Posted by Kenneth | March 22, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Got the job done for me, as he promised

I got snagged in a GA trooper speed trap. I live out of state and had no local representation. I contacted Horace K Sawyer III, and once he reviewed my ticket, he said he could help me. Told me not to worry, even though I was worried. He went to court on my behalf, and got me a minimum fine and l...imited reporting. He said he could help me, and he did. I recommend Horace!

Avoid Attorney Horace Kimbrell Sawyer III

We paid $800 for his “representation” and received absolutely nothing in return. No communication, no guidance, and he never even contacted our driver. He gave us the wrong court date, didn’t update us, and we had to call the court ourselves to find out what was happening. To make it worse, the ca...se was non-reportable, meaning the outcome would’ve been the SAME if the driver simply paid the ticket on day one. So we paid $800 for zero impact and zero work. This attorney took the money and did nothing. Completely unprofessional and not worth a single dollar. Do not hire.

This is your guy

Hired Attorney Sawyer for a traffic violation. He was quick, efficient, and extremely witty! Took care of everything. Couldn't have asked for better representation!

Not helpful

Worst lawyer experience ever he did nothing, wouldn’t even try to help. I’ve almost lost custody of my children because of his antics. Will never promote or support this business ever again.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
