Posted by Yvette | October 31, 2017 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Great lawyer!!!

I hired Mr. Ducote bacause I received my 2nd DWI. He did an absolutely amazing job!! he was able to get me a plea deal...no jail time, no probation and no community service. THIS MAN WAS A LIFE SAVER! I would most definitely recommend him to anyone in need of a good attorney. Thank you Jeremy. ...

Posted by Sean | April 15, 2016 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Outstanding Lawyer

Jeremy has handled several cases for both myself and my son. In ever instance he has exceeded my expectation and delivery results above and beyond my expectations. In the most recent cases. a DWI was reduced to reckless driving, and multiple possessions charges dropped to a single possession charge ...with credit for time served. Amazing results. He explains things well and goes over his game plan. I highly recommend him, and will always go to LoveDucote law firm for all legal matters even if its just a referral for something out of their scope.

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.
