Reckless driving

I was stopped doing 104 in a 70 on my way home from visiting family. I just didn't notice the speed. When I got home the search for an attorney started. Douglas was given my case from another lawfirm and I am glad they gave it to him. He always made time to answer my many questions and was very easy ...to talk to. He made sure i understood what consequences I could possibly face but also lead me in the right direction to help mitigate things before court. I followed all of his instructions and it payed off. With his help i went from possibly facing a year jail time with over 2000 in fines and a possible suspended license to a 250 dollar fine and court fees. He was able to get it taken down to Improper operation. All I can say is if you need an attorney Douglas is your man. I can't recommend him enough .

Saved me a fortune

I was in a pretty bad situation (reckless ticket) and Doug, in a short amount of time, was able to help me out and get the best outcome. I am so grateful to him and would highly recommend him!

Knowledgeable and patient.

I had a wreckless driving charge out in Shenandoah County it was my first offence that severe and I was very nervous about the outcome. I contacted several lawyers and Doug was the most prompt and professional that I delt with. He was highly competent and knew the Shenandoah area and its laws well. H...e made time for my MANY questions and concerns and while the answers where not always the most comforting they were well informed and honest. In the end he got my wreckless ticket bumped down to a significantly less severe charge. The judge that tried my case literally said I was lucky to have him as my lawyer. Follow his instructions and I'm sure he'll do his best for you.

Wreckless driving charge dismissed!!

I received a wreckless driving charge after I rear ended someone and after reaching out to a few firms Doug was the first person that actually explained the process and made me feel important. Through out the entire process he was very transparent and thorough! Leading up to my court date he explaine...d possible out comes and what I needed to do to mitigate them. During the hearing he was on it and made sure I knew exactly what was going on (this was my first time going to court ever). —-The hearing ended with the judge dismissing the case. —-post hearing we sat down and he explained everything that just happened and what to expect next. He was up front and honest the entire time!!

Dui/refusal to blow & a reckless driving ticket

All charges were dropped to a reckless and community service, and I kept my license with not restrictions, which was really outstanding. He had a me do a lot of homework but it allowed him to understand me and my situation and background and used that to form the best case he could and he did a ...spectacular job. Hire Doug, but make sure to give him detailed homework because it really helps and he’s a kind and caring person who does his job exceedingly well.

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.
