Hire him, it works!

I hired Brad Icard to represent me in court for a traffic violation. I did not even have to go to court and he resolved the citation for me. I recommend him 100%! Amazing!

Posted by Ashley | November 21, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Great outcome!

My teenage daughter recently received a speeding ticket and along with it a reckless driving charge because of the excessive speed - although she was stopped in a road where the speed quickly drops from 45mph to 25mph as you come around a curve. Nonetheless she was speeding and if it was only the sp...eeding ticket, I had seriously considered making her go to the court date. However, after consulting with a few police officer friends, I became more concerned because of the reckless driving charge. After reading through the stack of letters received from attorneys I found Brad’s letter and recognized his name. He had actually represented me many years ago for a minor traffic violation and did a great job with that one (it was dismissed). Based on that and my consultation call, I hired him for my daughter’s tickets and once again, thrilled with the outcome! Brad could not have done a better job! We received the best possible results! Would highly recommend, Brad!!

Great attorney, great results

I first hired Brad almost 20 years ago and have been relying on his services ever since. When it comes to speeding, following too close or any other traffic violation, Brad is the man. During last three years, Brad had two followings to o close and one stop sign violation dismissed. Couldn't ask for ...better results!

Highly Recommended

Brad and his team helped secure a great outcome again. I used Brad over 10 years ago for myself and then recently my teenage son was involved in a very minor traffic accident wherein he, of course, received a ticket. Brad was able to have this dismissed. Very good communication from his office dur...ing the process as well. Highly recommended.

"Mr. Icard is one of the best criminal traffic lawyers in and around Charlotte Mecklenburg, N.C. When other lawyers may plead to a lesser charge, Mr. Icard will often times have the case dismissed outright. He is very sharp and knows the system well. I recommend him 100% of the time. He is an awesome lawyer, and he communicates well with his clients. He will often pull off amazing results, which sets him apart from the majority of lawyers doing criminal traffic cases. Definitely contact him if you have a traffic matter."
