Posted by anonymous | January 26, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Great job!

Melisa was quick to respond to my inquiry of help in getting a speeding ticket amended to a non-moving violation. She was the most affordable of the 3 firms I inquired with, so I hired her. Everything was done through email and she successfully had my ticket amended. Thanks Melisa!

Easy to work with!

I was referred to Melisa by a friend of mine who's an attorney in KS. I had a speeding violation that I needed to have taken care of, and with a few short conversations, Melisa was very pro-active & kept me updated throughout the process. Super easy to work with, and very cost effective compared t...o other options I explored!

I recommend her!

She helped me with a traffic ticket (I am from out of state). She was trustworthy and honest, and handled the case to my satisfaction and above. I highly recommend her.

Very responsive and professional!

I hired Ms. Ludeman based on a referral from another attorney in a different state. She did exactly what she promised to do and charged a very fair fee. I received a speeding ticket on my way to the airport and Ms. Ludeman was able to negotiate a non-moving violation charge with the prosecutor. I ...provided basic details to Ms. Ludeman and she took it from there - handling all appearances and paperwork. Excellent, efficient, and professional work.

Ludeman Law was fast, easy and effective in addressing my excessive speeding ticket

Melisa took my information and addressed my traffic violation quickly with a very minimal amount of communication at a reasonable price.

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.
