Pleased to have found a good attorney

Mr. Reed had the skills and good relationship with the state to achieve the goal we were seeking. Although my case was a minor traffic case, he was very thorough and took the time to explain the process.

Thank you Mr. Reed

Just wanted to put a great review for Mr. Reed and his assistant Miss Moore. They were very professional and cleared me of all charges against me for driving on a suspended license and expired tag. I was involved in an accident, but was not at fault. When the police arrived, I was inf...ormed that I was driving on a suspended license, so I called Mr. Reed. ( which was close to midnight) Luckily they did not arrest me, but did give me a ticket for the suspended license. Also the company car I was driving had an expired tag and I was ticketed for that as well. Had to call a coworker to drive my car away for me. Bad day. Now comes the good part. Mr. Reed later accompanied me to court and met with the prosecutor before trial started. He was able to clear me of all charges. No court fees and both tickets were dismissed. We were the one of the first ones called before the judge and the first ones to leave. He was a true professional and veteran of the law. Hope I never have to call a lawyer again, but if I do. Mr. Reed and his firm will be my choice. Also, his rate was very reasonable. Thank you again.

Best attorney ever!! Very kind and caring!!!!

Mr. Reed was very excellent in handling my case, and he has AMAZING fees for his services!! I HIGHLY recommend him to ANYONE!!! His firm replies to e-mails and phone calls in a very good timely manner! He helped get my speeding ticket out of the Super Speeder limits, and therefore, a lower fine... in the process!!!! God Bless Mr. Reed I and my dad are forever thankful for your services and you representing me!!!!

Great Customer Service-Excellent Outcome -

My husband and I were desperate to hire an attorney to represent him with traffic tickets-two driving on suspended tickets. Received mailer from this law firm and called Mr. Reed on a Sunday for a Weds court date. My husband explained to Mr. Reed that he did not have a valid license and was afraid th...at he was facing a felony and potentially prison time. Mr. Reed and my husband agreed on a very decent fee agreement and I brought it to his office in Canton the next day and met Amber his paralegal who was so professional. Needless to say we needed Mr. Reed's office to obtain a few continuances to give us time for my husband to get a valid license. Mr. Reed was able to get both of the DWSL tickets handled - one was dismissed and the other was reduced to driving w/o license on person. The judge and solicitor wanted me to serve 10 days in jail and Mr. Reed was able to get the charges reduced, minimal speeding fine, minimal court costs and I walked out of probate court. Excellent outcome!

Thank you so much!

Mr Reed and Ms Marsh are amazing!! I never thought a simple traffic ticket could turn into something so big. I was facing almost 8 months worth of jail time for a traffic violation and probation violation. but with the Reed team on my side I walked into court expecting the worst and came out with the... best possible solution. Payed a minor fine and they even terminated the remainder of my probation!! Thank you so much!!!
