Excellent representation

I found this law group just browsing internet. I am a “out of Towner ” and got ticket for speeding on the Christmas Day driving from FL to see my daughter in VA. I was upset and didn’t know what to do . We connected, in a couple of hours I got information that I need , everything was explained to me .... Staff is very patient and accommodating, very professional and knowledgeable. Easy access , easy communication. You pay the fee, send yiur driving record , some school and you get your issues resolved without leaving your house . I am very satisfied and will be confident every time I drive there . They got my back ! Laura was amazing! Thank you .

Reduction in Points

Frankie really helped me with my speeding ticket. As a new driver to NC and VA I was not really knowledgeable of all the rules and consequences based on how much you were speeding. Frankie explained things thoroughly and made sure I didn’t end up getting my license suspended. I am not a regular speed...er and would have been very frustrated getting my license suspended after 1 ticket. Frankie was able to get my speeding reduced to a 0pt infraction! Thank you

Excellent result

I was driving from Virginia on I 81 for on the way to Tennessee when I was pulled over and told I was speeding at above the limit for reckless driving in the Commonwealth. Once I understood the draconian nature of the charge and what it would entail, I reached out the Mark Hurt Law firm due to their... reputation, as evidenced by the reviews here on this site. In Virginia, reckless driving can add six points to one's license and be a criminal misdemeanor that at the very least remains on one's license, typically requires up to 20-25 hours of community service in that area, and could result in a four-figure fine and possible imprisonment. Insane as that may sound, it is the law. Thankfully, the Hurt firm was able to secure an agreement that reduced the points to three, the charge to a lesser one, the fine to three figures, and the community service to zero. I am grateful for not just for the result, but for the time spent by Rhonda and others at the firm to explain the charges and implications, explore options, and treat me with exceptional courtesy in spite of their busy schedule. I would definitely recommend this firm especially to anyone who finds themselves in a similar predicament.

Drivers License Suspension Avoided

I reached out to Mr.Hurt after I had received a second speeding ticket within one year. I was worried that I would have my license suspended but Mr.Hurt convinced the judge to let me off with only a fine. Mr.Hurt was easy to work with and was also very informative.
