I can't recommend Attorney Barlow enough. At our initial consultation, he was direct and realistic…read moreabout what to expect - he made no promises about the outcome and gave a clear assessment of my options and what he thought was achievable. I hired him immediately. His skill in negotiating on my behalf along with keeping me informed through the entire process led to an outcome that was better than I expected. His right hand, Christina, kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes and she was always quick to address my questions every time I reached out. I don't anticipate ever having to hire him again, but should I require an attorney, he's my first call.

Some 17 years ago I found myself in the first (and ultimately only) trouble of my life. I hired…read moreMr. Yates as my attorney to represent me on some serious charges in Virginia Beach. I'll be honest in saying that at the time I wasn't overly sure I had made the right decision. Mr. Yates is a straight shooter and may come off as less compassionate than you would hope for. With that said he has a great law mind and knew what direction to take my case. I am writing this review now because it took many years to realize how fortunate I was to have Mr. Yates handle my case. He gave me an opportunity to work my way out of the trouble I had gotten myself into. Yes, I had to plead guilty but in fairness I was guilty. The plea bargin that I accepted (from Mr. Yates work with the courts) offered me a chance to avoid jail time and ultimately have the charges dismissed. I rarely think about that chapter of my life anymore. It seems like another lifetime ago. I don't recall exactly what I paid for his services but I don't remember it being unreasonable and given the outcome it was well worth it. Thanks to Mr. Yates those charges are nowhere to be found on my record and I have been able to live my life without concern for the mistakes I made that year. Thank you Mr. Yates.

After being in court for a reckless driving charge, I realized how serious these charges were and…read moregot to hear the consequences others were faced with. It was with this knowledge that I saw the need to get a lawyer. I was referred to Mr Johnson by my Mother in Law who he represented very well. " That was a Home Run!" These were the words from Mr Johnson after the case. And it was indeed that. We both saw this as a big victory. I dont want to give details of this case. But I can guarantee you I will be referring everyone I know to him. I've watched the other Lawyers represent their clients in the court and I was disappointed. Call Jerrell Johnson.

When you get a speeding ticket an attorney is not the first thing that usually comes to mind, but…read moreit should be. The why will be explained in my review of Attorney Gary Searcy. A speeding ticket can happen to anyone, even granny me who rarely speeds above a posted limit. When pulled over be as nice to the officer as you can and hopefully if no priors you can catch a break with a warning. My experience was professional and polite with the officer, but this motorcycle cop was all about writing tickets. So at that point it's pay the fine and admit guilt. Or the alternative is fight it yourself, or retain counsel. I had no referral of Attorney Searcy, he solicited me in the mail as did several others. I called and talked with him directly and he went over my case free of charge and offered advice, again free of charge. I did talk to others too, but he was by far the most friendly to talk to and helpful with no obligation. As the court date loomed I decided to call Gary back and retain his counsel. Cost for a straight forward speeding ticket without DUI, reckless etc was $175. Others were charging up to $400. So he was both on the reasonable end and who I liked best anyway. A few things I was requested to do. Obtain a current driving record from the DMV and get a calibration from Beach Calibration. On the court date Attorney Searcy was prompt and met with me. We waited our turn for my docket to be read and stood before the judge and police officer, then was sworn in. The judge took a hardline and my attorney advised an appeal. Of course it's an additional cost and a gamble, but why not. If the case could be settled before the cost would be minimal. So today was D Day and again Mr. Searcy was prompt and professional. The prosecutor refused to settle the case with no points which was what my attorney wanted. The officer was in the court room. The judge heard the evidence and sided with me. No points and reduced down to improper equipment which was the goal. Case closed. So why get an attorney for a simple speeding ticket if you decide to fight it? Because counsel knows the players. My attorney knew the judges, he knew the officer and although it did not work out to negotiate the prosecutor. In the end it was worth it. A simple speeding ticket remains on your record for 3 years. Insurance will go up several hundred a year and may not go back to a normal rate for over 5 years. I can't say enough great things about Searcy Law. Gary has years of experience and can help you with your traffic case.

Not sure why the woman below is mad that he got her case dismissed, that seems like she's complaining for no good reason. He did exactly what was discussed and got the best result possible for me.

They get 0 stars :P

In the end when my court date came Mr. Cardon was able to get my reckless driving reduced to only speeding 19 over and a $200 fine. I would highly recommend Mr.Cardon to anyone else stuck in the same situation I was.

On January 8th at around noon I was contacted by Diane in their office that there had been an emergency and could I come at 2pm on Friday, January 11th. No problem. I called to confirm earlier today since they did not and was told she was in court but would be back for our meeting. I arrived at 2:02 after wandering around for a minute to find their upstairs suite. I was handed some in-depth paperwork to fill out which could've been sent to me and done beforehand like employer address, driver's license and husbands personal info. Annoying. But whatever. I finished and handed it back at 2:05. I had heard the receptionist inform her I was there but "had to fill out paperwork". At 2:17 I asked what was going on. At 2:22 I said I was annoyed and she walked back to check. I informed the receptionist I was annoyed and she said she was talking to her paralegal as she'd been in court all day and just got back. At 2:28 Christy opened the door and said I looked upset. I said yes, I had a few questions to ask her before we got started and she said I could go ahead and ask them. So I asked her if it was standard practice to keep her clients with appointments (that had already been resked by the way) waiting a half an hour, if she was under the impression by what her receptionist had said that I wasn't ready for our meeting and she had a bunch of time, or was what she was discussing with her paralegal something she could have possibly done after our scheduled meeting as my time is also valuable and I had left work early for this? She looked me up and down and said, "I'm going to go ahead and decline representation at this time for both of us." In a snide way. Like how dare I. So rather than answer my questions, apologize for keeping me waiting, or address that she had wasted my time. She chose to do that. I said I thought that was best as well since I didn't like how it was starting off either. And she wished me a good day in a pretty snide tone, and I replied in kind and walked out. I went back in to collect my paperwork after walking to the parking lot with all of my personal information as I don't want them having it. I dislike when someone in a perceived position of authority does this. Wastes my time. Treats me badly. Fails to own mistakes or apologize and can't stand to be called out on it. Like how dare I. And I was going to pay her $100 to be treated like that?!? No way. I've had doctors treat me this way as well in the past and it's not good business practice. Had she apologized for the wait or tried to say yes, what she was discussing with her paralegal was time sensitive but she realized so was mine and let's get started. It could've been smoothed over. Nope. None of that happened. Absolutely unsat. Zero stars if possible. Yikes! I think I dodged a bullet!
