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.

Reckless Driving Misdemeanor

Driving down south to visit family I found myself in some trouble in Virginia, Mr. Doug McGee provided me with ample information on my charge and told me what actions I should take to help with my case. After following his advice, Mr. Doug successfully got my reckless driving charge fully dismissed. ...The potential points on my record were very worrying but Mr. Doug handled the case professionally and got the best results possible. Thank you once again! If I ever find myself in trouble in VA again Doug will be my go-to guy!

Reckless driving ticket dismissed.

Thank you again Mr. McGee, you were very helpful, very professional and was able to explain everything perfectly to a first time offender. Thank you very much for making this part of my crash my easier on me! I hope I never need your services again, but if I do, you're already hired! Thank you and G...od bless you.

Best Choice I Ever Made

I got a ticket for going 85 in a 60 mph work zone in rural Virginia. I had planned on paying the fine, but I hadn't realized how serious it was! I live in Alabama part time, and work as a waitress. I used to work for a law firm, who recommended Doug to me. Thank gosh they did! He was able to appear ...in court on my behalf so I didn't have to drive all that way and miss work, and my charge was reduced to faulty equipment! Which is a fine that's significantly easier to pay for someone working for tips. He was super communicative, and gave me clearly outlined prep steps to ensure the best outcome. Super nice person too! I'll use him for any Virginia traffic needs I have forever!

Friendly, fast, and outstanding results!

I was driving through Virginia when I got a ticket in Bland County. I was out of state and needed someone to help reduce my charges asap. I spoke to two different firms and hired Doug. He knew so much about the system and the people. I knew he would help me out. And he did! He got my ticket reduced ...to a non-moving violation in less than a month. I highly recommend him!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"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.
