Speeding and Traffic Citations

Let Us Help You Fight a Speeding Ticket

While speeding and traffic citations do not carry the same potential implications as a criminal offense, the consequences can still be life-altering, especially for individuals who have special endorsements on their driver’s licenses and/or need a driver’s license to maintain their employment. We have represented countless individuals in the city courts, general sessions, and criminal courts for various traffic offenses and have often been able to obtain a result that accomplishes the client’s most important goal, which is preserving their license status and ensuring their insurance rates are not increased as a result of this ticket. Throughout our practice, we have been able to get traffic citations dismissed after a hearing or through negotiations with the District Attorney’s Office.

Representation on a traffic citation often includes obtaining the officer’s video footage from the traffic stop, which may be a body cam, dash cam, or both. Reviewing this video footage will allow you to ensure that the traffic offense did occur as alleged in the officer's charging instrument and will give you an irrefutable understanding of the entirety of the stop. Obtaining and reviewing these videos in detail is essential in preparing a defense for any traffic citation and where the investigation, in most cases, begins. What we can promise you in every case is that everything that can be done to assist in your defense will be done.
