I was so thankful for this law firm when my son had his accident. Sally was a gem and David was able to have the citation dismissed. We are grateful for no points. I highly recommend this law firm!

I can say from firsthand experience that the Schweppe Law Firm is professional, responsive, highest of quality and value when you need positive results. David Schweppe handled a driving citation for me that could have caused points on my license and insurance which in turn would have raised my rates. He told me from the start that he was going to bat for me and had my back no matter what... And he did just that! The case ended in a dismissal of charges and no fine and cost of court, and for that I'm forever grateful to him and his team. In closing I'll say if you ever need an attorney who gets

My daughter had received a ticket for what the police deemed an unsafe movement. After The Schweppe Law Firm was able to explain the situation to the district attorney, All charges were dropped. This means we owe nothing else and no points or penalties for insurance. Every time I called, everyone was professional and seemed to care about this case. I would definitely recommend them to others!

This law firm was awesome. They knew exactly what they were doing and knew exactly what the police in Shelby are doing. Setting speed traps right when you get off the interstate and just writing tickets all day. The officers also seem to tack on as much as possible but this law firm knows exactly how to handle them. A++++++++, F- for Shelby police for just trying to rob people instead of protecting and serving.

I reached out to The Schweppe Law Firm to assist with a traffic violation I received, as they had come highly recommended by a family member.
My first interaction was with Ms. Sally Lewis, and she was extremely helpful. She was professional and courteous, explaining all details to me regarding what I could expect from attorney David Schweppe.
Sally explained the fees, and I was impressed with how my case would be handled. I would not have to miss any time away from work, as Mr. Schweppe would be appearing on my behalf. All court fees and costs associated with my case were reasonable, and it was

Great law firm to work with. I had three closings there this past December and was very impressed with their communication and attention to detail. We had to have a survey done for the property and it also it was an estate. Very helpful.

I contacted several law offices after getting a ticket for speeding and reckless driving. Schweppes was by far the most friendly and easiest to work with. It is pricey but highly worth it considering that did all the hard work. All I was required to do was pay and complete an online driver’s education course. Once that was completed, they held all my info until the court date. I was notified the day of the court appearance that my reckless driving charge was dismissed and my speed was reduced, as promised. I no longer have to worry about points on my license and insurance rates increasing. I

Well, I can't tell you whether they're any good or not as I was unable to speak with anyone.

They're certainly capable of 'rude'.

I left two voice mails for Ginger as instructed by the receptionist; zero response.

I sent direct email to Ginger as instructed by her voice mail; zero response.

I submitted their online contact form to John V. Schweppe III; zero response.

So thankful. This was my first experience with any event that required representation. Considering the fact that I"m not a resident of NC, I was very nervous with how to handle it but The Schweppe Law Firm made the entire process very stress free. Lois Spake, especially, was extremely helpful and pleasant in our exchanges. Very appreciative of her and the firm!

John Jr. did an awesome job taking care of some legal documents for my mother and me recently. We were able to submit feedback and have the documents altered to our satisfaction. He is very professional, accommodating and good natured. The prices were fair and consistent with "going rates" and the turnaround time for the work only took a couple of weeks.
