a huge relief. I’m incredibly grateful for his guidance and would highly recommend Doug McGee to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate attorney.

Great Lawyer - Great Results!

Outstanding Lawyer, Mr. Gee is one of the finest. He explained everything that I needed to know in a phone call with him and a very educational email with a recap of the phone call. I felt very at ease after our conversation and I'm very pleased with the result. If looking for a great Traffic Lawyer,... this is the guy you want to defend you.

Saving the day!

Mr. McGee was outstanding. I was driving home to South Carolina from Ohio after visiting my sick grandmother, and with a lot on my mind, I didn’t realize I was going 84 in a 70 — something I absolutely should have been more mindful of, especially in Virginia. This was the first traffic ticket I had e...ver received, so I decided to seek legal representation. After coming across Mr. McGee, I’m very grateful I chose to work with him. From the start, he was clear, direct, and walked me through exactly what to expect. I asked if there was any way to expedite the process, and he was able to have the court date moved up significantly, which helped bring the matter to a quick and smooth resolution. Thanks to his representation, my speeding ticket was reduced to a non-moving violation. I wasn’t required to attend any driving school or complete any courses, which was a huge relief. He also appeared in court on my behalf, saving me the time and stress of traveling back from South Carolina to Virginia. His honesty, transparency, and professionalism were very much appreciated. I highly recommend his services.

Couldn’t be happier

Giving 5 stars is not enough. I received a ticket in smyth county VA for 107/70 and I had consulted with a few other attorneys telling me they either wouldn’t take the case because I’d lose or they’d say that I was absolutly gonna have to serve jail time over this matter and lose my license and I ha...ve to have my license to work. . As soon as I spoke to Doug he layed it all out. Worst case scenario and all. But he was very optimistic with a lot of community service and defensive driving classes and a few other things that we could get a very favorable outcome and man did we. Zero jail time and no suspended license. This man knows what he’s doing. Do not be discouraged by other council. At least give him a call for a consult but believe me, you’ll hire him. I hope this eases some minds out there as to when I got my ticket I was just beside myself as to the severity Virginia places on speeding tickets. It’s gonna cost you, sure but it’s a lesson learned.

Wonderful Experience

I received a Reckless Driving ticket for 95 mph in a 70 mph zone. I received all of the MASS mail-outs from a variety of attorneys but upon researching local attorneys, I came across Mr. McGee. THANKFULLY! I reside in a different state, making a court appearance less than convenient. Mr. McGee is an ...excellent communicator who knows the area, prosecutors, and judges and was able to take care of everything remotely. The steps he told me to take, from community service, online driving courses, references, etc. proved Invaluable! What could have cost me a criminal record, jail time, ongoing fees and consequences…….ended up costing me some time, attorney’s fee, and court costs with NO residual complications. I am SO Thankful to have reached out to him. He is Great to talk to and genuinely cares about your personal situation. I would Highly recommend this attorney and look forward to meeting him one day when I travel back through that area. NOT your typical Attorney-Client experience. This gentleman is Well WORTH the fee he charges!
