For commercial drivers, traffic offenses can lead to a loss of their CDL, whether in a commercial vehicle or a personal vehicle, and an end to a career, which can result in a financial instability.
Even though Chesterfield traffic tickets may seem to be a minor matter, in many cases there are requirements imposed by the court that you must handle correctly or face repercussions.

The most commonly committed crime in the United States today is drunk driving. People who would otherwise never come into contact with the criminal justice system can find themselves under arrest because they have had “one too many.”
The legal limit for Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) while driving in Virginia is .08. This amount can easily be reached with as little as three beers. The penalties for drunk driving in Virginia can be numerous and severe. If you are convicted of this type of offense, you may lose your driving privileges.
We will examine the facts of your case and determine the answers to some of these key components that may impact the outcome of your case. We will:
• Explore if the arresting officer had sufficient cause to stop your vehicle.
• Determine whether the officer who performed the stop on your vehicle, properly administered the breath or blood test, as well as, the field sobriety test.
• Get evidence against you suppressed if it was in fact, unlawfully obtained.
• Depending on the specifics of your arrest and processing, we will firmly litigate a potential dismissal, not guilty verdict upon trial, or settle a favorable plea agreement that enables you to avoid a criminal conviction.
