Va Reckless Driving

I’m from out of state and I was driving down Smyth county on a highway with just forestland on both sides when I got pulled over. I was going 84 on a 70. When I got to California, I got into contact with Doug. The rest is history because he got my case dismissed. Really appreciated him because he wa...s down to earth and overall a great lawyer.

Good Attorney to Work With

I have been charged with Reckless driving in WV for driving at 86/65 MPH. Doug helped me to reduce the case to a non moving - violation. I paid the fine but there are no points or criminal charges. I would highly recommend Doug, if you have any case related to speeding.

Highly Recommend

Thanks to Mr. McGee, my six point charge of reckless driving was reduced to a non-moving violation, defective equipment, with no Virginia demerit points, and I avoided the misdemeanor, the points associated with reckless driving in Virginia, and the possible consequences such as jail and license susp...ension. I have a clear driving record and was very concerned. I have never received any type of ticket or violation and did not know what to do. After researching the consequences of the charge, it quickly became apparent that I needed assistance, especially since I am out of state. I am so very thankful to Mr. McGee for his time, patience, and guidance. I had numerous questions, and he took the time to explain everything in great detail and outlined for me the entire process. He outlined for me exactly what I needed to provide him, so that he could represent my case and hopefully receive the best possible outcome. I'm relieved to say that Mr. McGee was able to obtain the best outcome, and I am so very grateful. I am so glad I hired Mr. McGee to represent me. If you are hesitant about hiring an attorney out of state, please be assured, you will not regret hiring Mr. McGee. He is a true professional and is dedicated to serving his clients.

Excellent job!

I was given a ticket for “failure to maintain control of vehicle” in Virginia. This is a 6 point demerit On your license, the same as wreck less driving. Doug took my case and reduced my charge to a non moving violation, which carries no points off my license. This is huge because I plan on getting... my cdl license. Doug is very professional. I highly recommend.

He saved me from reckless driving

He saved me from reckless driving that twice the speed limit, and he is a very kind and patient to me throughout the whole process. Even the English is my second language, he explains the every detail to me and help me to reduce the consequences as low as possible. I am very grateful for his help.

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.
