Posted by Very Satisifed Customer | September 23, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Great Choice! Highly Recommend!

Our son received a speeding ticket while away at college in NC. We were inundated with letters from attorney offices offering their services. My husband spoke to several on the phone and we chose Lawrence Kissling. It was the best decision we made. Mr. Kissling was professional, very efficient and... communicated our case status via email. His office was readily available for questions and responded in a timely manner. They were always pleasant. His prices were reasonable and all inclusive. No hidden charges. He told us up front the possible outcomes. Our son did have to attend a driving class. Mr Kissling worked diligently to get us the most favorable outcome possible - a reduction in the speeding charge and a Prayer for Judgment Continued allowed by court. That meant that while our son was guilty of speeding the court does not enter the conviction. This spares the defendant of paying fines and from receiving driver's license points and insurance points. A more favorable outcome than we had hoped for. Very grateful for the work Mr. Kissling did on our behalf. Highly recommend!

Exceptional Service

Mr. Kissling recently handled my speeding ticket in court. The ticket was reduced to improper equipment. The whole experience with Mr. Kissling and his office staff was very convenient and seamless. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who may need his services.

Good

I hate lawyers and tend to think they our overpaid worthless pieces of crap manipulating our financial system through the law. However hiring Mr. Kissing to handle my traffic matter for me because I was out of town was a great decision. He communicates effectively by email and he charged a reasonable... price without giving up quality service.

Rating:  7.0 (Very Good)

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.”
