Initially, it left me in a Frustrated position due to Law Enforcement and the Legal System. After speaking with Mr. Riddell, I felt like I "short changed" him regarding his professional abilities. I owe him an apology, and am grateful for his willingness to assist me. Mr. Riddell was very apologetic for not getting back with me, and looked at every Positive Avenue to assist me. He is very assertive and proactive, and I can't ask for anything more. ***Initial Post*** This is just another "lawyer" that over sells his ability! Terrified of the TRUTH about the "Legal System"... I wouldn't trust this guy to deal with parking ticket!! read less

I was able to speak with Douglass within 2 hours of contacting his firm. He was polite, professional, and took the time to gather the details. Most importantly, he must have connections and great skill in practicing law. He not only had the bench warrant lifted, but had my case dismissed in 36 hours. A huge thank you to his entire team. Looking at other attorneys in the Franklin County area, his pricing is much lower too! I would recommend Riddell Law if you are in a bind and need a competent attorney to represent you. Well done! read less

However, Mr. Riddell put me at ease by his clear understanding of my situation and concerns. I immediately engaged him as an advocate. He then immediately began to work on my behalf.

Mr. Riddell appeared in court for me, so I did not have to take off work, I am a CDL driver. Mr Riddell listened to every word I had to say, he ultimately got me off on the charges and no points were put on my licences, which would have sffected my employment. Mr. Ridell is the best attorney that I have eer dealt with. His fees are very reasonable. I highly recomend him. read less

I have had to use a few attorneys in the past, and I have learned that some lawyers don’t really care what happens to you as long as they get their money. They just want to get things done as quickly as possible and move on, not Doug. He could not be more opposite.I was extremely impressed with how diligently he worked on my case. Before hiring Doug, I spoke with two other traffic lawyers, but after a few minutes on the phone with Doug, I was convinced he was the best person for my case...and I was right. I had a pretty high speeding ticket, and I didn’t really think it would be possible to have it dismissed, but was hopeful of just avoiding the points. Between my clean driving record, and Doug’s knowledge and multiple trips to court, he got it dismissed, and I just had to pay court costs and $20 for a driving course which I’m glad I took. I learned a lot more than I thought, and it has impacted how I see driving and the way I drive.On the phone, Doug told me a few things to expect, and the expectations he gave me were realistic. He told me he would shop my case around with different prosecutors until he found the right one, and after three trips to court, he did exactly that. He always called me after each trip to court to update me, and I was blown away when he told me he got my case dismissed. Zero points and nothing on my record. There could not have been a better outcome, and I am certain a lot of lawyers would have only went once, and whatever they could get quickly is what I would have ended up with.He is very responsive, extremely knowledgeable, diligent and committed, excellent with communication, he does every single thing he says he is going to do and does it when he says, and his fees are really reasonable. Both of the guys I spoke to were more expensive, but they seemed to care less about the outcome, and they seemed a lot less willing to actually fight for my case, not to mention they didn’t seem like the knew nearly as much about these types of things as Doug. It was not the price that convinced me to hire him, it was how he presented everything to me and just how he was. I would have gladly paid double or more than what I paid for his services. He was worth penny. I’ve never felt that about any other attorney ever. Some have just been huge wastes of money even if they cut their prices in half. Doug isn’t out to gouge people and his moral and integrity are high.I don’t care how much you think you’re out of luck, hire this man! You will be much better off if you do. Granted, there are a lot of variables, but with Doug on your side, I know you’ll get the best outcome you can with him working for you.Thank you so much Doug for all of your hard work and dedication and being a class act. read less

My insurance was going increase and with teenage drivers on my policy...it was not looking good. However that is when I found Riddell Law. Doug called me back in 5 minutes and took it from there. My ticket was dismissed and I just paid court costs. Bottom line I learned my lesson to watch my speed and not exceed the limit. Riddell Law eased the pain of that lesson. I just could not be more pleased with the service and outcome. I highly recommend Riddell Law. read less

I went through the city with a Hazmat load and what a mistake. I was facing a very large fine and possible jail time. Mr Riddell assured me that he could get it down to a small fine and possibly nothing on my CDL. He did that exactly, Traffic control device citation dismissed and a small $100 fine + court costs for the local environmental summons and that was it. He had to go to two court dates and was very good at keeping me informed on what was going on. I want to also mention his price was outstanding, and I would definitely use him if needed in the future and you should also. read less

We hired Riddell Law to help when my daughter received a ticket and her court appearance would be when we were out of town. We didn't want her to go through the experience alone. The initial price quote was very fair. When he saw the ticket and my daughter's written explanation of what happened, he lowered the price even farther saying it wouldn't be that hard to take care of. Although it was easy from our side, it wasn't as easy as he thought, but he patiently waited and worked on it along with his other cases until it was satisfactorily resolved. If we hadn't had representation, she would have had a very negative experience. To be honest, my gut instinct was to pay and get on with our lives, but since she was required to appear, we decided to hire Riddell Law. I'm very glad we did. read less

