Lee County VA Traffic Ticket Lawyer
Located at the very Southwestern corner of Virginia, Lee County is sandwiched in between Kentucky and Tennessee. As of the 2018 census estimate, Lee County had a population of slightly under 25,000. The county seat of Lee County is Jonesville, which is located at the intersection of Highway 58 and Highway 70.
Lee County narrows moving from east to west until it touches both Kentucky and Tennessee in the Cumberland Gap National Historic Park. US Interstate 58 (also called “Wilderness Road”) runs in a Northeast to Southwest direction through most of the county, until it diverts south into Tennessee just before reaching the Cumberland Gap.
In addition to US 58, other major highways in Lee County include US Interstate 421, Highway 70 (‘Trail of the Lonesome Pine Road”), and Highway 606. These highways are both scenic and mostly rural, which often leads to speeding and reckless driving tickets being issued by local law enforcement.
The Types of Traffic Matters in Which We Provide Representation
As a traffic ticket law firm serving Lee County, we provide representation for matters including speeding, reckless driving, and other traffic ticket matters.
In Virginia, it’s important to understand that driving 20 mph or more over the speed limit, or driving 86 mph or more, is considered reckless driving. Reckless driving is a criminal offense in Virginia, with potential penalties including incarceration and high fines.
Speeding, reckless driving, and other moving violations in particular should never be ignored. With the sophisticated and often interconnected federal and state law enforcement databases, a driver receiving a ticket should assume that this fact will show up if a search is done by law enforcement in another state.
Our Success in Traffic Ticket Matters
On behalf of clients, we frequently appear in courts located throughout southern Virginia and northern Tennessee. We know well the prosecutors in most counties, as well as how the judges in these counties are likely to rule on cases given specific facts and circumstances.
While we can never guarantee a positive outcome, our firm has a long and enviable records of achieving successful outcomes for our clients in speeding, reckless driving, and other traffic ticket matters. Often, we are able to get the tickets of our clients reduced to a lesser charge or getting all charges dropped. In many cases, prosecutors and judges are also willing to dismiss charges contingent upon a defendant successfully completing a safe driving program.
Once we know about the facts and circumstances of your ticket, we can discuss with you the options available, and how we will fight hard on your behalf in seeking to obtain for you the best outcome possible.
Do I need a Good Excuse to Get a More Favorable Treatment in Court?
Many people believe that a really good excuse is needed in order to “get out of” a traffic ticket at court, or to secure a more favorable outcome. This is often not the case.
As Lee County traffic ticket lawyers, we know that having a “good excuse” is not necessarily required for in order to get a better outcome. In fact, whether a driver may have had a good reason for exceeding the speed limit may never come up as part of the process of challenging a ticket. An otherwise favorable driving record, on the other hand, may be helpful.
Why Retain Our Firm? Free Consultation, Fixed Fees, Credit Card Acceptance, and Significant Experience
We offer a free consultation, fixed fee representation, and credit card acceptance for the payment of legal fees.
Firm founder Mark Hurt is a Duke Law School grad who has been practicing law for more nearly 30 years. During this time he has represented clients successfully in hundreds of negotiated settlements and numerous trials. He has represented clients through Virginia state courts and federal court, and has even represented clients before the United States Supreme Court.
The Benefits of Fixed Fee Representation
We know that no one prepares a budget for traffic tickets. In addition to the potential fines, with many law firms there can be significant uncertainty about how much a lawyer may charge for representation.
This is not the case with our firm. We are devoted to providing a reasonable fixed fee for representation, which will not increase even if you wish to take your case to trial.

I started receiving services through this law firm in 2017 for my workers compensation case. Over the years, this firm has been attentive, kind, patient and understanding to my needs. My calls were returned promptly, if the associate was unavailable at that time and I have had ample opportunity to speak with Mr Hurt directly concerning my case. With Mary Wilson, Bart Conway, Mr Hurt and others behind the scene, my case has progressed smoothly. I am very pleased with the services and attention I received at this firm and would recommend Mr Hurt, Mary and Bart for your needs.

