Traffic Lawyer in Louisa VA Client Review

We recently had to engage Riley and Wells regarding a traffic citation (81 in a 70 MPH along the I-64 corridor in Louisa County) our daughter received while driving back to her college in VA. After seeing the reviews that were posted, and speaking with the staff at Riley & Wells I believe we made an excellent choice. I appreciate their professionalism and diligent work in getting our her citation reduced to defective equipment. They did a fabulous job in preventing her from having points placed on her license (which would have meant a BIG increase in her premiums). I heartily recommend them to anyone in similar circumstances.
