Severe Citation DISMISSED

Bigger and Harman helped me tremendously with a severe traffic citation. Their specialists along with Attorney Mark Bigger were very responsive and very informative during the process. My citation was ultimately dismissed thanks to Bigger and Harman's expertise. I would recommend this office to anyon...e in California dealing with allegations of any traffic violations.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

If you are not sure... Look no further you will not be disapointed.

Where do I even begin? I’m not one to write reviews—unless something truly stands out and could make a difference in someone else’s experience. This is most definitely one of those moments. I was cited on the I-5 in California for allegedly going 101 mph. My interaction with the CHP officer was...… let’s just say, unnerving. I knew I wasn’t guilty of that speed, but it was clear the officer had already made up his mind. Had he been able to haul me off to jail right then and there, I believe he would have. This wasn’t just a ticket—it was a freight train of consequences barreling toward my life. I began searching for counsel, unsure where to turn. I’ve had enough legal dealings over the years to carry my fair share of skepticism. Trust doesn’t come easily when past experiences have left a bad taste. But I took a leap of faith and hired Mark Bigger. And that decision changed everything. From the first call, his office ran like a well-oiled machine. Communication was clear, consistent, and professional—every “T” crossed, every “I” dotted. I was kept in the loop at every stage, never left wondering or guessing. Mark carefully reviewed the facts, built a solid case, and ultimately won. Ticket dismissed. Now, I don’t think stories like mine are all that common… but I believe the outcome I received is common for them. Because what I witnessed was excellence in motion. They are incredibly skilled, deeply committed, and—just as rare these days—they actually care. After running two businesses for nearly five decades, I’ve dealt with more legal professionals than I can count. Let me be blunt: this was the single best legal experience I have ever had. If you’re even remotely considering representation for a traffic-related issue, don’t hesitate. Mark Bigger and his team are in a class of their own—top-shelf in service, value, and expertise. Mark, to you and your entire staff: thank you. You delivered justice in a time when it’s all too rare. I’ll be forever grateful—and I’ll be sending anyone I know your way. With all my respect, Greg Marchand
