Took care of a ticket for me
I got a speeding ticket, the first in 40 years. I didn’t know what my options were. I called Hurt’s office and found that it was possible to make the ticket go away. Hurt handled it for me. I dealt with Frankie who answered all my questions and held my hand through the process. She did a great job.
