Defense Attorney Steve Duckett

I got a Reckless Driving ticket in Prince William county, on the way home from OBX heading back to MD. It was about 3:45am I was going 91 in a 65. The officer pulled me over gave me a reckless driving ticket. I started freaking out as I found it was a Misdemeanor Charge and I've never been charged with anything before. Hell I've never got a speeding ticket before, called a few lawyers they all said "your going to jail, no way around it". I called Steve and after one phone call he gave me a list of stuff to do before court. (26 hours community service, Speedometer calibration, MD Driving record, a few letters of recommendation). I was super nervous as I've heard people going to jail over this, so I completed everything Steve asked me to do. Arrived at court with all of my paperwork, got the Reckless Driving dropped to a speeding ticket of 87-65 with a 250$ fine and court costs. Compared to 2500$ and 12 months in jail I'd take my outcome 100% of the time.. I would 100% recommend Steve for any traffic or criminal defense. I would definitely hire Steve again.

I had a great experience with Steve Duckett and his team. We started my case with all odds against us. He knows his stuff. I never realized to what degree, the truth can be obliterated in the justice system just to convict an innocent person for other interest. When Steve has his game face on, nothing can stop him. Steve Duckett is a profound careful listener, a strategic thinker and a true human being. He just doesn't consider you a simple client. Steve goes beyond to see you as human without race, or religion, or education profile (in my experience), but rather a friend to fight for. The MAN took his private time on a Sunday to travel hours to my residence without charge just to ensure my family is fully prepared and understood the situation, the possible outcomes and our options. nnSteve was able to get through to the judge, the jury whom on multiple occasions were wondering why we were even in the courtroom to begin with. He is very professional with experience. I highly recommend Steve Duckett.

Steve Ducket represented my son in two separate reckless driving tickets, one of which involved an accident and driving without a license (he only had a permit at the time). In both cases, my son walked out of court with a clean driving record. I recommend Steve because he is honest and will get you the results that he says he will.

I recently received a reckless driving citation for traveling 80MPH in a 55MPH zone. After my online research revealed the severity of this charge, I was terrified. The long term cost of increased insurance rates and the potential danger to my security clearance led me to the decision to "lawyer up". I narrowed my search to several lawyers in my area some of whom had relatively low flat rates for a defense of this sort. I spoke with a few to included Steve Duckett . . . I knew after his consultation that he was the man for the job. nnHe was knowledgeable, frank, and courteous. He listened to my situation and described recommended actions in preparation for a defense of this charge. His demeanor, honest and confidence put me at ease and he got to work on my defense. He and his staff provided great advice assistance as we built my case file and strategy prior to the hearing. He put me at ease and provided an honest assessment of the best and worst case scenarios for the day in court. Steve obviously knows his way around the courtroom and his actions exuded competence, confidence and professionalism. nnThe end result is that my charges were dismissed and I was only required to pay the court costs. My insurance and security clearance were unaffected. The old adage you get what you pay for was definitely true in my case. Although your defense with Steve may cost a little more than some of the others ? you will be pleased with the result! I highly recommend Steve to you as I would to friends and family.n

I can not say enough about Steve Duckett. He is kind, compassionate, and very knowledgeable. I was very happy with the outcome of my case. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney. A good friend of mine has used him and is very happy as well. Thanks so much Mr Duckett for what all that you did for me!
