Choose Douglas P McGee for Southern Virginia

I couldnt have asked for better counsel than Doulgas McGee. Extremely nice to work with. He gave me an extensive amount of time explaining the entire process without cost for our first conversation, very detailed guidance and always very responsive to texts or messages when I needed additional help ...or questions answered and was able to negotiate the lowest fine possible without my attendance needed for my traffic offense. I would highly highly recommend his services.

Reckless driving defense

Doug did an amazing job of getting my reckless driving (class 1 misdemeanor) reduced to defective equipment. This means no points on my license!

Hire Doug!

Driving through Smyth County I was charged with a Class 1 Misdemeanor charge of Reckless Driving (88 MPH in a 70 MPH Zone) in Smyth County. Doug had it reduced to Defective Equipment, thereby avoiding a misdemeanor conviction, potential jail, license suspension by the court. Doug is the man, easy to... work with and if you follow what he asks you to do you most likely will have the same outcome. Highly recommend!

Just hire Doug, other lawyers use scare tactics

I received a reckless driving ticket in Virginia for speeding (>15 mph) on my way to vacation. Doug talked with me every step of the way and helped reassure me it would be okay (penalties include up to 12 months in prison!!!). I followed all of his instructions to the best of my ability and it ended ...up as a no point fine. He was awesome and I would I highly recommend him for the most aggressive speeding laws in the country (Virginia). Also I was out of state and didn’t not have to attend court in person.

"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.
