Reckless Driving Charge / Warrant from 2001

I had an old citation from 2001 that I forgot about as I'm not from the state. Well last week it became an issue, as I had an active warrant for this. I found Roy Dominguez online and based on reviews, I called him Friday evening and left a message. He called me back Saturday morning and we went over... some details. I hired him Saturday evening. That Monday the warrant was recalled and by Thursday the case was settled with a very favorable outcome. He is a great communicator and provides needed documentation immediately. Highly recommended.

There's only one word to describe AMAZING

My daughter had 20 tickets over 7 years in two different counties and I think 5 different Police stations (I Think) She had so many issues it seemed impossible to get any progress. Roy calmed us down and patiently consolidated, had dropped, and actually paid one of her fines out his retainer. She bec...ame VALID today the first time in years. My daughter lost her Mom in accident and it really effected her behavior and Roy helped us along the way he was supportive and sensitive to our situation, warm, and confident. I recommend him highly, just AMAZING!

Having trouble finding a GOOD lawyer? Your look is OVER!

Mr. Dominguez is by far the best lawyer I have ever hired. He has many years of experience, yet is very up to date on current technology. He provided me with his personal cell number and email, so I could always keep in contact with him during my case. He always answered my calls for the most par...t, but even if he was busy at the moment, he always responded promptly. A few of my cases were a little outside of Lake or Porter County, but he still represented me and showed up to help on a release in nearby Starke County. I can not show my gratitude enough. Not only did I not go to jail for my offense, but after over 13 years of hardship license denial, he was the first lawyer to have an offer thrown in the plea agreement for myself to have the opportunity to acquire a hardship license after only a year of probation. My hat goes off to Mr. Dominguez and his endless efforts. I highly recommend Roy Dominguez to anyone who wants a quality lawyer at very reasonable prices. Thanks again Mr. Dominguez for all you have done. The Law Office of Rogelio Dominguez is the only way to go.

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.
