Professional, Honest and Thorough

After receiving my citation I contacted several attorneys to represent me. Mr Taylor was the first to personally respond and agree to handle my case. He was very honest in assessing my situation but provided no guarantees on the outcome. Once I provided him the necessary documents via email he and hi...s staff took care of everything else. I did not even have to show up in court. I found out the results of the court decision the very same day the case was presented in Court and the outcome was as he had predicted. His fees are extremely reasonable given the situation and circumstances. If you are in need of an attorney to handle a traffic citation, stop your internet searching and look no further than Joseph Taylor. You will receive professional representation from the very beginning to the end.

Very Professional

I am from New York and got a Reckless Driving by Speed ticket in Mecklenburg County, VA. Did not think much about it until I found out that paying the fine would put a permanent criminal record on me. I consulted Joe and his response was fast, professional and very detailed. He answered all of my que...stions even before I could ask them! I am very much impressed with his professionalism and response.

Very effective!

Mr. Taylor spared me from having to travel from NY to Va to handle a traffic matter that (originally unbeknownst to me) was a misdemeanor for exceeding 80mph (85/70). My clean license remains clean, as he was able to have my violation reduced to a "defective equipment" charge with a minimal fine an...d requisite driver improvement clinic that can be taken online. I am highly satisfied with his handling of this matter for me, as it could have gravely affected me personally and professionally. His rate was very fair, plus he and his team were very respectful and professional. After speaking with several other firms, I am very happy with my choice,
