Excellent in every way

Lars is simply the best. The entire process is seamless and straightforward. I also highly recommend that if it applies to your or your dependents situation, you take advantage of his NCDRIVESAFE course.

Wonderful, responsive and clearly able to get the job done

I've used Mr. Kissling on more than one occasion and each time, I get more value than he charges. I can't thank him enough for helping me deal with the consequences of my lead foot in a way that didn't make me feel like a criminal. There is no way I could have gotten the results he did. Money well sp...ent.

Speeding

I live in FL and was driving to CT with my cousin and 12 year old son due to a family members passing. I had also just picked up a mother and her two young children who missed her bus connection to New York. I figured she seemed harmless and I was passing through New York anyway. Plus, I hold a speci...al place in my heart for kids. Anywho, got caught speeding, stated I was 20 miles over the speed limit and there was no ticket except a citation. I was more upset I would have to make an appearance to court in NC than anything with the cost of hotel, gas, time from work, etc. Got home I received all these letters from lawyer offices about my ticket (I think it's a set up). Anyway, I chose Attorney Kissling. They removed failure to secure passenger under 16 and my speeding ticket reduced to improper equipment which carries no points. If I know of someone in NC who needs a lawyer for speeding, etc. I will definitely recommend Attorney Kissling. Thank you so much for all of your help.

More than pleased!

Kissling did a fantastic job and exceeded the outcome I expected! Managed to get my 4th speeding ticket within a year completly dismissed. His service was fast, curtious and professional. Extremely pleased!

Excellent Service

We received excellent service in the resolution of our son's speeding violation. The entire process was explained to us in complete detail of what to expect and fees involved for the service. They were able to get the charges reduced to reckless driving and his record was cleared. Everyone we spok...e with were friendly and very knowledge. I would highly recommend their services to anyone.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2006.

Reprimand issued in NC, 2006

updated on 06/19/2014

Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Lawrence’s comment:

“This was for failure to comply with the requirements for direct mail advertisement. It had nothing to do with completing cases or dealing with clients.”
