Bill hicks is an outstanding lawyer! i strongly recommend him! i have used his services twice now and he surpassed my expectations! my first ticket was a reckless and he got it reduced not only to speeding but to a 15 over! that is unheard of, in fairfax county that is impossible! my second ticket was disregarding a light and he got it reduced to failure to pay full time attention which has no points! he was absolutely unbelievable! i give him 10 stars! you will not find a better lawyer in all of Virginia!

I was facing serious time and Mr. Hicks got my charges dropped to misdemeanors. I didn't have to spend one day in jail. All my other cases for driving on suspended were dismissed in trial or nolo processed. He's what I would like to call a bull dog. He knows his stuff and his primary purpose is to set us free. Hire him if you want to be free.

I found Mr Hicks on Google as soon as I realized I needed a good attorney. He was close by and seemed to be excellently qualified for my need. We met and he explained his fee structure as well as what I should expect and what he would do to try and mitigate. His honesty made my first experience on the back side of the law at least tolerable and less traumatic. In the end he convinced the prosecutor to reduce the charge to a misdemeanor and suspended sentence with probation. He is also returning the lion’s share of my deposit, saying his ethics demanded a refund of unearned funds. You can’t beat that.

Mr. Hicks is an incredible attorney! He was recommended by my friend, who had multiple DUIs and did not spend a day in jail with Mr Hicks as his attorney. He has saved me twice now, both times I did not do a day in jail and was given the opportunity to be free and have another chance. I also recommended him to a friend, who was so happy with his services. This man has wisdom and experience, he knows what to do and how to win. He has never lost a DUI/DWI case! Not only is Mr. Hicks extremely knowledgeable, with decades of experience, he is a kind caring and compassionate person. He is the reason I am walking free today.

BR HICKS was a beacon of hope to my family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed nigh on impossible. Not only was he able to defend us from an unjust accusation, but his calm and empathetic demeanor also offered emotional succor to myself and those I care about most. My children and I are eternally grateful for his service and I hereby recommend Mr.Hicks without reservation.Thank you Mr.Hicks.

I've been knowing bill for 30 years, only used him once, for something small. Bill sometimes can tell you the outcome, before he take the case. There are allot of shady attorneys, and he isn't one them.
