Awesome, Exceptional Lawyer

Douglas McGee is an outstanding lawyer. If you need a professional lawyer, he is the one for you. I was charged with 6 felony counts of conspiracy to deliver drugs to prisoners and because of Doug 4 counts were Nolle Prosequi and after a year of good behavior, probation and 25 hours of community se...rvice the other 2 charges will be dropped. This was totally a great outcome and I give Doug my highest recommendation as he earned it from our first conversation. He was absolutely the best lawyer to represent me. Being represented by him is literally a privilege. He is an exceptional lawyer and person and I highly recommend his services.

Extremely talented lawyer - 3 drug charges Dropped & Cleared!

MR. DOUG MCGEE GOT ALL OF MY FELONY DRUG CHARGES DISMISSED AND OFF MY RECORD, CLEARING MY NAME FROM THE SYSTEM. Unbelievable success with Doug every step of the way. Doug McGee far exceeded my expectations of a criminal defense attorney in a crisis situation where my reputation in society, college de...gree, professional career and entire life ahead was on the line. I had 2 first time felony drug distribution charges with mandatory jail time and one misdemeanor drug charge, all 3 were completely dismissed and cleared. He went above and beyond the call of duty with every single interaction and he made sure to communicate directly with the most important people in the court system. He responded to my initial inquiry within minutes of me leaving a voicemail. Doug was honest with what his expectations were with my case and walked me through every step of the process. He was always quick with responses to any questions I had and he made me feel as if I were his only client. Doug was compassionate while working with me but tough in the courtroom – exactly what I wanted in a lawyer. I couldn’t have asked for a more professional, driven, knowledgeable, caring attorney. Do not hesitate to call and speak with Doug about your case. I assure you, you will not be disappointed! He is very familiar with a multitude of jurisdictions and I assure you he knows the right people in the right places to win your case!

He saved my life

I was charged with marijuana possession and got an speeding ticket. My situation was extra stressful since I’m applauding for citizenship. Mt Doug walked me they all the process and bare with me all the way. We didn’t meet until court day but he was always in contact by phone and mail. He got my mari...juana possession charges dropped and on top of that my speeding ticket was downgraded to defective equipment. He got me the best outcome possible. I highly recommend him

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.
