PHENONEMAL LAWYER-PHENOMENAL SERVICE

AN HONEST ATTORNEY....SOUNDS LIKE AN OXYMORON, HUH? WELL, IN THIS INSTANCE, IT IS ACTUAL, AND FACTUAL. I RESIDE IN COLUMBIA, MO, AND WAS TRAVELING DEC 15, 2017 TO KANSAS CITY FOR WORK WHEN I WAS TARGETED BY AN OFFICER WHO GAVE ME A TICKET FOR 22 MILES OVER THE SPEED LIMIT. THE ISSUE IS I WAS NOT SPEE...DING. I WAS PULLED OVER 35MINS PRIOR AND GIVEN THE SAME SPEEDING TICKET BY AN OFFICER WHO WAS OBVIOUSLY HIS BUDDY. MY ANXIETY WENT THROUGH THE ROOF, AS I WAS FACED WITH NOT ONE, BUT TWO SPEEDING TICKETS ALLEGING THAT I WAS GOING OVER 20 MILES THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT. I REACHED OUT TO COUNTLESS, YES, COUNTLESS LAWYERS IN THE KC AREA. ALL OF WHICH ATTEMPTED TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK OFF OF ME, BUT COULD ONLY OFFER ME A SIS, AND DRIVING IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM. WHEN I REFUSED THEIR OFFER, AND INSISTED THEY FIGHT TO HAVE THE TICKET AMENDED TO A NON-MOVING VIOLATION, THEY MADE SLY REMARKS LIKE "GOOD LUCK ", "KC MUNICIPAL COURT DOES NOT DO THAT", "NO ONE CAN GET YOU THAT DEAL", AND ONE OF THE LAWYERS EVEN ASKED ME WHAT RACE I WAS. I FELT DISCOURAGED, BUT NOT DEFEATED. I GAVE IT THE OL' LAST DITCH EFFORT, AND REACHED OUT TO THE LAW OFFICES OF MS. TRACI FANN. SHE NEVER SHOT DOWN WHAT I WANTED AS A PAYING CONSUMER, SHE NEVER ASKED ME WHAT RACE I WAS, SHE NEVER MOCKED ME, LAUGHED AT ME, OR DISMISSED ME. WHAT SHE DID WAS LISTEN ATTENTIVELY TO MY NEEDS, AND WANTS, AND SHE DID FOR ME WHAT NO OTHER LAW OFFICE IN KANSAS CITY WAS ABLE OR WILLING TO DO. SHE ASSURED ME SHE COULD GET ME EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED. TRACI FOLLOWS THROUGH...TRACI IS HONEST...TRACI IS DOWN TO EARTH...TRACI LISTENS TO HER CLIENTS...TRACI IS CONSISTENT...TRACI IS HANDS DOWN THE NUMBER ONE LAWYER TO RETAIN IF YOU HAVE ANY TRAFFIC OR CRIMINAL MATTER THAT NEEDS HONEST AND CONSISTENT RESOLUTION. WHAT IS EVEN GREATER IS THAT I NEVER EVEN MET HER IN PERSON...SHE TOOK CARE OF MY CASE VIA PHONE, AND EMAIL SINCE I AM OVER 2 HRS FROM HER OFFICE. I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT HER, BUT I WROTE THIS REVIEW, BECAUSE MY HEART IS, AND FOREVER WILL BE GRATEFUL TO THE TRACI FANN LAW OFFICES, AND THE HONEST SERVICE SHE PROVIDED TO ME. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR PRACTICE MS. TRACI FANN. REGARDS, TL WHITE

She kept her word

Traci was great! I live out of state now and she took care of everything in KC for me. I wasn't stressed at all because she made me feel comfortable that everything was going to happen accordingly and it did.

You won't be disappointed with Traci Fann

Traci Fann has been my traffic ticket attorney for several years now! You won’t find a more honest attorney! She is professional and best of all affordable.

Outstanding Defense Attorney

Following a very difficult traffic stop and being issued a summons for multiple violations, I was represented by Ms. Fann which resulted in a complete dismissal of all charges. I had the best legal representationn I could possibly have wanted. I found Ms. Fann to be reliable, professional and strai...ght forward.

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.
