Reckless Driving dismissed with no charges.

Hired Doug Mcgee to represent me in a reckless driving charge I picked up after hydroplaining into a guard rail while getting off at an exit. Doug walked me through the process of how everything would go down. Had me provide lots of documentation highlighting my character, extended training, certific...ations for my job and volunteer work I provide for my community. Doug discussed with the Prosecutor and got them to agree to press for a lesser charge while still pleading not guilty. Doug showed the discrepancies behind the accident, the quality my character and the steps I had already taken to make sure damages were covered, that I had completed a reckless driving class ahead of the trial and done everything I could to make this right. In the end the judge declared, "it was a very rare day" that he'd dismissed the charges. No cost. Thank you your hard work. I would gladly have you represent me again.

Excellent Attention!!

I was coming from my vacation from NC to CT and I was stopped for doing 88 in a 70 zone. I had no idea it is considered Reckless Driving in Virginia. I called few law firms and I did not get much info besides how much their fees were even after having a consultation with them. Doug McGee was the only... attorney who I contacted who explained the process to me and took the time to reassure me I was in good hands. He was with me each step of the way. Any questions or concerns I had he was there to answer them. If anybody else is having an issue like this I 100% recommend Doug McGee. He made the process easily and the money you will be paying him isn't anything compared to the consequences you would face if convicted.

Doug Is The Man!!

If I could give 10 stars I totally would. I was pulled over in Virginia for reckless driving and speeding 85/70. Doug was able to knock it down to a non moving violation because of a defective speedometer. Doug has saved my job and my livelihood for sure. After all was said and done the fine, court f...ees and Doug’s fee. It was still less than what the ticket would’ve cost me. I call that a great deal. Thanks again Doug, you’re a lifesaver!!

Spectacular Lawyer- Mr. Doug McGee

I live in Maryland and just returned from my court day in Sussex Virginia. I am very glad Mr. Doug McGee was by my side. I was charged with reckless driving on my way to Outer Banks with my family a few weeks ago. I simply did not see the sudden change in the speed limit and got caught in a speed t...rap (nice start to vacation). The officer cited me as reckless and stated I would have to come to court. I had absolutely no idea what any of this meant. I had never even had a speeding ticket. After researching it (yes, while on vacation), I realized I was being criminally charged, which was unbelievable to me. Furthermore, I am a professional who cannot have any such record on my background, as it is checked regularly. I also knew none in Virginia. I reached out to several lawyers (for the first time ever to represent me). Mr. McGee was the only one that returned my call promptly and spent nearly 40 minutes educating me and explaining that I had to take it serious but that we would be okay, all without charging me. He was polite, professional and very patient with my ignorance on this whole matter. He advised me meticulously on court preparation and what I needed before we appeared in from of the judge. After I spoke to him I felt much better and hired him. He was available to me at all times as needed. I completed all his instructions. Today, in court, he was phenomenal. He pleaded our case and my background to the judge and was able to persuade him to drop the reckless without need for additional community service. Let me add, this judge was very good and experienced, but not easily persuaded as I saw with other defendants. I also got to observe other lawyers representing other defendants and I must say, I knew I had selected the right lawyer. Mr. McGee is an experienced go to lawyer who happens to also be a good man, as I got to know him today. Do yourself a favor and take the charges serious and hire this serious lawyer. I hope I never go through this again, but he is my lawyer in the future, should the need arise. Overall, his fee was very reasonable for the spectacular representation. Thank you Mr. McGee.

Excellent!!

Douglas McGee was beyond amazing! He was brutally honest about the consequences of this ticket but also made clear that working as team could deliver good results. He made himself available for whatever questions I had. McGee did such an amazing job that my ticket got dismissed entirely with no court... fee! I’m so relieved I found him! If you need a lawyer, you better call McGee!!!!
