I have three very good outcomes today in Appomattox General District Court, one reckless charge and two speeding tickets. I basically have a Route 460 practice which spans the space between Bedford and Nottoway, and all of the counties in between. If you need an experienced traffic lawyer in those areas, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thoroughly enjoyed myself at The Terrapin Mountain Festival this morning located at the Sedalia Center in Bedford County. I gave a talk regarding the cannabis laws in Virginia and how to follow them. I’ll be back next year for sure!
