Traffic & Criminal Law

Most traffic tickets are called "infractions." Infractions do not carry the same stigma as criminal offenses. But certain traffic offenses are categorized as "misdemeanors" or even "felonies", and can result in more significant fines, loss of driving license, or even imprisonment up to a year or more.

People accused of serious traffic violations are entitled to all constitutional protections provided to criminal defendants, including the right to a court-appointed attorney and a jury trial.

Examples of traffic misdemeanors:

  • Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs,
  • Failing to stop at the scene of an accident,
  • Driving without a valid driver's license,
  • Reckless driving.

Possession of Drugs

Drug possession arrests are occurring more and more frequently, and the penalties for convictions are becoming increasingly harsher.

Drunk Driving

Operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs is against the law in every state and such offenses are taken very seriously in a court of law. Increased awareness about the negative effects of drunk driving as well as pressure from numerous activist groups has caused law enforcement officials, judges, and politicians across the nation to make a more concerted effort toward securing convictions for those accused of drunk driving. This makes it extremely difficult for individuals charged with drunk driving offenses to receive a fair trial.

If you or someone you know has been accused of drunk driving, don't face the charges alone. A knowledgeable and experienced criminal defense attorney can ensure your rights are not violated and help reduce or dismiss your charges.
