Can a Lawyer Help Protect My License After a Serious Traffic Charge?

Yes. A serious traffic charge can put your driving privileges at risk through points, mandatory or discretionary suspension, and Motor Vehicle Commission consequences. Driving while suspended, leaving the scene, reckless driving, and eluding all carry different license risks. Multiple points can also trigger surcharges and further suspension issues.

Matthew Cohan and his team evaluate the charge and the likely effect on your license before deciding how to proceed. They challenge weak evidence, seek dismissals or reductions, and negotiate for lesser violations when the facts support it. 

The Law Offices of Matthew Cohan offers a free confidential consultation to discuss the charge and the steps needed to protect your driving privileges.
