How to Choose the Right Virginia Traffic Lawyer (Part B)

If a Virginia reckless driving attorney claims to have argued Virginia speeding ticket cases as a prosecutor, you should also invite them to list the jurisdictions where they were employed. If they worked as a Commonwealth attorney in a county which processed a large number of traffic cases (such as Fairfax County), then they'll obviously be more experienced than if they had spent time in a county with fewer such cases (like Alexandria County).

Ethics are Important Too

In addition to experience, your Virginia reckless driving attorney should also possess a reputation that is respected and above reproach. Therefore, it is also important to ask questions about a lawyer's ethics.

The first question you should ask is whether the attorney has ever been disciplined by the Virginia state bar. This is the oversight body which monitors the conduct of lawyers and has the ability to sanction, suspend, or even disbar them for ethical or criminal transgressions.

In other words, if you would think twice about hiring an employee who had a criminal record, then you should also hesitate to engage the services of an attorney who has a record of run-ins with the state bar.

Aside from the existence of legal sanctions, there is another way to establish how skilled and respected a given Virginia reckless driving attorney is. The Martindale-Hubbell ratings are evaluations of lawyers that are made confidentially by other lawyers.

Martindale-Hubbell measures an attorney's:

• overall expertise;
• specific expertise in their chosen legal specialties; and
• professional ability standard.

The ratings use an A, B, and C scale to rank attorneys. But the highest rating any lawyer can receive is an AV rating, which denotes that the individual has attained the highest level of professional excellence.

What about my Virginia reckless driving case?

Finally, a qualified Virginia reckless driving attorney should be able to present strategies and opinions about your particular case. When you summarize the details surrounding your Virginia speeding ticket, a qualified lawyer will be able to speak intelligently about the challenges of your case instead of simply giving you a generic, boiler-plate answer.

Also, a good Virginia reckless driving attorney will be able to outline the basic costs in your case, which may include investigators, expert witnesses, and other charges. However, even the best lawyer cannot guarantee an outcome in your reckless driving case. So be very suspicious of attorneys who issue such bold claims.
