109/65

Doug is a great attorney. I was charged with 109/65 reckless driving. I was looking at (I’m assuming) at-least 30 days jail; but with Doug, I came out of court with only a $250 fine and 30day restricted license. Not to mention, my record had other tickets on it, including another reckless. His cando...r and professionalism are top notch. He genuinely cares about each case he takes and gives great advice on what to do pre-court. I highly recommend Doug McGee to anyone, you will not regret it. -Andrew.

Excellent Service

To be very honest I was scared of a speeding ticket, finding out that you can get jail time or suspended license scared me, ever since I contacted Doug and had him help me with the case felt alot better, knowing that he can and will do the best he can to have your back and make sure you're life is al...ot easier. Highly recommend Doug. Hoping I wont have to contact him about more court dates but, he will be the one I will contact for sure if I ever need him

Exceptional Service

Doug was provided exceptional service! He gave excellent advice and had terrific communication. I was informed with every step of the process and any changes made to my case. Everything worked in my favor and Doug will stay at the top of my list.

Hit & Run, driving on suspended, etc.

Doug is such an amazing lawyer. My husband and I were referred to him by a close friend and we are so grateful for him. My husband was driving on a suspended license due to not having insurance coverage. He was driving us home one day when our tires slid on ice and ended up hitting two vehicles. My h...usband had and anxiety attack and fled the scene and could not take his foot off the gas. The entire situation was a mess and we just knew to expect the worse. With Doug as our back bone, my husbands felony was dropped to a misdemeanor, no jail time and no suspended license. Never in our lives did we feel so secure to know Doug would handle everything the way he should. Every phone call and text message was answered. I would recommend him to anyone! Doug, thank you for everything. You’re truly a blessing!

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 .
