I highly recommend Dan Fox and his amazing team for any of your legal concerns. His communication and reliability were both flawless expecially for someone like myself who has never had legal issues in the past and had tons of questions. No matter where we were on the list to see the judge he some how got us to be the first one in and first one out. I am truly grateful for Mr. Fox he literally saved my career and license, I highly recommend this man.
