Tennessee Criminal Lawyer Blog

Tennessee Traffic Lawyers know how important a clean driving record can be. If you receive a moving traffic violation, you risk losing your drivers license, paying high fines, and steep increases in your insurance premiums. In some extreme cases, you could even face the possibility of jail time. Our Tennessee traffic citation attorneys handle all types of moving violations in the East Tennessee area.

You will accrue points on your driving record based upon the traffic violation committed. Points can be added for moving traffic violations, speeding, accidents, and certain criminal offenses. Some offenses are more serious and your license can be suspended or revoked if you commit one or more of the serious offenses. Our office frequently defends clients charged or cited with:

• Speeding excessively

• Improper passing
• Following to closely
• Driving a CMV without obtaining a CDL

If you receive a moving violation, be careful before you simply pay the fine. You should understand that paying the fine means that you are essentially pleading guilty to the offense.
