I highly recommend Mr. Leavitt as he represented me as an out of state driver. He was prompt in returning messages and told me everything I needed to do step by step. He was very professional yet easy to work with. What could have been catastrophic for me, turned into my only having to pay court costs. I am truly grateful for Mr. Leavitt. This was my first offense for reckless driving and I am very pleased with outcome. Again, I highly recommend Mr. Leavitt.

I am an out-of-state driver who received reckless driving charge (24 mph over the speed limit) in Virginia. Mr. Daniel Leavitt was extremely responsive, knowledgable, and professional. He personally answered all of my questions within a reasonable time (he actually emailed me back for my consultation on a Saturday) and his depth of knowledge of Virginia traffic laws and the court which I was summoned to was beyond impressive. Everything about this practice set them apart from other firms in a very positive way. Upon retaining legal representation, I was walked through exactly what was needed of me prior to my summons. Mr. Leavitt’s knowledge of what each judge will accept/want was reassuring. I asked some questions that started to creep beyond the scope of traffic law (how this could affect employment, clearing travel with pending charges) and Mr. Leavitt still answered thoroughly and reassured me. Based on the specifics of my case, I did not have to appear in court and despite this felt well-represented. My charges were reduced to improper driving, which is a simple traffic infraction and not a misdemeanor. It is also the lowest moving violation one can receive in Virginia. I was beyond ecstatic to know I avoided a permanent criminal conviction, possible jail time and/or license suspension, thousands of dollars in fines, and emotional/mental stress. I am endlessly thankful for the legal representation and help that I received from Leavitt & Martin and wanted to share my experience… as the hundreds of positive reviews left by other clients helped me pick the right lawyer. 10/10, A+, 100%, highest remarks to Leavitt & Martin.

Just Wow! Not only was my reckless driving citation reduced to a no-points violation, Dan more importantly answered all my questions professionally, any time of day, and in a way that gave me confidence I selected the right attorney before he represented me in court. This included the tough questions surrounding the fees and costs of the entire process, and how those compared to other attorneys. I do consider myself lucky by finding Dan to represent me!

Mr. Leavitt was very helpful throughout the whole process and answered very quick as well. He was able to reduce my 96/70 ticket to just an improper driving charge. This meant it was no longer a misdemeanor and I would just need to pay a fine much smaller than the one I would’ve if it was a reckless charge. Also I live about 3 1/2 hours away from where I had got the ticket, and he was able appear in court for me and my presence was not needed! I highly recommend hiring Mr. Leavitt.

Leavitt & Martin represented me for a reckless driving case in Mecklenburg county. Daniel Leavitt was very responsive to all my inquiries and the charge was reduced to defective equipment, a non-moving violation. He was knowledgeable, polite, accessible and ultimately delivered the most desirable result for my case.

I am very glad to have had Mr. Leavitt as my lawyer for the case. My reckless driving charge was reduced to a defective driving equipment charge. I also was not required to take a driving course after the sentencing. This was the best possible outcome, much better than I had expected. Sincerely grateful for Mr. Leavitt's counsel and help.

I was on my way home to New York from North Carolina after visiting my son. I got stopped in Dinwiddie, VA, doing 84 in a 70. Leavitt & Martin took my case, shared with me ways in which I could tilt the wind in my direction, responded quickly to all my emails, and ultimately got the charge dismissed. Their fee was reasonable and I was very pleased with the result. Many lawyers solicited me through the mail, but I would strongly recommend using Leavitt & Martin.

Daniel is very knowledgeable and seems very experienced so I attained him as my attorney after having talked to several firms, one of which (at another location) actually recommended him. The reviews don't lie! I got a reckless by speed going 83/70 on I-85. Same as most, I didn't realize how serious it was until I did some research. I called and asked him what he could do and what I should expect as the outcome, etc. He answered all my questions in a timely manner, recommended things to do before court date. I did them all, and here I am writing good things about him because, as of yesterday, he got my case completely dismissed with only a court fee. Hire him! He's good!

He reduced my 81/70 reckless driving ticket ( possible misdemeanor) to defective equipment. That means no points or a criminal record! The only thing that put me off was lack of communication, but with how good he is I'm sure he is just very busy with lots of cases, but I would have liked to be notified about my outcome. But other than that, he was amazing and I'm very happy with the outcome. I will recommend. THANK YOU!!

Attorney Daniel Leavitt is hands down the best attorney I was able to find in or near the Emporia, Virginia area!! I received a reckless driving ticket (exceeding 80mph on the highway) while passing through Virginia headed back to see some family for the holidays. After returning home I found out the possible punishments and repercussions that a reckless driving charge held in Virginia. Knowing I would not be able to return to Virginia for court in five weeks, I conducted some very thorough research into who I thought would be the best attorney in that area. This led me to Daniel Leavitt. Once I found and immediately began speaking to Mr. Leavitt I was extremely impressed and I obtained his legal counsel. From that point on and straight through until the DISMISSAL, yes DISMISSAL of my case and his follow up phone call and email notification afterwards; Mr. Leavitt handled everything for me making my part of the case very simple for me. He was nothing but professional, prompt, precise and accurate throughout my entire case. I recall even emailing him late one night (approximately 1:00a.m.) to provide him some information and also ask him a few questions, not expecting an answer back until at least later that next business day and much to my surprise, he replied back to my email within about 10 minutes. I was shocked!! Lastly, I’d say through my research, his asking prices were average, though for the service he provided and for getting my case dismissed, THAT is PRICELESS!! I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney!! Thank you (and your legal team) again Daniel Leavitt!! A DEFINITE 5 STARS!!!!!

I live in North Carolina. I was traveling through Hopewell VA and got cited with a speeding/careless & reckless driving ticket. We hired Mr. Leavitt as my attorney and he did everything that he said he would and more! Both tickets got dropped to improper equipment which was very shocking because I have an awful driving record. Very nice, personable and professional but not cocky as some(most) good lawyers are. Mr. Leavitt has our trust.

I live in Virginia Beach,VA and I was driving my parents from Orlando. I received a reckless driving for driving 89mph in a 70mph zone going around Richmond,I was shocked to find out that the charge of Reckless Driving is a Class 1 Misdemeanor. decided to go with Daniel Leavitt. I called him and he could not have been nicer or more knowledgeable.The outcome was a defective equipment, no points, non-moving traffic infraction. It is tough to find an out of town lawyer. The outcome was very favorable and I was glad I sought such good representation. If you’re ever in a bind on a traffic ticket in VA – I would highly recommend representation by Daniel Leavitt. Thank you again Mr. Leavitt!
