Grant Riva handled my neg 2 driving infraction just as he said he would during my consultation. Very dependable. He was able to have my case dismissed. 5 stars

speeding ticket to non-moving violation

I had Grant help me with a speeding ticket that could have left me with a suspended license. After a couple months he got back to me saying he had it moved to a non-moving violation and it won’t be on my record!!! i had a few doubts throughout the process, but sure enough he came through and did what... i thought would be impossible. i definitely recommend Grant!!

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.
