Mr. Taylor as my attorney

Mr. Lee Taylor was my attorney for a traffic case, he was nothing but nice and extremely helpful. With his help we got the best possible outcome for my case.

0 to 100

Anytime your child gets him/herself in any trouble it is very hard and can be a financial burden on us, the parents, at least on the front end. My daughter left School and headed home for the Thanksgiving break, while traveling up 81 north following a friend she got pulled over by a state trooper wh...o gave her a ticket for doing 100 mph in a 70 mph zone. This is where Lee came in as we were given his name from a family member who knew of him. My daughter was looking at jailtime, suspended license, and big fines. Lee came and questioned the officer after the officer had told his "story" and poked holes at his credibility. The judge knew something didn't didn't add up and with the testimony of my daughter and Lee, the judge lowered her speed and gave her a chance that she needed. Thank you Lee for lol you have done, One concerned parent!!

Highly Recommended

I recently hired Mr. Taylor to represent me on a Reckless Driving ticket (87/70) received in Rockbridge County by a local officer. Being from a neighboring state, I wanted to ensure I had someone that was thorough, and also familiar with the local courts. Mr. Taylor delivered on all accounts! I ...always believe in giving credit where credit is due. Mr. Taylor phenomenal job in representing my case, and was able to negotiate a favorable outcome in court without my presence. He and his paralegal were always prompt in keeping me updated, highly informed, and always willing to answer any and all of my questions/calls.

Professional Attorney

I was speeding on I-81 in the Lexington, Va area, live in NJ & needed a Professional Attorney to represent me. After checking this website, reading the Bio on Atty Lee Taylor, and speaking to others by telephone in the community, I contacted Mr. Taylor's office. We conversed over the telephone and... I received sound practical advice. Everything Mr Taylor told me, that day, he would do was thoroughly & professionally accomplished. Mr Taylor suggested I attend an 8 hr AAA driver training course rather than an on-line course. This advice played a major factor in the judges decision because the Judge knew, by my actions, I was serious about what I had done and the far reaching implications of speeding. Mr Taylor had the court date changed to give me time to attend the AAA course and for him to become familiar with the details of my case. The day before the rescheduled court appearance, Mr Taylor met with me in his office to review exactly what would transpire in court. He allayed my fears & I knew once meeting Mr. Taylor that this was a professional man of integrity. The next day we met outside the courtroom and when called before the judge, Mr Taylor had all of the supporting documentation ready to substantiate my testimony. He asked relevant questions to keep me on track & I felt he did an outstanding job representing me. It was most obvious that Mr Taylor has developed a tremendous respect over the years from the Judge, prosecutor and members of the court. I could sense their total appreciation for Mr Taylor's honesty & integrity. I do not plan on speeding anywhere, nevertheless in the great State of Va; however, if I needed an Atty in the Lexington, Va area I would go to Mr. Taylor immediately. He truly is an outstanding Attorney with the highest degree of character and I highly recommend him.

An Excellent Representation

I had a pleasure of meeting Mr. Taylor this morning regarding a reckless driving ticket that I had received in Lexington, VA going 83 in 70. He was very well prepared and helped me reduce the charge to 80 and non-reckless. A highly recommended lawyer!
