Traffic Violations

When you know you will be headed to court, you need to have an attorney review the facts of your case with you and give you an idea of where those facts place you regarding the law. You can then make an informed decision on what you should do. Donald A Denton has witnessed defendants plead guilty to traffic offenses that could easily be reduced to a lesser offense. You need an attorney who understands subtleties in how a violation is routinely handled by the prosecutors and the courts.

Knowing When You Need an Attorney

In any case that begins with the police stopping a vehicle, the circumstances that led to that stop are often the most important facts bearing upon you winning or losing in court. Your best course of action is to write everything down in chronological order, as soon as possible, never think that happened and every statement that anyone made concerning the events of the arrest. Writing organizes your thoughts better than reciting them. Your memory becomes less precise with every minute passing after the event. You should see an attorney promptly.

Finding a Good Attorney You Can Trust

With all the facts at our disposal, we can determine where the potential weaknesses are in the case against you. Then Donald A Denton formulates a plan to bring out the weaknesses and present them as evidence at trial. It is our job to make sure that evidence is heard or seen despite the rules of evidence. If our attorney does not have all the facts available, often any exploitable factors are missed. Your interview with an attorney needs to be thorough and in as much detail as can be pulled from your memory. You should look for an attorney that sees both conclusions but is willing to and capable of logically and methodically attaching the prosecutor’s facts as being open to more than one interpretation, an interpretation that supports a not-guilty verdict. Choose Donald A Denton to support you in traffic court. Call us today at 804-672-1201 to schedule a consultation.
