A driver may face a citation for any of a number of traffic violations throughout Oakland County and Wayne County, Michigan, including on the I-75, I-696 or on the 10 Freeway. These range from relatively minor offense such as speeding all the way to DUI and hit and run. Depending on the particular offense, a driver may face only a fine or may face years of imprisonment and due to a felony conviction.

Talking to an experienced Michigan traffic ticket attorney is important if you or someone you know has received a traffic citation of any kind. Although many people may simply pay the ticket for a minor violation and may not even consider involving an attorney, there are actually a number of benefits to retaining legal counsel in these situations. At the very least, discussing the matter with a legal professional can help a driver understand the possible consequences of his or her Michigan traffic ticket and what can be done to fight it.

One of the most important points that we stress with our clients is that just because you have received a traffic ticket A) does not mean that you are necessarily guilty of the offense, and B) that you may be able to contest the violation and keep your traffic record clean.

About Michigan Traffic Violations

Depending on the circumstances of the offense, a Michigan driver may face fines, license suspension, or imprisonment for the following traffic violations:

• DUI/OWI
• Racing
• Hit and Run

If you have been stopped by a police officer for any of these offenses, it is in your best interests to talk to an attorney as soon as possible. Other types of traffic tickets that may eventually lead to license suspension or increased insurance rates include reckless driving, speeding, radar tickets, running a red light and other types of insurance violations.

Driving without a license that is valid is a very dangerous ordeal, and any person who is pulled over will most likely face serious consequences. Similar rules apply for drivers who are driving with a suspended license. These matters are very serious, and many prosecutors will treat these cases as if they are trying to teach a lesson – enhanced penalties and grave consequences will be sought. If you have gotten a ticket in Oakland County, Michigan, or a surrounding community for any type of traffic offense, do not wait to call an attorney today.

An attorney at Freedman & Freedman can help you if you or someone you know has received a citation or has been arrested for any of the above Michigan traffic violations. Our free initial consultation with an experienced lawyer offers you the valuable opportunity to find out more about your particular offense, your rights, and your options in fighting your ticket.

Why a Michigan traffic ticket lawyer?

Receiving a traffic ticket alone can have a number of negative consequences. If you pay the ticket, you are actually admitting guilt. Points may be assessed on your driving record, and this can result in increased insurance costs as well as possible driver's license suspension if you accumulate too many points in a set period of time. As such, keeping your driving record clean is an important step to take to avoid future issues.

Being convicted of a misdemeanor or felony traffic violation in Michigan can have a more severe impact on your life. You may face imprisonment in county jail or state prison, along with fines, probation, community service and driver's license suspension. These are criminal offenses, and this means that if you are convicted you will have a conviction on your criminal record. In Michigan, traffic violations of any kind, including DUI, cannot be removed from your criminal record through expungement. This means that you will have to carry the burden of a criminal record for the rest of your life. An attorney can help you avoid this in the first place, by helping you to challenge your offense from the onset.

Most often it is worth it to fight your traffic ticket or traffic offense. If you want to learn more about your choices and are interested in exploring your options in regard to fighting your ticket, contact Freedman & Freedman today. You will need an experienced Warren traffic ticket lawyer at your side to have the highest potential of avoiding a conviction and serious consequences.
