Julia Simmons - DMV Hearing

Prior to speaking with Julia Simmons, I had spoken with several other attorneys regarding a DMV hearing to reinstate my driving privilege. My driving record with the DMV is 8 pages long, and I was losing hope. After my first conversation with Ms. Simmons, It became clear that she was the attorney I w...anted to represent me. She made no promises, but felt confident that she would bring this to a successful resolution. She assured me that upon the agreed fee, she would handle my case to the end, even if that meant numerous appeals. She was professional, organized, and competent with the DMV process, from start to finish. She laid out a 3 stage strategy and stuck to it. When the DMV Hearing came, everything went exactly as Ms. Simmons had explained to me. There were no surprises. In fact, I didn’t even have to attend the hearing, as it was done over the telephone. I am pleased to announce that my driving privilege was reinstated that very day! I strongly recommend Julia Simmons to anyone who is in a similar situation, and wants to have the matter successfully resolved.

Absolutely reliable, knowledgeable and eager to HELP YOU, NOT TAKE YOUR MONEY

It is important that you know that before speaking with Julia Simmons, I had consulted with 3 lawyers. Two, simply wanted to take my money (and would have also create a problem for me because I was not charged with any crime) and one that did not handle my type of case but I asked him if he could mak...e a referral and he gave me Julia Simmon's phone number and I am so thankful he did. I called on a Thursday night and I was pleasantly surprised when the call went through. The call was lengthy and she asked all facts regarding my situation and answered all my questions with honesty and also provided me with a wealth of information that was beneficial. I could tell right away that not only was she being honest but she also wanted to give me peace of mind because she could tell I was nervous and of course scared. I was shocked once again that our conversation revolved around whether I needed to hire a lawyer or not, not once did she discussed fees or taking action simply so I can hire her (the other two lawyers did). She thoroughly explained my situation to me and stated I did not need a lawyer at this time but I pressed to meet with her in person because I wanted to ask her more questions. I asked her what her fee was for a consultation and she said it was free. She met me two days later on Saturday morning at 9am. In person, she was personable, franc, easy to talk to and above all patient. Her advice has proven true and as of now I do not to hire a lawyer but God forbid I may need one, I have her on speed dial and without hesitation I know I will have a good lawyer on my side. Lastly, in our first conversation I truly felt she just wanted to help and I thanked her a bunch of times for her honest helpful advice, for not wanting to take my money and for seeing me in person after already speaking with her. In round about way I asked her why she was like that and she said, "listen, it's called Karma, you just gotta be honest and help people because everything comes back around, if you do good, it will come back to you and if you don't do good it will also come back to you." I agree. If you need a DUI or related cases attorney, you 100% will be in good care.

NOT JUST PROFESSIONAL, BUT PERSONAL

First DUI I have ever had. First time I had ever faced legal matters. Started out terrified, having anxiety attacks constantly. Attorney Simmons gave me her personal cell, encouraging me to call her with questions and concerns. Not only does she know the law, like the back of her hand, she also knew ...how to speak to me in a personal way, allowing me to rest while she did all the work. She was so personable! I felt like I could call her for advice about anything. I could have went with a public defender, but the outcome may not of been the same. Plus, Attorney Julia cares about her clients and how they are handling the situation. I would not have made it through the entire process without her. I am so grateful to God for bringing her and her staff to me in one of most horrific events I had to experience.
