Newport News, Virginia, Traffic Violations Lawyer
Newport News, Virginia, Traffic Violations Lawyer
As a Newport News traffic ticket lawyer, I help hundreds of people every year who face trouble like fines, drivers license suspension, even jail time, from traffic violations and drunk driving charges in the Newport News / Hampton, Virginia, area.
I provide legal representation to out-of-town visitors caught in speed traps, college freshmen charged with underage drinking, and active duty or retired members of the military pulled over for drunk driving.
In my criminal defense law practice, I defend people on these and other traffic violations and motor vehicle offenses:
Moving Violations
Every time you're found guilty of a moving violation, you rack up "points" that count against your driving privilege and your insurance rating. A few points and your insurance will go up. Too many points (18 in one year, 24 in two years) and your driver's license will be suspended.

Virginia strictly enforces its drunk driving laws.

Facing Charges as a Habitual Offender?
A habitual offender is someone who has a number of traffic offenses, including drunk driving, within ten years. The offenses may not even be serious, but the "habitual offender" label certainly is.
