Virginia Speeding Ticket Defense Lawyer

Virginia ranks as one of the toughest states on speeders. A Virginia Speeding Ticket is probably the most common type of traffic violation in Virginia. Consult a lawyer before you attempt to plead guilty. NOTE: Receiving a Speeding Ticket is NOT a conviction. A conviction can negatively affect you in many ways. Excessive fines. Assessment of moving violation demerit points to your driving record. Loss of driving privileges depending on speed and prior convictions. Increased insurance premiums.

CAUTION: A speeding ticket conviction will on average increase the automobile insurance premium by 20%-30% EACH YEAR, according to a study conducted by Insurance.com

Virginia Reckless Driving Speeding Attorneys

The most serious type of speeding case in Virginia is the Reckless Driving Speeding Ticket pursuant to Va. Code 46.2-862. Reckless driving in Virginia is a criminal misdemeanor violation. A driver is guilty of reckless driving for travelling at a speed of 20 miles per hour or more above the speed limit OR in excess of 80 miles per hour regardless of the speed limit. There are many places on Virginia interstates where the speed limit is 70 miles per hour. Thus, driving 11 mph over the 70 mph speed limit can trigger this harsh law.

I received a speeding citation of 69-55 on I-64 late at night on my way home from work. I knew I wasn't traveling as fast as I was cited for but thought about just pleading guilty, pay the fine and be done with it. But after rethinking it I'm so glad I didn't. I contacted a few local law firms in the area but when I spoke with the Riley and Wells Attorneys at Law firm I knew I had found the firm to go with. The handling of my case was very professional and the results extremely successful. I didn't have to take off from work to attend court, the cost of their service was very reasonable priced and everything worked out to my benefit. I highly recommend their services to anyone who may need legal representation!!!!

When I found myself facing a reckless driving charge (86mph/70mph) on 95S in Virginia, I turned to the law firm of Riley & Wells. Fortunately for me, Cody Remington agreed to represent me in court. With his skill and knowledge, he was able to obtain a great outcome in my case. I am so appreciative of Cody Remington and his team’s efforts on my behalf, I would highly recommend the law firm of Riley & Wells without hesitation.

Riley and Wells helped me out of what could have been a tough situation...particularly since I live outside the state if Virginia (reckless driving, over 80 in Emporia). Mr. Wells and his staff were very professional and courteous when I spoke with them via phone. Ultimately, my case was resolved with no points and at reasonable rate. They also saved me the trouble of making a trip back to Emporia, VA for a court date. Ultimately, I was very happy with the service and results I received. I'd be happy to recommend Riley & Wells!

I contacted them two weeks before my court date after realizing that what I thought was a speeding ticket was actually a misdemeanor for reckless driving. They were able to handle my case for me on the short deadline and got it reduced to just an infraction. Definetly worth the money, especially since they handled everything for me including going to court on my behalf. Fantastic team that will help you out of a scary situation.

Riley and Wells were amazing representation for my case. They alleviated any of my stress and were able to reduce my charge and get it entirely dismissed. I was advised to do a few things such as community service and get a few character references. I found it helpful to call and talk to the lawyer representing me to reiterate my understanding of what I can do and what needs to be done and then act on that. Would highly recommend them!

I reached to Riley & Wells for the speeding charge where finally the case was reduced to defective equipment. I went with this firm after reviewing many firms and the result was good - no points. I recommend the firm if you receive a traffic violation in the state of Virginia.

I am a Professional Truck Driver and I received a 70 in a 55 in Petersburg, VA and Riley & Wells handled the process. They were able to get it knocked down to a defective speedometer which was no points on my Commercial Drivers License nor does it go against my insurance so it my insurance rates would not be impacted. I was very pleased at the outcome and well worth the investment in order to protect my Commercial Drivers License and prevent an increase in my insurance policies. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone who has a moving traffic violation, specially those that have a Commercial Drivers License in order to protect their livelihood. Thank you again Riley & Wells for the great results.

Mr Dean was amazing. I was pulled over for allegedly going 69 in a 45 and He was able to get the charge reduce to a non moving (no point) violation. I would definitely recommend.

Was charged with reckless driving that could have cost me up to $2500, a criminal record, and an insurance nightmare. I was represented by Mitchell Wells for a fee of $750 and had a very favorable outcome. I didn't have to be present thankfully because I live in Quebec Canada ,and the end result was a non moving, non criminal violation with zero demerit points and a small fine of $165 plus $66 court cost. Thank you Mr. Wells and staff for your professional services and saving me from a lifetime of hardship.

My son received a speeding ticket (72 in a 55) in Brunswick County -- we live in North Carolina. I searched online and found Riley & Wells to have top reviews. I knew that Virginia had very strict traffic laws. Without question, I felt secure in my choice. I spoke to Cody and he said he would do whatever he could to reduce the charges. Riley & Wells went above and beyond and got the best possible outcome, short of getting the matter dismissed. No insurance points! You will not be disappointed if you choose this firm. Their team made me feel like they cared about me and getting the best possible result. Thank you Riley & Wells for making this as painless as possible.

I received a reckless driving citation in Prince George County. I contacted a handful of firms, all of which never gave me a straight answer about the whole process, including fees. I then contacted Riley and Wells. I was able to speak to Cody Remington on the spot. He was very up front assured me that with my driving record and my occupation he could most likely come to a favorable resolution. Additionally, the flat fee was more reasonable than any of the other firms I spoke with. In the end the violation was reduced to improper driving and I had a minor fine and court fees. The best part was that it was NOT a misdemeanor and won’t negatively impact my insurance or driving record. Thank you Cody Remington and Riley and Wells for your impeccable service and attention to detail.

If you're looking for Traffic Lawyers, this is the place you want to start. I got a reckless driving (76/55) ticket when driving in Virginia from an out of state trip. Contacted Riley & Wells, and their team guided me on what's the best and worst outcome that will happen and everything worked out at the end. I didn't need to show up and my Ticket was reduced to something understandable. Again thank you again.

Mitch Wells went above and beyond to represent me for a traffic violation in my absence due to surgery. I was at home recovering when he contacted me by surprise to let me know that my case had been taken care of. I am very thankful to him for being there for me during that time. I could not have been happier with the results of my case and the professionalism of Mr. Wells. I would highly recommend Riley & Wells. Thank you again Mitch!!
