GREAT HELP WITH SPEEDING TICKET

Andrew and his assistant were very effective in keeping me from receiving points for a speeding ticket (84 in a 70) on Interstate 75 in Florida. He took care of everything. I did have to pay a fine, but he informed me prior to my court hearing, which he attended for me, that this would probably happe...n. My concern was more with the points on my driving record, and he had a money back guarantee that if he could not get the points removed, he would refund my monies.

Traffic Ticket Resolution

Attorney Andrew Joseph Decker IV successfully resolved my traffic ticket so that I would not incur any points on my license and I was found not guilty of the traffic infraction. The office personnel stayed in contact with me informing me of the process and next steps. Attorney Decker handled ev...erything for me and I did not have to appear in court. Thank you for your assistance and the positive result!

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.
