    Review Glenn Mccandliss

    Very happy

    Posted by

    Mr. Mccandliss and his office were a pleasure to work with. It only required an email or phone call from me here and there, and then they handled everything else directly on my behalf. I'm very happy with the result! If I'm ever in the unfortunate situation to need a traffic ticket attorney again, I would most definitely use him again. Good work!

    Speeding Ticket

    Posted by

    This was my first time having to contact a Law Firm to represent me in court. McCandliss made the process very simple and easy to understand. I was able to contact anytime and all my questions were answered. I will be reaching out to them again in the future (hopefully I don’t need to) and referring friends and family as well.

    Mccandliss took time to talk to me before taking my case and eased concerns I had over using an attorney to fight a ticket. He kept me updated when I needed to be and my ticket was handled before I knew it.

    Glenn and Lisa (Assistant) were a joy a to work with. Glenn helped ensure that I was well represented. To put it quite simply, Glenn was straightforward and got the results I was hoping for. I would highly recommend him if you want a competent lawyer to defend you.

    I finally found myself a lawyer!!!!!

    Posted by

    I hired Glenn for a 6 point driving ticket I was facing. I was scared to death bcus I have a few drunk drivings and a bunch of driving on suspendeds. I haven't had a licience in over 10 years. I finally got to a restricted a year ago then got this 6 point ticket. I have a breathilizer in my car now and this ticket would have ruined my driving priveladges. I went to a pre trial without a attorney and the prosecutor wanted to hang me. I was pretty much screwed until I found mr. Glenn Mccandliss online. Glenn told me when we first spoke to stay positive, but I was terrified because I have to have a licience for work and I'm a single parent. I hired Glenn because he gave me a price I could afford. When Mr. Mccandliss and I went to court and he showed me how a attorney should represent their clients. He got my ticket reduced so much with no points to where now I can get my full licience back. I have never wrote a review before in my life on an attorney but I owe this to Glenn for all he has done for me and my family by getting this tickets reduced. I ended up pleading guilty to some else was driving and not me lol. Who ever knew there was such a thing? Thank you, thank you, thank you, for saving me and my family with this matter in Livonia courts. If I could have givin you a million stars I would have!!!! I will always call Mr. Glenn Mccandliss first in any matter I deal with involving the courts before any other attorney. Thank you Also Lisa for keeping me informed on everything going on with my case. I FINALLY FOUND MYSELF A ATTORNEY that I have confidence in. Thank you,thank you,thank you both again for all you guys have done for me and my kids!!!

    Great Attorney! Reduced Speeding Tickets to Non-Moving Violation

    Posted by

    I hired Mr. Mccandliss for a speeding ticket I received on a city street in St. Clair Shores. He was able to reduce it to double parking, which does not appear on my driving record! Finished in about 20 minutes, including the time for me to pay the ticket. One thing I learned from this experience is that you should appear in court regardless if you hire an attorney. Not a requirement, but a noted recommendation.

    Down to Earth and Top Notch

    Posted by

    Charged with a ‘fail-to-yield,’ Glenn reduced it to ‘impeding traffic’ (no points!). I didn’t even need to appear. He and his assistant Lisa were top-notch in their communications throughout and, importantly to me, not slick. Very friendly and down to earth good people. I’ll be recommending Mccandliss to everyone I know.
