Traffic Court Representation

Traffic court can be intimidating, time-consuming, and costly if handled wrong. Our experienced traffic attorneys appear on your behalf, negotiate with prosecutors, and fight for the best possible outcome. We know the strategies that protect your record, license, and wallet. That means you can continue your life without missing work or worrying about the outcome. In North Carolina, most traffic violations require a court appearance, and how you handle that appearance can make a significant difference in your long-term driving record and insurance rates. A single speeding ticket or improper equipment charge that results in a conviction can add points to your license, trigger an insurance rate increase, and lead to license suspension if you accumulate enough points. Many drivers assume they have no choice but to pay the ticket and accept the consequences. An experienced traffic defense attorney can often negotiate a charge reduction, secure a prayer for judgment continued (PJC), or win an outright dismissal. Vasquez Law Firm represents clients in traffic court in 20 North Carolina counties: Cabarrus, Durham, Franklin, Gaston, Granville, Halifax, Harnett, Johnston, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Nash, Northampton, Orange, Person, Pitt, Stanly, Union, Vance, Wake, and Warren. Our attorneys can appear in court for most traffic matters without requiring you to take time off work. We handle everything from simple speeding tickets and cell phone violations to driving while license revoked (DWLR) and commercial vehicle infractions, on a flat fee quoted up front. Reckless driving and hit and run are criminal charges with narrower coverage: Johnston, Harnett and Wake (felony hit and run in Johnston and Harnett only), and in Pitt our team can connect you with a referral attorney. Our experience in North Carolina district courts helps us pursue results that are hard to obtain when you represent yourself.
