BEST ATTORNEY

Mr Kennedy went to the Chattam County Courthouse on my behalf on 3/10/2022. He did a great job on my behalf and I will be forever grateful. The reduction in speed he negotiated on my behalf saved me a significant increase in auto insurance. Thank you Mr. Kennedy!

Highly Recommend Mr. Kennedy

Mr. Kennedy was very helpful in advising of the process for handling an excessive speeding ticket. He handled court on my behalf and followed up with great results. Most importantly (to me) the office has been very patient with my inability to pay all fees at once. They have not complained once about... my weekly partial payments. Overall price was is best around

YES!

Mr. Kennedy appeared in court on my behalf in Chatham County. He was able to have my speeding ticket significantly reduced and was also successful in having the Careless and Reckless Driving charge dismissed. I highly recommend Mr. Kennedy's services.

excellent traffic court lawyer

Very easy to hire, competitive rates, happy to speak on the phone for free and explain my options. And of course, most importantly, a good result, getting the charge reduced to an 'improper equipment' without any insurance points.

VERY DISAPPOINTED

We used this attorney for my step son who had received a speeding ticket and was involved in a mva that was his fault. He paid fines, took safety class and I was advised that there would be no insurance or license points. Unfortunately we had both and I didn't find out until we were up for auto insu...rance renewal and our insurance doubled in the monthly payment. I contacted his office several times after this and didn't receive any response. Which surprised me because before they were very diligent in speaking with me and guiding me through the process. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!!

Traffic tickets resulting from a motor vehicle accidents are usually resolved with a complete dismissal of the violation providing there are no aggravating circumstances. A dismissal of the case results in no points being assessed against either the DMV record or the insurance. However, the insurance company may assess you points as the result of the driver of the other vehicle making a claim against your insurance policy. This depends on the specific terms of your policy. This is a separate issue from the traffic violation that in this case was dismissed completely in court. Unfortunately, this is a common misunderstanding in cases of this nature. We do try to inform our clients of this possibility during our consultations and we are always available to answer any questions afterwards.
