Warrant Issued

I paid Miss Reece to take on my case, not only has she avoided all contact with me, she never attended court on my behalf after receiving payments and now her number is disconnected and I have a warrant!

Posted by Melissa | June 14, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Fast, reliable, made the difference

Lindsay took my case on short notice. She clearly explained the process and options. She worked the case in court--we were in and out, did not have to stand in front of the judge. Reduced fine and points removed. Best use of $ in a long time.

She cares

You can feel that she sincerely cares and is not at all robotic and she listens intently.

Absolutely Awesome

Got my following to close down from a misdemeanor to basic rules, no points, and a small fine! Worth every penny..and probably more!

Great Experience

Lindsay turned my stressful DUI case into a manageable situation with the piece of mind that I had someone fighting for me on my side. Lindsay is very knowledgeable with the court system as well local prosecutors and judges. Lindsay is very diligent with her work and offered great communication so ...I always knew what was going on and she was always available if I had questions. I highly recommend her.

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.
