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.

Never disappoints

This is unfortunately the second time I have had to use their services--but SO glad I have found them! They were able to again get my ticket (this time for unsafe lane change) dismissed and handled my calls and the case very professionally. Highly recommend!!

Honest and professional

I hired this attorney for a speeding ticket in Raleigh. Although the case was dismissed because of extenuating circumstances, Mr Kissling and staff were professional and honest in my dealings with them and they promptly answered my inquiries and kept me updated throughout. I feel that I received good... value and I would rehire this attorney. The service was convenient and I was able to take care of business online and via phone.

Highered from a far!!!

I highly recommend Lawrence Kissling and his services!! I have used Mr. Kissling's services twice and I do not even live in the state of North Carolina year round. I picked him based upon his reviews when I was searching for a lawyer. My first charge was a year ago and it was a license & speedin...g violation. The second time I used Mr. Kissling services I received a speeding ticket. The end result each time worked in my favor. He was able to get the first fine reduced with not points or extra charges. The second speeding ticket he got reduced to a lower charge which carried a lesser fine and no points. I also like that I was able to speak with Mr. Kissling directly about any questions or concerns I may have had throughout my process. This especially helped ease me because I was not able to stand in front of the judge myself because I live in Maryland for part of the year. He is very friendly and thorough. He is also quick. My court date was scheduled for 05/27 and he had matters resolved for me as early as 04/12. Brandy

Excellent work!

I've had to contact Mr. Kissling twice for 2 separate speeding incidences, and both were resolved without loss of license, jail time, nor insurance increases. His assistant Matt helped me on one. Both times were easy processes, just pay the fee and Mr. Kissling took care of the rest. Communication w...as excellent, and no court appearances were necessary on my behalf. Do not hesitate to contact his office for any traffic matters!

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.”
