super easy process!

Shannon was a tremendous help when my son got his first speeding ticket. She was able to handle everything over the phone and online since we didn't live in the town of the offense. Everything was pretty much taken care of in one phone call and she was able to get it reduced to improper equipment w...ith no adverse effects to our insurance or his license. Would highly recommend her if you find yourself in the same predicament.

Professional service

Ms. Aldous served as attorney for my son's traffic citation. Her legal services were as promised and at a reasonable cost. I would certainly hire her again.

Worst attorney ever....

Beware when using this attorney I paid a lot of money and took a defensive driving class at my expense only to still get 3 points on my drivers license which is the same outcome I would have gotten had I just paid the ticket...I was granted a pjc that the dmv will not allow me to have bc I apparently... had one before that the lawyer didn’t look up. At any rate don’t waste your money. I had just had a baby when I went and took this 4 hour class for absolutely no reason at all on top of attorney fees for the same out come as paying the ticket.

10/10 Recommend

Attorney Shannon Aldous is transparent, diligent, devoted, and will fight for her clients. She is honest about whatever charges you are facing and is knowledgeable on how to get you the best outcome. I received a serious traffic citation. Speeding 91 in a 65. All other attorneys I spoke with ens...ured me I would receive many points on my license and would in no way be able to use my PJC. Attorney Aldous went over the best and worse case scenarios with me and was honest about the possible outcomes. In the end she was able to address my case to where I could in fact use my PJC - receiving no license points, ticket fees, etc. She was professional and prepared in the court room, arrived early, and efficiently handled my case. Whether a serious traffic citation like mine or a more serious charge, I would recommend Attorney Shannon Aldous to any individual in Lincoln County, NC - 10/10. Excellent rates and exceptional service.
