I live in Chicago and got a ticket because we were late for whale watching. I found a firm on the net that seemed to charge only $75 to handle my case. I called them and they seemed OK. It sounded a little too good to be true so I did a little more research. I found out that all they did was write a letter. They don't even go to court. After reading Christopher's blog piece, I decided to go with CMS. CMS took the reins and I didn't have to do anything else. Kate kept me informed as to what the possible outcomes were and then what was going to happen and when. On the day of the hearing I got an email informing me that my ticket was dismissed! You want someone to go to court for you. CMS did. I hope I don't get another ticket in Seattle, but if I do, I'll use CMS.

I dealt with Kate . She was prompt, efficient and friendly. The paperwork was simple. Paid my fee and then all I got was my case dismissed. Would definitely recommend them again.

I've received about 6-8 of tickets over the past 6 years, and have gotten out of them through free legal advice from several lawyer-friends of mine. But this time, I had 7 days before my court date and the prosecution had an air-tight case. With no hope for safeguarding my driving record, I asked a busy lawyer-friend to recommend someone that MIGHT be able to help me. She recommended Christopher Small. I was happy to retain him, but honestly believed that my case was a lost cause (especially with only 7 days to prepare). I was ticketed for breaking the speed limit on an empty freeway, not driving unsafely. Chris got my speeding ticket reduced to a non-moving violation. I had to pay a fine, but nothing appeared on my driving record. Chris made the impossible, possible. As a sheriff-friend of mine will tell you, everyone gets tickets. The next time I find myself in this situation, I will hire Chris Small again, and again, and again.
