WHAT SOME CLIENTS SAY ABOUT ANTHONY MONTAGNA, III

  • “I can’t thank Mr. Montagna enough for what he did for me. I was facing a Class 1 misdemeanor for reckless driving and a separate charge for no insurance—both serious charges that could’ve followed me for years. He got the reckless charge reduced to improper driving and got the no insurance charge completely dismissed. I walked out of that courtroom with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. From day one, he made it clear that he genuinely cares about his clients. He took the time to understand my situation, walked me through the process step by step, and fought hard for the best possible outcome. With over 30 years of experience, he knew exactly how to handle my case—and it showed. He’s not just an attorney—he’s a real person who treats you with respect and makes you feel heard. One thing I will say to anyone thinking about hiring him: do everything he asks you to do. He knows what he’s doing, and if you follow his guidance, you’ll give yourself the best shot at a great result. Our entire family is beyond grateful. He’s worth every penny, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else to handle something this serious. If you need real representation from someone who truly cares, this is the firm to call.”
  • “I am not a current client of Mr. Montagna, however I can say that he is not only a great lawyer, but a great person. He spent a lot of time with me discussing my reckless driving case and was patient in answering my questions, giving his opinion and advice and even giving me additional tips to help with my case. He definitely went above and beyond and I would recommend him to anyone looking for representation.”
  • “If I could give 6 stars I would! Mr. Montagna was the attorney we needed for the traffic violation! Our case was dismissed in under a minute and I thank God and Mr. Montagna for representing us!”
  • “Mr. Montagna did an excellent job for me. From the get-go, he was straightforward, honest and clear about what I needed to do to position myself for the best outcome in court. I followed his advice, took the recommended steps and it paid off with a very positive result. He’s also easy to reach – he answers calls right away or gets back to you immediately, which is refreshing in today’s world of texts and emails. On the day of court, he took the time to prep me on the proceedings and what to expect. He was proactive and made sure my case was heard first. All in all, it was a great experience given the circumstances.”
  • “Excellent attorney, best in the area hands down. Very professional, thorough and always accessible. Follow his instructions for the best possible outcome.”
  • “Honestly , Mr. Montagna treats like you are his family the way he cares, he takes care of his people , I was doing triple digit speed on a 60 and lord I thought it was over for me in that courtroom , he’s a genius because I literally got away with no time .. he’s that man!”
  • “Thanks to Mr. Anthony Montagna and his team for getting my case dismissed today. I really appreciate it”
  • “I had a reckless driving case today doing 95 in a 60 and added with unsafe lane change. He helped me walk out with a $100 fine before court costs. I highly recommend Mr. Montagna to be your lawyer and I highly recommend you do the stuff he requests you do to. It’ll help you out a lot. I would hire him again in a heart beat. Thank you Mr. Anthony Montagna for helping me with my reckless driving case”
  • “Anthony Montagna is absolutely one of the best if not THE BEST lawyer for reckless driving, I chose him because he had great reviews and when we sat down and talked he showed me all that I needed to get done and showed that he cared. He is very concise and aggressive and represents you in the best way possible. I had a reckless driving ticket from going 92/65 and he got it dropped to a defective equipment violation. He represented me in the very best way possible and was very quick and informative about the whole process. I wish I could give more stars, if you have a reckless driving charge, this is the guy.”
  • “Mr. Montagna represented me today and achieved the best possible outcome….dismissal of charges! My case was Reckless Driving (91 in a 65) along I-64. As a military service member and VA non-resident, I was unaware of the seriousness of a RD charge (class I misdemeanor punishable by up to 1 yr in jail and $2500 fine). Following charges I consulted with 4 different lawyers and decided to go with Anthony because of his approach during our consult. He emphasized the seriousness of the charge, made no guarantees regarding an outcome, and described to me in detail what our defense strategy should be on the day in court. He outlined a series of tasks I should complete prior to the court appearance that would give me the best possible chance at a favorable outcome. I quickly related with his candor and demeanor, and felt early in our consult the comfort in a lawyer that I was looking for. I followed his recommendations to the detail and went well above the community service hours he initially recommended (when it comes to community service, clearly more is better)! Mr. Montagna and his staff were extremely responsive whenever I had questions! I think I appreciated that part the most because this entire situation proved rather stressful considering I had absolutely no experience with the judicial system before this experience. His performance in court was just as impressive! He presented my defense with calm and poise. He guided me through a line of questioning before the Judge that displayed that I both took the charges seriously and worked hard to atone. The experience overall was rather humbling, and I appreciate greatly Anthony’s representation throughout!! If you find yourself in a bind, you’d do well to give Mr. Montagna a call!”
  • “Anthony Montagna was a huge help, He took his time and spoke personally with me on my case and he got me the best results on my case. I highly recommend!!”
