What Can an Attorney Do?
Whether you’re trying to have a speeding ticket expunged from your record or are looking to lessen charges associated with a DUI, Brave Law Center can help. Our team has extensive knowledge of traffic law for Peoria County IL. As such, we can assist by:
-
- Negotiating with Prosecutors – Multiple offenses can put you on the verge of license suspension. Even a first-time offense is a mark on your record you’d do your best to avoid. Thus, our team can negotiate with prosecutors to prevent the worst outcomes for your traffic violation, such as steep fines, increased insurance rates, and more.
- Managing DUI Cases – For severe traffic violations, such as DUIs, it can be difficult to avoid penalties. However, depending on the circumstances surrounding your case, a lawyer can sometimes uncover evidence of an illegal vehicle stop, unreliable breathalyzer results, or undisclosed medical conditions. And if guilt cannot be disproven, we can negotiate a plea deal to reduce charges and penalties.
- License Reinstatement – Traffic violations can sometimes lead to your license being suspended or revoked. And in today’s society, operating without a driver’s license is a challenging task for most. Thankfully, there are ways to have your driver’s license reinstated. While it may require taking an alcohol/drug remedial education class or paying fees, an attorney can assist throughout the reinstatement process.
