Easy process

It was an easy process contacting Mr. Cotten's office about my traffic violation, I've been explained everything I needed to know and the case was closed in my favor. Thanks

Posted by Julie | April 11, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Jeremy was awesome.

His firm was extremely quick to respond, easy to deal with, and very reasonably priced. I got a speeding ticket, and Jeremy gave me (2) different options on how we could take care of it. He explained everything clearly, and I didn't have to hunt him down to follow-up on the outcome of the ticket. I r...eceived a e-mail from him confirming the positive outcome (dropped to IE) of my case the same day as the hearing. I hope I never need to hire him again, but in the event that I do, I wouldn't hesitate to contact his firm.

Speeding charge reduced

My charge was speeding 40 in a 25. I received a phone call from one of Mr. Cotten's associates. She explained ahead of time what could be done . Mr. Cotten was able to reduce the charge to 34 in a 25 for a very small fee. I received an email promptly from Mr. Cotten informing me of the outcome of my ...case which made me happy. I did not have to appear in court. I will definately choose Jeremy Cotten again for legal matters.

Great Experience using Cotten Law Firm

I contacted Cotten Law after receiving a speeding ticket and got an immediate response from the office. The woman I spoke with on the phone was SO nice and explained everything to me, I am young and was not sure how to proceed and what to do next with my ticket, but speaking with her clarified my nex...t steps and the options I had. My case was handled efficiently and I got the results I wanted. Mr. Cotten was very communicative with me over email, something I greatly appreciated, and kept me up to date on the status of things. He truly seemed interested and wanting to help. I've worked with a different lawyer before, and I did not receive the same level of commitment and consideration Mr. Cotten gave. I would definitely recommend him.

for speeding ticket

Getting a speeding ticket is, big surprise here, always a most unpleasant event for me because typically I drive nice and easy until … I’m late (according to someone else’s schedule) lose my head, see the blue lights in the mirror and I’m upset for weeks – all the way until the ticket is over and don...e with. This time was no different. Rushing on my up to see my wife at Sanford Health & Rehab, got nailed near Buffalo Lake Road. Mr. Cottom and his office dealt with this very unpleasant situation very easily, professionally. Paid him $305 (when I didn’t have $305 to pay) , emailed the forms back and it was all done on my end. Mr. Cottom’s simple professionalism was most evident in that he COMMUNICATED!! Last time I was down this road – with another lawyer – I had to email them – then wait a day or two to know for sure that their lawyer did, in fact, go to court for me as agreed. I recommend Mr. Cottom for anyone requiring representation in any of his areas of expertise.
