We were traveling through S. VA to NOVA and I was seeking to get away from a reckless driver yet I got pulled over for speeding. I contacted Riley and Wells, and they literally handled everything for a reasonable fee. I was cited for 18 mph over. I explained the situation to the officer and he simply handed me a ticket. Riley and Wells handled the court date, negotiated no charges on my record, and ensured zero impact on my issuance premium. Additionally, I didn’t even need to attend in person. I found them on Google based on reviews. The cost of the fee paid for itself in the savings of my insurance not going up, as well as no charge on my record. I simply had to pay a small fine. And that’s it. Highly recommend this firm, and would use them again.

We are very grateful to Mr. Vinson of Riley & Wells Attorneys firm and happy how he represented our son in court for driving related incident. The results could not be better. We received from Mr. Vinson the highest professional and integrity level of service. We are also grateful to Heather Lankford, the legal assistant for making all the interactions smooth and easy.

I had a great experience with Mr. Remington representing me. He answered all my questions and explained the process to me clearly in a way I could understand. The assistants and office staff I spoke to where also great and really helpful! Seamless process. Thank you so much! Would definitely recommend.

Riley & Wells Attorney-At-Law made things so easy for me when they accepted my case and decided to represent me for a VA summons I received for going 97/70. As I am not from Virginia and it was inconvenient for me to take a trip back just for court they took that matter into their own hands and were able to attend for me. They managed to get my entire cases dismissed saving me from a conviction of a Class 1 Misdemeanor. They reduced the amount of stress I had for this was my first offense and I was terrified. They kept their promise of giving me their utmost service and I highly recommend their services!

This firm was extremely helpful for me when I was pulled over for going 92 in a 70 in New Kent County on 64 West. They provided a free initial consultation as well as expert advice that was realistic but encouraging. Due to their adviceI was able to attend a Reckless Driving course prior to the court hearing and the judge ended up lowering my sentencing to a $150 for a 79 in a 70 moving violation. I would 100% recommend everybody with traffic court cases to at the very least make use of their consultation.

Greetings,Unfortunately I received a speeding ticket when leaving the Sisisky Gate on Fort Lee. I had only been at the installation for a few days and didn’t realize the speed limit stayed low all the way out the gate. Other installations it gradually increases. I have a clean driving record and had never been pulled over by MPs on a military installation in my 10 years in the military. Luckily, Mr. Riley handled my case and the ticket was completely dropped as if it never existed. I no longer have to worry about not being able to drive on Fort Lee as I chose to live on the installation. They charged a little more to handle the federal case, but it was worth it to not have any points out on my license and still have my driving privileges.Thanks again Mr. Riley!-Tiffany

Got pulled over by a state trooper who aggressively tailgated me and chased me around the road. Mitch Wells was magnificent in court, made the judge understand what had happened to me, and got me out of trouble. Don't go anywhere else, Riley and Wells are your defense team!

The firm was incredibly professional and easy to work with and even came recommended by fellow lawyers. Mr. Vinson took my initial call and answered all my questions (of which there were a few) and agreed to represent me. Heather and team were very responsive and communicative through email and things were wrapped up within a week after the court date. Mr. Vinson and team even got my ticket dismissed in Richmond court! Would definitely recommend their services for traffic violations in the area.

Very professional and easy to work with. Retainer is very reasonable, especially if you are from out of state and are unaware of Virginia's very strict traffic laws. Very well represented in court and in my case the original offense was downgraded. Cannot recommend Riley & Wells enough.

I am very pleased with the outcome. This law firm was professional, efficient and aggressive with my speeding ticket / wreckless driving charge. Everything reduced to a non moving fine only!!!! Initially I shopped around and there were firms that were asking for a lot less BUT you can’t compare the advice , the fight and EFFECTIVENESS you receive !!! DEFINITELY worth it!!!! HIGHLY recommend!!! Wish I could give more than 5 stars!!!

I recently got a reckless ticket going 87mph on a 70mph. As a full time college students and have a part time job I was very stressed/nervous if I can afford the lawyer fees or if I have the time to do additional requirements such as community services. Mr. Cody Remington gave me a flat fee of $1000 to represent me in court. He was able to reduce my charge to non effective equipment. Even though i spent a month of worth of pay check to paid for this and court fees. I’m very thankful for Mr. Remington and the receptionist for always being helpful and definitely learned my lesson.

I had a unique situation come up and was shocked that Mitch took my call on a Saturday. He immediately put me at ease and I could tell over the phone that he was a professional. I was not disappointed with the great service we ultimately received and the final resolution. I can't recommend this firm highly enoughBilly W.
