My travel nightmare

While travelling from NJ to FL, I had an accident in Henrico county Virginia. I was issued a summons by Virginia State Police to appear in traffic court. Not being from Virginia, I was not familiar with any lawyer jn VA. I got lucky when I received a letter from attorney R. Christian Malott offeri...ng to represent me at my court appearance. I contacted Christian and agreed to have him represent me in my case. Following his advice I procured my past driving record and completed an I Drive Safely course prior to the court date. On my court date the judge agreed to dismiss the charges. So I have no conviction against my record and no effect on my auto insurance. I am very happy with the outcome and Christian's representation of me.

Wonderful representation

I contacted Mr. Mallott when I received a court summons for reckless driving after an accident in bad weather. He was very helpful in explaining the options before me, various possible outcomes and gave me suggestions of how to approach things before the court date. There was no hard sell to retain... his services, which I greatly appreciated as this was a very stressful time. Prior to trial, he reviewed all my materials thoroughly and provided excellent counsel on the day of. I'm pleased to say that my case was dismissed, and am confident that Mr. Malott would have continued to provide valuable support if it had proceeded further.

Great advice, efficient strategy, very reliable.

I received a ticket outside of Richmond for an accident that occurred in bad weather. Mr. Malott was exactly the type of lawyer I was looking for. Not only was he very professional, but most importantly he was reliable. Every email and call I made to Mr. Malott was responded to promptly and efficien...tly. He heard my case out and was excellent in formulating a plan and giving advice from the start after only just reading my initial email. Having covered all my initial questions in our first few correspondences, Mr. Malott made me feel both secure and confident that I would receive some of the best legal advice and representation available. I would highly recommend his services as well as his many optional recommendations as to what I could do to better my position. They were all instrumental in resolving my case successfully. A big thanks to Mr. Malott.

Lifesaver!!

I was so scared of what the outcome of my case was going to be, fell asleep while driving, crashed and totaled my vehicle. Christian was able to persuade the judge to allow me to take driving school again and pay a fine to dismiss everything. I am so thankful for him representing me and not only knoc...king this case out, but being such an affordable rate! Christian you truly are a lifesaver, no words for how thankful I am!
