Joyner + Joyner, P.C.

My eighteen-year-old daughter got a speeding ticket, her first, just north of San Antonio.  Neither my husband or I have had a speeding ticket in 25 years, so we were not sure how to proceed, although we knew we did not want to appear in court there (we live in Austin) and we did not want her to have a conviction on her record. After several frustrating attempts to reach someone at the San Antonio court by mail and e-mail (they don't have a phone number!) to tell them she would take defensive driving, a friend suggested that I call a lawyer who specializes in these things. Robert Yamanaka took my call and was extremely pleasant and professional. He offered his services at a reasonable rate, not much more than the ticket would have cost. He kept in contact with me over several attempts that he also made to contact the court, as after more than three weeks had passed, the officer had still not filed the ticket, so really nobody there really knew what was happening.Eventually, mysteriously, the officer filed the ticket as a warning, not a full citation. So, all charges were dismissed, and we didn't have to pay anything. I was prepared to eat the cost from Joyner and Joyner, as that's what I had signed on for; however, they contacted me and told me they would refund all but $50 for the original efforts to contact the court. How's that for service?  They earned my repeat business, although I hope never to have to call them again!  I hope you give them yours. More...

I would highly recommend Joyner & Joyner for anyone seeking help with a speeding or moving violation ticket in San Antonio. My attorney, Robert Yamanaka, was extremely professional, responsive, easy to communicate with, and open to answering my many questions. The office staff was also very helpful and friendly.When I was looking for an attorney in San Antonio, I called another law firm and had to leave a voicemail, and no one ever called me back. I called Joyner & Joyner and the receptionist immediately picked up and told me I would get a call back from an attorney that day. It was already nearly 3PM Central Time so I told them it was OK if they couldn't call me until the next day. But I indeed did get a call that afternoon by the attorney, Mr. Yamanaka, where we discussed the matter thoroughly and concisely by phone. The next day I got the retainer contract emailed to me for me to further review and sign. It was very clear and stated what the attorney had already discussed with me, including the fee and his going to court on my behalf. It was easy to take care of sending paper work via email and paying the fee with their online payment system.I appreciate that in addition to covering the basics of what I would expect from an attorney, Mr. Yamanaka was very experienced with San Antonio traffic court and understood the nuances of the different jurisdictions in Texas and how San Antonio was more strict.The attorney was able to satisfy my case as first described at the reasonable fee I was promised. After he went to court for me, I was emailed a final letter clearly describing the outcome of the case and the need for no further action by the attorney or myself.The hard lesson I learned is that in San Antonio, Texas you will be ticketed for not going much over a speed limit (and even when a speed limit isn't posted), and getting a ticket means you must go to court and you cannot pay the fine as doing so will put an automatic conviction on your record. My advice is that if you are traveling out of state where you are unfamiliar with the roads, take Lyft or Uber around and do not drive yourself. But if you do find yourself getting a ticket, then I recommend calling Joyner & Joyner immediately for help. More...

Early 2015 I was stopped by a county sheriff and was given 2 citations. Fast forward to today being a full time student and working full time and my court day being during finals week, I completely forgot about my court date. BAM. Hit with another citation failure to appear. These guys at Joyner worked hard to ensure these citations were off my record and ended up saving me over $500 dollars and were able to keep my record clean. To the folks that were surprised by a $150 or $200 "extra charge", it's called a retainer fee lawyers aren't free people! Besides keeping these tickets off your record saves $$$ insurance wise in the long run. Keep up the great work! Definitely recommend!! More...

Very friendly (secretary and attorney) and always available.  I have had problems in the past with other lawyers not answering their phones or following up. .....not the case with these guys at all. They took care of my speeding tickets and kept them off my record.  Definitely worth not spending all day at court! Hopefully no more speeding tickets for me ......but I would use them again.
