DeKalb County Traffic Ticket Lawyer

Throughout my experience as a DeKalb County traffic ticket attorney I realize that most people do not understand that almost every Georgia traffic citation is a misdemeanor criminal offense subject to punishment of up to 12 months in jail, and fines of up to $1,000. A DeKalb County traffic ticket means you are facing fines, classes, points on your Georgia drivers license, increased insurance rates, personal time spent in court, and even possibly jail time in certain rare circumstances.

How Can a DeKalb County Traffic Ticket Attorney Help You?

  1. A DeKalb County traffic violation lawyer can explain to you clearly the nature of your traffic violation, what the minimum and maximum punishment is for the charge, and discuss any and all defenses to your DeKalb County traffic citation.

  2. Defenses can include a defective citation, inadequate evidence, unavailable witnesses, and failure to prove the traffic violation beyond a reasonable doubt.

  3. A DeKalb County traffic citation attorney can appear in court on your behalf for most preliminary matters saving you the need to appear in court multiple times as your case is moving forward.

  4. A DeKalb County traffic ticket attorney can speak to the prosecutor on your behalf to work on getting your charges dismissed or reduced prior to court.

  5. An attorney has the training, knowledge, and experience to correctly prepare your case for trial if that is how you would like to resolve your citation.
