Greatest traffic ticket Lawyer

I cannot thank Kelly McMahan Law's firm enough for support and assistance with my traffic violation ticket's dismissal. Especially Melissa Brimer and Su Garcia were on top of my case's situation giving me friendly updates and easy honest explanation. They helped me to stay positive during handling my... problem in professional and respectful way. I would highly recommend their service. Thanks a lot!

CDL CASE HANDLED PERFECTLY

This firm represented a CDL driver. From the first call to the end, everyone was super helpful and friendly. This isn’t a case where they take your money and don’t do anything. They were transparent with everything and managed to get the case DISMISSED! I was super concerned because it was a very iff...y situation that clearly could have gone the other way. I got the great news via email and phone call and was ecstatic with the outcome. I can’t recommend this law firm enough. Thank you for taking this weight off our shoulders

One Amazing Lawyer

I'm a truck driver and I've used Kelly McMahan Law 3 times over the past 10 years for speeding violations in a commercial truck. She is always on point, looks out for her clients and her performance outweighs the cost by miles. She has always had a positive outlook and came through for me. I'll never... go anywhere else.

Excellent Work

I had a speeding ticket on my CDL and they got it dismissed completely. They were very informative throughout the process and kept me updated. Thanks

Traffic ticket dismissal

The team is very professional. My speeding ticket in a construction zone was dismissed. You just have to be patient and let them handle it. Thank you so much!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I heartily endorse this lawyer. I am a criminal lawyer in Massachusetts. I had a client who could not renew his Massachusetts drivers license because the State of Texas was claiming that he had numerous violations in Texas. My client had never been in Texas. Dealing with the Texas DMV and the local sheriff in Austin became very difficult. I referred the case to Attorney McMahan. She had all the right contacts in the Texas DMV and in the Sheriff's Office. Within a few days she got the entire mess untangled and got the Texas Sheriff to issue a "not me" letter. That is a letter that the client was able to take to the DMV in Massachusetts and get his license renewed. Kelly is a bright, fast working lawyer who knows the people at the Texas DMV."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Ms. McMahan does an excellent job representing her clients in the Austin Municipal Court. As a former prosecutor, I always felt that Ms. McMahan worked diligently on behalf of her clients. Many attorneys do not put in substantial effort when representing clients for class-C misdemeanors. However, Ms. McMahan always goes the extra mile to ensure that her clients get the best resolution possible."

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.
