Caroline County, VA Reckless Driving Lawyer Review
As an out of state mom worried about my kid, I took a chance with David Long and so grateful that I did. My son got a speeding ticket in VA, as all state laws are different; in VA this is reckless driving and a possible Misdemeanor. I googled lawyers in VA having no idea who to use. On David Long’s website there were testimonials… they were all wonderful to read, but one stood out. It was written by a mom in a similar situation and the words that stuck out were.. kindness, comfort, always there for me, really helped my son, a wonderful man, these were the words I was looking for. I called and hired Mr. Long and knew this was the right lawyer for us and I was so right. He was able to manage this case through phone calls and email. He was very professional with the confidence and kindness I was looking for. My son and I were truly grateful. My son walked away without reckless driving and no misdemeanor. We highly recommend David Long….. a wonderful and extremely competent attorney. ~Jill