The sad thing about mandatory DV protocol is if there is the smallest inkling that someone made physical contact someone is going to jail for the night. Or in my wife's case a holiday weekend. Even though there was nary a scratch by the person making the complaint. People know this police protocol and use it as a weapon against unsuspecting defendants to put them in jail after provoking an incident and escalating it enough to bring a charge. Luckily for us, we did our homework. Saw the good reviews for Doug Riddell. His price and advice was fair and concise. After hiring him we followed his instructions to the letter and the case was dismissed for insufficient evidence. Would highly recommend him for any criminal prosecution attempt. He kept us informed about the case and was always on time to represent us. read less

Was ticketed for environmental misdeamnor-which could have carried jail time & large fine and failure to obey traffic device-(sign) which was a 2pt violation. He called and kept in contact with me-not some secretary. He even called me on the weekend. He went to both court hearings for me. He closed the case w/no pts on my license, the traffic device ticket was dropped and the other only had a $100 fine and can be expunged in a year. Impressed with his communication and peofessionalism. Very reasonable fees for his service! Highly recommend! read less

I was in an accident and refused the breathalyzer, an action which carries an automatic 1 year license suspension if convicted. I met with Mr. Riddell and he could not have been more helpful or encouraging. After several court dates in which he continued to work with the prosecution on a deal he was able to get a plea worked out. The OVI was reduced to reckless driving and the paraphernalia charge was waived. Additionally I was not required to attend any sort of weekend class for driving and I had no driving restrictions at all! My license was fully reinstated the same day as my court appearance. The only penalty was the minimum fine for the reckless driving charge plus court costs. This was a first offense for me but I could not have hoped for a better result. Mr. Riddell charges a flat rate in most cases and it was much more affordable than all of the other OVI attorneys I looked at. Needless to say I am ecstatic with the representation I received and I highly recommend Mr. Riddell for all driving related issues. read less

Within minutes of submitting a "more information request form" on his website, he called me and discussed my case. After hearing my case, he told me what he was able to do and made it clear what the costs would be with his flat fees before signing any paperwork. Once hired, he handled everything professionally and quickly and, within 2 weeks, my case was dismissed. I hope I never need his services again but he will be the first person I call if I do. read less

A 2pt offense which would have caused my insurance to increase. I explained the situation to him and that I hoped to get it reduced to a 0pt offense. He was confident he could do that for me, which relieved my stress. A few days later, he called to let me know it was reduced to a 0pt offense. Case closed. Cheaper fine and no worry of my insurance going up. If my driving record were a little better, I'm certain he could have gotten the charge dismissed all together! The process was quick and painless! No need for me to drive downtown, find parking, wait in a lobby for hours until my case is called and then trying to plan a good defense for myself. Avoiding that hassle was well worth his flat rate ($150). And the outcome made it all the better!Should I (or family/friends) need a defense for any traffic related deal, I'll be certain to call him again. I wish I had used him in the past! read less

Doug explained his flat fee and what he thought he could do for us. He prepared us for the worst but in the background was working with prosecutors to help get the charges reduced. He has working relationships with local prosecutors that make him extremely effective. He managed to get the charges reduced and literally gave my son a second chance. I have never worked with a lawyer before but Doug made the process easy. He was available when we needed him and always returned calls or text. I can't say enough about how pleased we were with him. read less

A few days before my court date for a speeding ticket I thought I should see if a lawyer could help. I wasn't expecting much on short notice, but I tried Riddell on the recommendation of a friend. Within hours of my initial email (Christmas Eve)I was on the phone with the lawyer that got my ticket dismissed with fines removed. I'll definitely try not to get another ticket. If I do get another ticket, I'll call Mr. Riddell right away. read less

I found Doug online after receiving a traffic ticket in a speed trap area near downtown Columbus that I didn't think was fair since the officer pulled me over right before the sign changed speeds. Not even a full day later after entering my information on the site did Doug reach out to me to hear my side of the story and take on my case. I actually couldn't reach out to Doug until Day 7 of my 10 days until my court appearance and Doug helped me navigate how to get an extension so that he could review and work on my case. He gave me clear instructions on what to send him and then clearly stated what he thought he could do for me after reviewing. Doug is great at what he does and his predictions more than came true.His price is more than fair (believe me I received some crazy offers from other lawyers in the mail).I would recommend Doug to anyone who needs his services and I would use him in the future as well if needed (although I don't anticipate receiving any more speeding tickets anytime soon)! read less

I entered my info on his website on a Saturday morning, and that same afternoon (on a Saturday!) I got a call back from him.Nice guy. Good guy. Very clear communicator. Told me what he thought he could do for me, but set my expectations rationally. His price was fair, and his fee was fixed regardless of whether it took him one court appearance in the township Mayor's Court or if we needed to transfer (appeal) it in to the county court. As it turned out, we needed to transfer it. So Doug worked on the case for about 5-6 weeks, all for his fair fixed fee. In the end he was able to do exactly what he thought he would.I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER.Doug is a really good guy (not something you'll often hear about an attorney). He does what he says he will. He's a clear communicator, he sets expectations clearly, then he follows up and follows through.I hope I don't need him again soon, but if I do, I'm 1000% positive who I'll call.If you need a traffic attorney, and I hope you don't, Doug Riddell has my STRONGEST recommendation and endorsement. read less
