DISCLAIMER – EACH CASE IS UNIQUE AND CASE RESULTS DEPEND ON YOUR INDIVIDUAL SITUATION. CASE RESULTS DO NOT GUARANTEE OR PREDICT A SIMILAR RESULT IN ANY FUTURE CASE UNDERTAKEN BY THE LAWYER.
Below we feature a sampling of notable case results for March and April of 2021. We helped clients avoid reckless driving convictions for speeds as high as 98 mph (Chesapeake GDC) and 95 mph (Virginia Beach GDC), and avoid jail for speeds as high as 100 mph (Northampton GDC). Clients also avoided misdemeanors for reckless driving for racing at 107 mph (Norfolk GDC), failure to appear (Virginia Beach GDC), no operator’s license (Virginia Beach GDC), eluding the police (Southampton GDC), and misdemeanor tunnel height violation (Hampton GDC). A client with a DUI 2nd offense avoided additional mandatory jail time when her BAC was kept out of the charge (read more about DUI defense here). Dismissals occurred in cities such as Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Suffolk, Newport News, and Hampton.
