Handled my case very professionally

Mr. Altman represented me in a simple traffic matter and provided outstanding service. He was responsive, reliable, and reassuring. He always responded promptly to my emails and calls, and he kept me informed about what was happening with my court date. His price was very reasonable, and it was we...ll worth hiring him to take care of my ticket for me. He couldn't have made it simpler!

Speeding Ticket = Solved!

I received a speeding ticket for going 80 mph in a 65 mph zone. I called Mr. Altman, paid his fee, and he took care of everything. The ticket was reduced, no points on my license, and everyone was happy, including the state of NC who received over $100 in court fees. Mr. Altman's fee was very reasona...ble for the amount of service I received.

Wonderful!!!

I was well pleased with the attention Mr. Altman gave to my case. I was updated periodically on how my case was going.

Durwood Kevin Altman is an outstanding attorney and I should know. Please see my review

A few years ago, I was stopped by NC State trooper. I had recently moved to NC but, as I still owned my former residence, I had never switched over my license to a NC one. I was actually living in two states and one cannot be licensed in both. My drivers license from my former state was valid and cle...an. I had been driving for 35 years, had spotless record and was retired from law enforcement. The trooper didn't care about any of that. He ticketed me for not having a NC drivers license. This is the same as charging someone with having no license at all. That's a class 2 misdemeanor in NC and carries some potentially heavy consequences. Enter Attorney Altman. He had sent an advertisement to my home and sounded confident that he could help me. When I subsequently spoke to him by phone, he sounded even more confident. He told me that he understood why I was upset and that he could clear up what happened by going to court. He told me that I didn't even need to be there. I could hardly believe that I found someone who would not only listen to my side of things, but was enthusiastic about defending me. The fact that my good name was being smeared was important to him. He told me that he would represent me for an unbelievably small fee. So low, that I felt like I was robbing him. I paid the fee, he went to court, and by that afternoon he send me a very nice email about how things went. He had gotten the charges dismissed. My good record was restored. I wrote back to him and told him that I was going to refer him to everyone I knew in this area...and I did. I have known many lawyers in my life. Not from being in any kind of trouble, but through my career in law enforcement. I do not remember ever dealing with one as confident, capable and caring as Attorney Altman. He really impressed me, on many levels. He turned a bad experience into a good one for me. I also like that he is a family man and a patriotic American who has greatly served his country in a highly advanced capacity in the military. I rate him 5 stars across the board and only hope that he doesn't move away from here!

Speeding Ticket

I got a traffic Ticket for doing 20>SL, after a long time between tickets, Kevin helped me reduce it to 5>SL and reduce my penalties. Thanks to Kevin's help I was able to forego a huge fine and possibly having demerit points on my license.

"Want a Lawyer who will stay up late researching creative ways to defend your case? How about using an inconspicuous aspect of the law rarely used to convince a Jury to find you not guilty? Kevin is that kind of lawyer who keeps digging, keeps fighting and eventually beats the prosecution down in producing remarkable results for his clients."
