Traffic Violations

If you have been recently charged with a traffic citation or driving related offense, you need to know your rights and you should contact Anglin Law Firm, PLLC. The most important thing to remember is that you should never simply mail in your payment of the fine. This is the same as pleading guilty. Depending on your circumstances this can result in an increase in your car insurance payments or even worse a suspension of your license. Anglin Law Firm can often get a traffic charged reduced or dropped depending on your driving record. North Carolina does not have the public transportation system that other areas have. As such, losing your license is an incredible burden on you, your friends, and your family. It can jeopardize your job, your personal life, and your family stability. Do not risk losing your license or an increase in your insurance rates. You need to retain the services of a lawyer to obtain the best possible outcome for yourself and your family. Anglin Law Firm handles the tickets listed below and many other traffic matters:

If you have received a traffic violation, it is important to understand the law and how it may apply to you. Anglin Law Firm  welcomes the opportunity to assist you and help you understand the traffic violations you are facing.  Please contact us at 919-803-1516 to schedule an appointment with us.

DWI

A DWI arrest is a wake-up call for many drivers. At Anglin Law Firm, PLLC, we will help you understand the possible defenses that may be available to you. Anglin Law Firm will help you understand what will happen in the legal system so that you can anticipate what to expect when we go before the judge.  When you work with Anglin Law Firm, we will analyze and understand the evidence available in your case.

People who have been accused of DWI (often called “DUI”) are often worried about facing jail time. North Carolina law recognizes five levels of DWI. Each one of these carries different consequences. For example, for a level one DWI, a minimum sentence is 30 days. In many cases, Anglin Law Firm can keep a client out of jail even on a Level 1 or Level 2 offense where an active jail sentence is mandatory. Consequences may also include community service, fines, alcohol assessment and follow through with recommended treatment. The consequences you may face in your situation depend on many factors. Prosecutors and judges may consider prior DWIs. They may also consider your blood alcohol content (BAC) at the time of the incident. In North Carolina, BAC for driving while intoxicated is .08, and higher levels may affect your case negatively.

“Will I lose my driver’s license?” This is a common question for people arrested for DWI. While you may face a suspended license, Anglin Law Firm may be able to protect your interests by getting a temporary driving privilege allowing you to drive while your license is under a period of suspension.

If you are facing a DWI charge, it is important to understand the law and how it may apply to you. Anglin Law Firm welcomes the opportunity to assist you and help you understand the charges you are facing.  Please contact us at 919-803-1516 to schedule an appointment.
