Traffic Violations & Serious Traffic Offenses
Traffic violations in California can range from relatively minor infractions to more serious misdemeanor and felony offenses. Depending on the charge and circumstances, a traffic case may affect your driving record, driver's license, insurance, employment, and, in more serious cases, may expose you to criminal penalties.
California Law Centers, APC. represents clients facing serious traffic violations and criminal traffic charges throughout San Diego, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties.
Types of Traffic Violations
Traffic-related cases can involve a wide range of allegations, including:
- Excessive Speed and Speeding Violations
- Reckless Driving
- Hit and Run
- Driving on a Suspended or Revoked License
- Driving Without a Valid License
- DUI and DUI-Related Offenses
- Traffic Offenses Involving an Accident or Injury
- Other Misdemeanor and Criminal Traffic Offenses
The potential consequences depend upon the specific charge, your driving history, and the circumstances surrounding the alleged violation.
Serious Speeding & Reckless Driving Cases
Some traffic cases involve much more than an ordinary citation. Allegations involving excessive speed, reckless driving, an accident, or other aggravating circumstances may result in a mandatory court appearance or criminal charges.
If you are facing a serious traffic matter, it is important to understand the charge and potential consequences before deciding how to proceed.
How We Can Help
California Law Centers can review the citation, police reports, driving record, and circumstances surrounding the alleged violation and explain the legal options available to you.
Depending upon the case, our representation may include:
- Court Representation: Representing clients in court proceedings when appropriate and advocating for their interests.
- Review of the Evidence: Examining the citation, police reports, available video or other evidence, and circumstances surrounding the traffic stop or incident.
- DMV Issues: Evaluating driver's-license consequences and related DMV matters when applicable.
- Negotiation and Resolution: Communicating with the appropriate prosecuting agency or court and pursuing the best available resolution based upon the facts and circumstances of the case.
- Legal Guidance: Explaining the charges, potential consequences, court procedures, and available options so that our clients can make informed decisions.
DUI & DMV Matters
If your traffic matter involves a DUI arrest, remember that the criminal court case and the DMV administrative proceeding are separate.
You may have only 10 days following a DUI arrest to request a DMV administrative hearing.
California Law Centers handles both DUI criminal defense and related DMV administrative hearings.
