Traffic ticket

I don't know what to say ... I am overwhelmed with how incompetent Heritage Law is in handling a simple traffic infraction. They charge $325, and then do nothing to defend. The ticket has to be paid, goes on record, and reported to the insurance. They're not even competent enough to request the judge... to turn the ticket into a non-moving violation. I would have been better off in directly requesting a deferral, or I could have just paid the original ticket and saved the $325 that I paid to this incompetent, uncaring law office. The only reason that I hired these people is because I live out of state and even flying into Seattle, would still have to drive to the lower Kittitas court in Cle Elum. RUN AWAY. DO NOT HIRE THESE PEOPLE. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.

I apologize that we were no able to have your case dismissed. Kittitas County does not have the option for non-moving violations as many other courts do, which is why we provide this information in our current representation agreement. We always do our best to have a favorable outcome so that we can receive good reviews, we cannot win every case. Fee free to give us a call so that we can discuss your case in detail.

Joyce makes claims of absolute certainty of what to expect and is very often completely wrong. She does not instill confidence or even seem well prepared. The outcomes of my cases were not awful but I feel that had nothing to do with her skill or competence as a lawyer. As is typical of lawyers she w...as very active about messaging me to get payment but was a poor communicator otherwise. I would have chosen another attorney but she was unfortunately the only one available locally.

Unfortunately, I am not told who this comment is from. I would be happy to discuss this and would be interested in receiving additional feedback with specifics on how we can improve. It is difficult to determine what went wrong because this person does not disclose anything specific and even says that the result was not awful. Please contact my office. I would encourage any readers of this review to read the many other reviews posted herein and contact us with questions.

Ms. Heritage is the defender of justice

Ms. Heritage recently represented me in a DUI case and I cannot say enough good things about her. She is knowledgeable, professional, and a defender of justice. Ms. Heritage goes to the ropes for her clients and tackles each case in a unique and individual way. I had the opportunity to observe her... in court representing several other individuals while I was waiting for my case to be heard, and it was very clear she was well liked and respected by all she was representing that day. I cannot thank her enough for the successful and just outcome in my case.

Efficient Handling of Speeding Ticket in Eastern Washington

I was caught in a speed trap in Royal City on my way to Mom's Weekend at WSU...they must have ticketed hundreds of people that day. My speeding ticket was handled quickly and efficiently by the Heritage Law Group. They obviously know the letter of the law and they were able to have my ticket dismisse...d. Very thankful I made the choice to contest the ticket with them!
