Posted by Nick | January 27, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Professional & Affordable

Doug helped us out with a massive speeding ticket in Virginia. We are not local, and it was great to work with an attorney that was professional and helped guide us through what could have been a very difficult process to navigate alone. The outcome was more than we could have hoped for. I highly rec...ommend working with Doug if you need a traffic attorney in Virginia!

Reckless Driving dismissed

Class 1 Misdemeanor Charge of Reckless Driving in Northampton County was dismissed thereby avoiding a misdemeanor conviction, potential jail, license suspension by the court, all of the six Virginia points, a moving violation of any kind and significant fines. All done in my absence. Doug's pre-trial... recommendations were the key to having the case dismissed. Not only effective in court, but also a friendly person who helps put a stressful situation at ease. I am very thankful I hired Doug.

81/70 Speeding Dismissed

Would recommend, very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He got my speeding ticket in Allegany Co, VA dismissed.

Case dismissed

I was pulled over for a number of traffic violations in Virginia and called Attorney Doug McGee. The charges could have caused me to lose my driver's license for a period of time. Doug expained the process to me, advised me on steps I could take to potentially obtain a more favorable result, and ulti...mately he was able to get the violations entirely dismissed. Doug is personable, professional, and (most importantly) gets results. I could not possibly recommend him more highly.

A meticulous professional.

Everything you'd want from a lawyer, you get with Doug. Someone who understands the system, who loves what they do, knows when to fight with the sword or the pencil. I partnered with Doug because I was issued a "Following too closely" citation after in accident I was involved with, Doug immediately f...rom the first phone call calmed my nerves and spoke with confidence. He gave me many different options on how I wanted to proceed and once I communicated my goals, he quickly aligned with that vision and gave me several different strategies on how he was going to fight on my behalf towards my goals. I could write an essay on how Doug portrayed everything I needed as my lawyer, but to put it simply, he was able to get my case dismissed. If the misfortune of needing a lawyer is ever weighing on your conscious, I highly recommend Doug, and I would happily pay Dougs rate, any time, any day. He is your shield and sword.

"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."

Avvo Rating

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.
