Speeding Tickets Come With Serious Consequences

Perhaps you were running late to a class or an appointment. Or you could have been distracted by the passengers in your car. We have all been there, and we understand how frustrating it can be to receive a speeding ticket. Most people just want to pay the ticket and forget the situation ever happened. This can be the biggest mistake you make.

By paying your ticket, you are admitting guilt. This guilt then leads to points on your driver’s license, skyrocketing insurance premiums, and a criminal record. The North Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) could immediately suspend your driver’s license.

You may also be pleading guilty to other crimes you were not aware of, such as reckless driving, which come with excessive fines, longer driver’s license suspension and potentially time in jail. If this happens to be your third moving violation in one year, you could be facing an automatic one-year revocation of your driver’s license.

Do not face these harsh consequences without experienced legal representation by your side.

We Know How to Protect Your License and Your Record

Attorneys  have extensive experience providing speeding ticket defense to clients in the Greensboro area. They know the approach to take depending on what county you are in. For instance, we can seek to get your speeding ticket reduced to a non-moving violation.

White collar crimes are generally classified as felonies, and these carry significant legal consequences. They most often involve money violations in a business setting. Punishment and sentencing vary with the amount of money involved, along with the accused’s intent, criminal record and other factors.

White collar crimes almost always carry the real possibility of jail time. Job loss, difficulty obtaining new employment and fines also often result. A skilled white collar crime attorney knows how to provide experienced and knowledgeable criminal defense to minimize your punishment and keep your record clear.

Experienced White Collar Crime Legal Defense.

We have defended numerous clients facing white collar crime charges. Attorney  has defended people charged with crimes for over seven years and he is familiar with local courts, judges and district attorneys, as well as successful criminal defense techniques.

We can determine facts regarding your background and alleged violation that can lead to dismissal of charges or lenient sentencing. A primary component of white collar criminal defense is the willingness and ability to pay back money alleged to have been acquired illegally. If you are able to pay the money back, sentencing can be significantly reduced. If you are currently unable, but have the means to earn it back, we can argue for probation so that you are free to earn the money needed to make restitution.

If you have been accused of a white collar crime, call us. White collar crimes include:

• Identity theft
• Wire and mail fraud charges
• Counterfeit goods
• Forgery, extortion, blackmail and bribery
• Tax fraud
• Credit card violations
• Check, bond and currency violations

Fortunately, misdemeanor charges seldom lead to consequences as severe as those of felony charges. However, people accused of misdemeanors can still face prolonged incarceration, probation and fines.

If you have been accused of misdemeanors you need to take your charges seriously. You will still need to attend several court appearances, including a hearing to determine legal representation and another for your trial or plea bargain. These charges can still be added to your criminal record, causing employment, security clearance issues and other problems. Sentencing can still lead to time in jail, probation, fines, community service, treatment programs and classes, and can affect your driving privileges.
