While traveling through South Carolina to Florida for a family Vacation, I let up off my Breaks, due to a major traffic jam and tapped the rear-end of another car. I mean literally, there was no damage to either vehicle. Still, I was given a citation for traveling too fast for conditions. After contacting Attorney Ray Lord and explaining the situation, he explained to me that there was no guarantee of an outcome, but he would put forth his best effort. Well, his best effort resulted in the citation being totally dismissed. I'm not real high on giving over due praise, but in this instance I acknowledge and respect Attorney Lord for his Professionalism, Straightforwardness', and timely response(s) in addressing all my concerns.

If you get an unsolicited letter from Lord Law firm, don't throw it away. Got a speeding ticket in SC, Ray was able to get it reduced to a "non moving violation", which resulted in "No Points" on my license. Best results I could've hoped for. This is probably the 5th review I've ever given, WELL DESERVED! Thank you!

Ray defended me recently regarding a speeding violation I was charged with as I travelled through SC from NC. At the time I was stopped, I did not realize this would be an automatic suspension of my license in NC for speeding in a construction zone more than 15 miles over the posted reduced speed. Ray saved me a trip back to Gaffney and not only got the charge reduced but I had no points charged to me. This was my first ticket in over 30 years and upset me greatly. Thank you, Ray for totally doing what you told me you would do.

While in SC, I got into an accident I hit the truck in front of me, and the truck behind me, collided with me. So I was in the middle of a 3 truck accident. I received a ticket for " driving too fast for conditions ". My insurance rates would climb to where it would be unprofitable to keep my business. I hired Mr. Ray Lord to handle my case. He took care of everything, I did not have to appear in court, or pay court fees. The result was what I hopped for, I was found "Not Guilty" saving me from going out of business and paying huge insurance costs. Thanks Mr. Lord!!!

Mr. Lord did a great job with his representation of my case in court. He was able to argue that the speeding charge should be dismissed and be replaced by another charge involving my car equipment. The court accepted his argument and I am able to get my equipment checked and use it appropriately instead of having points on my record. Awesome!

While on a cross country trip I received a speeding ticket in Sourh Carolina. I was concerned about the expense and the points associated with a speeding ticket. I contacted Ray Lord and decided to hire him knowing that that there are no guaranttees when dealing with the courts. Tom called me after the court date and informed me that he was able to get the ticket dismissed ! Definitely worth it!

Finally, after 3 months of committing a traffic violation, the court's judgement was rendered and I never appeared in court. To my thankful surprise, the decision was a fine of less than $200 and NO points. It could have been much, much worse financially. (having done the math, his fee was both a time saver and was well worth every dollar.) Mr. Lord was efficient and to the point in all communications ie phone, text and email. Actually sent him a pic of my ticket using my phone so he could begin my defense in just a few days. Naively, i thought i could plea my case in person by asking for mercy upon explaining my circumstances. Even my auto insurance company told me getting a lawyer was the best option if I thought the fee was reasonable. What was even more amazing was his firm found me (sent an unsolicited letter to me) and thanks to google I thought his firm would be a good choice. In my first contact with him via phone (which included sending him the pic), i was convinced pretty quickly that he will be my traffic court advocate. Finally, as a warning, I want to add that he asked me several times during that first conversation about my conduct with the officer who wrote the ticket. I responded that i was very courteous to which he responded, good.

I am very grateful to Ray for an excellent job. I consulted Ray for help with a "huge" speeding ticket that gave me sleepless nights as I certainly did not exceed the speed limit by the alleged "huge" margin. Ray appeared in court on my behalf and achieved a 60% reduction of the excess speed margin. I did not even have to attend court for the hearing. Yes, Ray is awesome, totally professional and trustworthy. Thank you Ray.
