Great Attorney

I called and acquired Mr Baker's service for a traffic violation in Va. It was a last minute call and Scott was able to provide assistance and help me with my traffic violation. I would recommend his service to anyone that happens to get pulled over in the great state of VA, and if needed (hopeful...ly not) I would hire him again.

Out of state reckless driving

Mr. Baker was very attentive and helpful with my case. I was charged with reckless driving in Virginia on the way back to Georgia from Massachusetts and he got it reduced to a regular speeding fine without a misdemeanor charge. I was ecstatic that I didn't need to go back to Virginia to attend court....

More than luck

Mr. Baker knew exactly what to say and how to word things to help me in court. He also knew a bunch of people and knowledge for every question I asked! Got my reckless driving charge dropped to improper driving!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
