Best man for the Job

Couldn't have asked for more speedy and professional outcome, he stepped up for me being Im in NJ and made my ticket just vanish. Hopefully won't meet him again but if I do, he's first on my list...

Speeding Ticket in Virginia (Rt. 13)

I was referred to John Greenside by Legal Shield to represent me for a speeding ticket I received in a small town on Route 13 while driving to Virginia Beach from New Jersey for a vacation. I found Mr. Greenside to be very professional, assessable. succinct in informing me what he could do on my beh...alf to get the ticket dismissed. I was advised to contact Joyner's Driving School and register to take the online Driver's Improvement Course (Joyner's Driving School) due to my being an out of state driver to avoid having to travel 4-5 hours to attend court. He would attend and represent me in court on my behalf on the court date. I followed his instructions and completed the Driver Improvement Course and Joyner's delivered the Drivers Improvement Completion Certificate to Mr. Greenside. He attended court and the certificate was forwarded to the judge for dismissal. Being an out of state driver, it was calming having a competent attorney working on my behalf from afar and not having to travel 4-5 hours to attend the court hearing in person. Mr. Greenside followed up in writing with a summary of my case for my records. I would rate John Greenside as an excellent attorney for driving violations

Case dismissed!

I was charged with following too close. Working with the judge and officer Mr Greenside insisted on the charge being dropped. I paid nothing to the Norfolk courts. I'm very pleased with the value Mr Greenside provided me. My father and I will continue to enlist his services.

Excellent service

John was able to reduce my fines as well as bring about the judgment of faulty equipment. LegalShield is really a great service and I would go to John again for any help I might have out of state in Virginia. Thank you!!
