A General Practice Attorney Committed To Your Rights And Future

Combatting Traffic Violations

When you receive a traffic citation, you need to understand the consequences of your offense, especially if you face potentially serious penalties. For more than four decades, the attorney at the Law Offices Of Harry A. Suissa, P.C., has helped clients deal with traffic violations. Attorney Suissa knows how to develop a defense against these kinds of charges to protect your rights and license.

Building A Personalized Defense

All traffic violations are not equal, requiring customized defense strategies. Traffic infractions are minor offenses that generally involve paying a fine and accumulating points against your driving record. In addition to fines, a misdemeanor is punishable by increased driving points, loss of license and jail time.

The most serious traffic violations are charged as felonies, which can mean years in prison or time spent on probation, increased driving points and driving restrictions. Failing to pay fines and repeated violations, even if relatively minor, can result in a suspended or revoked driver’s license.

No matter how severe your charges may seem, Mr. Suissa is prepared to defend you. He is proud to defend clients throughout the English- and Spanish-speaking communities in the area, and he takes the time to work closely with all of his clients to craft personalized strategies to shield them.

Client Representation In Traffic Cases

Seeking legal advice or representation from a lawyer can help you avoid serious traffic violation consequences later down the road. If you have already arrived at the point where you face serious consequences, effective legal representation may help reduce charges, avoid jail, or allow you to keep your license.

Attorney Suissa will provide legal representation to all types of traffic violation, including, but not limited to, the following:

  • DUI/DWI
  • Vehicular manslaughter
  • Leaving the scene of an accident
  • Driving without insurance
  • Driving with a suspended/revoked license
  • Driving without a license
  • Reckless driving

He represents clients living in Maryland and Washington, D.C., as well as out-of-state drivers ticketed in the area. License suspension and revocation are subject to different laws in each state.

However, many drivers do not understand the citation they receive and consequently may shove the ticket in the glove box and neglect to pay it. When traffic tickets stack up and are not paid, you can face a bench warrant for arrest and other penalties. Mr. Suissa can help with these issues.
