Speeding Ticket
Excellent representation. I paid the very reasonable fee and did not have to appear in court. My 87 in a 70 was reduced down to an improper equipment and that was the end of it.

Replied last January 16, 2019Please check that email; that is not what was said at all. I do understand your frustration however as receiving that notice is surely unsettling. I hope you can appreciate the immediate response you received late in the evening and well outside of business hours as well the favorable outcome you received. I still am unsure as to how this happened in the Clerk's office but, once I discovered this issue I immediately rectified the problem and paid all the additional costs out of my own pocket; I literally had to pay out of pocket to favorably resolve your case. Please see the receipt I sent to you showing that the problem has indeed been rectified as well as my comments in the email for further explanation. If you have any further questions please give me a call anytime.
