Helped even without being hired

I needed help solving a legal problem from years ago, so I spent my morning emailing various lawyers in the VA area. Not only did the offices of Mr. Fisher answer my inquiries first, but he personally provided me the information I needed without asking recompense. Quality professional right here, I w...ould hire in a heartbeat.

Reckless Driving Ticket

Mr. Fisher was extremely helpful and open about my speeding ticket in Pulaski County. Cited with a 97 in a 70 and Mr. Fisher advised to get started on community service hours and putting together my previous driving history. He attended on my behalf as I am a resident of Charlotte NC. Ticket ...was reduced to improper driving. Best case situation achieved.

Not Guilty Plea, Head on Collision

Mr. Jonathan Preston Fisher's performance was exceptional by providing his expertise as my attorney to ensure I will not be prosecuted for reckless driving. All facts presented by witnesses and State Trooper was based on speculation and Mr. Fisher was very specific addressing the "speculation" eleme...nt of their presentation to the court. Judge concurred. I strongly and without reservation recommend Mr. Jonathan P. Fisher be considered by anyone in need of an Attorney that has the intelligence, experience and commitment for any client who is in need of professional support on any legal aspects specifically dealing with traffic issues.

Jonathan Fisher

I was charged with a DUI in January 2017 by Montgomery County, VA and hired Jonathan Fisher as my defense attorney. I was stopped by an officer after reportedly making a "wide" turn. I agreed to take a field sobriety test believing that I was not impaired. However, I was met with disrespect and ho...stility from the officer for the duration of the test including incessant yelling and overall unprofessional conduct. I refused a field breathalyzer test, only to take another at the station moments later. The test registered a 0.09 reading and I spent the night in a jail cell. I came to Jonathan for free consultation after reading some impressive reviews online. During the session, I could tell that his knowledge and skill base in DUI law was superior to other attorneys that I had consulted. He provided a multitude of arguments that we could pose to the prosecutor from the stop to the breathalyzer reading, and it appeared that there was a good shot of having the case thrown out, and at the very least reduced to a reckless driving charge. However, after reading the officer's arrest report, it was clear that he embellished the field sobriety test results, lied about reasonable suspicion for the stop, and did his very best to smear me in the eyes of a judge or prosecutor. Approaching the trial, it seemed my best case scenario would have been a reckless charge, potentially coupled with large fines, and a possibility of VASAP requirements and/or license suspensions/restrictions. From what I understand, his plan of attack was to refute any field sobriety results based on miscommunication and lack of instructional integrity on the part of the officer (I am very ADHD, have trouble with directions under stress, and the officer was young and inexperienced). He also wanted to attack the breathalyzer results based on an unknown machine margin of error (MOE). Then, just hours before the trial, Jonathan was able to convince the prosecutor and officer to settle on a reckless driving charge with a $500 fine (plus court fee), no class, no suspension! We were able to settle before the judge without having to go to trial. I would recommend Jonathan to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation. He charges a wholesome rate, but he is THE BEST, and is worth every penny, especially with a looming charge as serious as a DUI (in a very conservative part of the state). It was clear to me that his words carried weight in the courtroom and that the prosecutor, judge, and local lawyers were well aware of his skill set. He is approachable, tactful, and very professional. The most notable benefit to hiring Jonathan was being able push aside the stress and fear accompanying a DUI charge, and focus on life/work knowing that I was in the best hands possible. 10/10

DUI case

Mr Fisher was very professional and handled my case remarkably well. He was readily available to answer all my questions. I know I made the right choice in hiring him. He was obviously well respected by all in the courtroom. He was able to get my charges dropped and I was out of court in little ove...r an hour. Truly an amazing attorney!
