Speeding ticket reduced. No points on my license or Insurance !!!
Amanda handled my speeding case. I live in another NC county not Onslow. The Law firm she works with is Houser. Very Professional firm with lowest cost in Jacksonville. They kept in touch with me from beginning to end. Easy online and phone communication. She appeared before the court for me. My speeding ticket was reduced to a non moving violation. Amanda saved me from stress, driving 100 miles and being possibly convicted if I had appeared on my own behalf. Houser Law firm and Amanda settled my case for not much more than I would have had to pay the court system and the gasoline to get there. Also Saved me hundreds of dollars by not having to pay my Insurance Company for a speeding ticket. Speeding ticket reduced. No points on my license or Insurance points !!! Very grateful. Thank You

Phenomenal Attorney
At first I though I wouldn't have much trouble with my divorce, and I consulted with Mrs. Johnson to get the process started. However, it quickly turned south and Mrs. Johnson ended up representing me in court over false clams filed by my wife. I have never seen someone so dedicated and passionate in the court room. Mrs. Johnson really stood out amongst the other lawyers in the room. So much so that I was asked by others who I hired so they could hire her as well! Mrs. Johnson ended up getting the fraudulent protective order made by my wife denied, and I didn't even need to testify. I could not have picked a better Lawyer. Mrs. Johnson is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate about her work, and you will not regret hiring her.

Easy, painless representation from afar.
Got a speeding ticket while out of town and after getting "a few" solicitations for legal representation in the Jacksonville area, I settled on Houser law firm for a couple reasons. One was a recommendation from a local and the other was that when I went to contact Houser, everything was very simply explained online and handled in a prompt manner without me having to do anything additional. Very pleased with the ease of use and the outcome. Highly recommend.

Excellent service
My lawyer was able to turn something that seemed very grim into an acceptable outcome. Instead of going through a bunch of fees and fines or spending a long time not being able to drive i got an acceptable out come of reduced charges lower fine and a driver class. Im very glad they were able to represent me on this matter their expertise helped save me from losing my lively hood.

DIVORCE FILING WAS A BREEZE!!
I have been putting off filing for divorce, for almost six years because of the hassle I thought I might incur. Searching on internet for "easy divorce filing", and came across the Houser Law Firm. These people, form their administrative folks, to their paralegals, and of course, their attorneys, made everything easy, efficient and fast. Totally and completely satisfied with the work they put into my case. Would HIGHLY recommend them!!!

Thrilled!
I strongly endorse the Houser Law Firm. I used this legal firm for a legal matter in North Carolina, and I found the initial process and legal fee a bargain considering the cost for me to travel and deal with it. The staff was effective, prompt on all communication and efficient. I give them 5 stars. and recommend them if you require services in the NC area.
