Handled My Ticket Quickly and Exactly as Promised

This was my first time hiring a lawyer for a traffic ticket and Martin Taylor made the whole process easy. He was the first attorney I called and answered the phone himself while he was at the courthouse, which immediately gave me confidence that he actually shows up for his clients. He was very r...esponsive, straightforward, and honest about what could realistically be done with my case. I appreciated being able to speak directly with the attorney instead of going through assistants like with other firms. I dropped off my paperwork in person and he was great to deal with. The ticket was handled quickly and the outcome was exactly what he said it would be. I would definitely recommend him to anyone dealing with a traffic violation.

Speeding tickets

I contacted Mr. Taylor for traffic citations and after reviewing my case and determining he could help me we agreed on a strategy. I completed Community Service at Meals on Wheels in Gastonia and Mr. Taylor came through as he promised. The community service allowed me to do good in the community and ...help with no additional penalties. He was a pleasure to work with and communicate with. I recommend him whole heartedly. His attitude is great and his prices are fair and brought results. Thank you Sir

Speeding Ticket

Traveling through N.C on my way home from school I was charged with speeding in the Gastonia area. I had no idea about how to handle this matter so I went to my computer and searched for Lawyers. When the list came up I just happened to pick L. Martin Taylor and called him and told him of my ticket f...or speeding in Gaston County and asked how I needed to handle it. Mr. Taylor took his time and over the phone explained all the options and cost I had and what was required of me never knowing if he would hear from me again. After meeting the requirements on my end I called him again and he told me what to send him. With- in 10 days I received a letter from Mr. Taylor informing me that the matter had been handled to my satisfacition. Mr. Taylor changed what was a stressful situation for me into something I could manage. Thank you Mr. Taylor.

Excellent Service

When I called, he answered the phone (no secretary). I never felt rushed or pushed to decide, he answered all my questions until I felt that I knew enough to make an educated decision for myself. He handled my case before the case date and kept me up to date on the whole process.
