Are Traffic Offenses Criminal?
A traffic violation is a misdemeanor crime, meaning that you can be sentenced to jail time and it will appear on a criminal background check. Our attorneys are experienced at challenging the basis for the traffic stop and other evidence to avoid a conviction and all its consequences. We can also try to get violations reduced to a traffic citation. A traffic ticket is not a crime, but you may still need a lawyer. It is either a citation that can resolved by mailing in a check or a summons to appear in court on a certain date.