I was in an accident where I was not at fault. I was hurt and my vehicle was totaled, so I found myself in need of an attorney. I worked with Diana Blevins and she was AMAZING! I knew I was going to be in good hands from the first conversation I had with her. Diana quickly replied to my emails and phone calls. She was very sympathetic while asking questions about what happened and extremely informative! The process moved very quickly and we did win the case! I recommend this law office to anyone in need of an attorney. Great experience!

The 1st time I applied for SSDI I was promptly turned down. I had heard that this is typical, and having a law firm to guide and help is, so far, making a great difference. Ms. Jessica has made re-filing for SSDI so much easier and I feel more secure knowing that their expertise will more than likely make all the difference on the next decision. Keep ya posted!

I'm glad i let Mark handle my speeding ticket because if i didn't, my license would've been suspended in NC. Laura took care of me from the beginning and clearly explained everything. They were able to have my ticket dropped to a defective equipment, which carries no points or will increase my insurance. 100% recommend them for tickets in VA.

Mark Hurt is not your typical “dime a dozen attorney”. He and his team have went above and beyond to help my family with my fiancé’s worker’s compensation claim. If you have ever had to deal with workers compensation you know what I am talking about. I can honestly say we were very fortunate to have found a law firm who treated us like family and not just a paycheck. We will always be so grateful for everything they did for us.

I recently was given a speeding ticket while passing through Virginia. I found the Law Office of Mark T Hurt through Google and am so thankful I did. I worked with Frankie, where she kindly and respectfully asked about my ticket, encounter, and driving record to determine the best course of action. Even at the end of my free consultation, I asked if it would be okay to speak with other offices, and she gave me great advice. Because of their professionalism, understanding, and kindness, I chose Frankie at The Law Offices of Mark T Hurt. Frankie called me soon after my hearing to explain in detail what the outcome was and what my next steps were. She was able to reduce my ticket to where my insurance would not be affected, and I would not have my license suspended. I am very grateful to have Frankie represent me and highly recommend her to anyone. Hopefully, I won't have to, but I will use them again in the future if I ever need to.

I hired Mark Hurt’s office to represent me on a reckless driving charge. As you may have heard this is a misdemeanor and you must hire counsel. There are a lot of counsel options in this part of Virginia. I’m glad I went w their offices for a few reasons 1) communication - very proactive and tech savvy. Laura from their office called me several times and explained the situation then followed up by both text and email to keep me posted. She was great - email / text / call exactly at the level of I needed when I needed it. I was always in the loop and loved being able to communicate by text (not everyone really offers this). 2) results - we got a fantastic result (defective equipment) and I couldn’t be happier w how it turned out. I checked out a lot of options and went w them even though they were on the higher end of cost because of the communication. Glad I did.

I found myself in need of an attorney for a traffic ticket I received while traveling. I had no idea that a speeding ticket, would be misdemeanor reckless driving. Thankfully I found a law firm that understood my needs, and were able to go above and beyond, to get this legal proceeding behind me. Laura kept me updated along the way, and made sure I understood the process, and the possible outcomes. I’m more than satisfied with their firm, and should I ever need future assistance, I would definitely call upon her. Than you for taking such good care of me. I appreciate it.

Professional, Available, and in your corner. I worked with Mark & his team, specifically Laura Knowles to assist a family member who had a traffic ticket to deal with in VA. Dealing with a traffic ticket is stressful, dealing with a ticket a few states away felt like an impossible task. From the first phone call to the last I can say with certainty that Laura cares deeply about the success of each client that they work with. She had a game plan ready to be executed from the beginning that proved they know exactly how to deal with these situations and have a track record of success. We cannot thank your team enough for lifting a great weight off of our shoulders and helping my family member more than you know! If you need assistance, call Mark's team first.
