Traffic Offenses

Traffic Offenses Attorney in St. Louis

Protecting Your Driving Record & Insurance Rates

Traffic tickets are frustrating. Some have serious consequences, such as driver’s license suspension or revocation. At Cavanagh & Associates, we can deal with the court on your behalf. Our St. Louis traffic offenses lawyer will fight to protect your driving record and insurance rates. If you need legal representation for a traffic citation, contact our office to schedule a consultation.

Representation for All Traffic Matters

Traffic citations can have a range of consequences for your driving record, including license suspension, revocation, expensive fines, and increased insurance rates. In some cases, such as speeding tickets, DWI, and DWI, the penalties for the offense increase in severity with the number of subsequent offenses. For example, a person with a first citation will get a lighter penalty than a person with one or more prior convictions.

We represent clients in traffic matters that include:

  • Speeding tickets
  • Driving Under the Influence (DUI)
  • Driving While Intoxicated (DWI)
  • Driving while license is suspended
  • Driving while license is revoked
  • No insurance
  • Failure to register
  • Other traffic citations

It is important to respond to a traffic citation. Forgetting about traffic citations may result in additional fines or the court issuing an arrest warrant. It is common for people to think paying the ticket is the only option. While this may seem like the easier course of action, it can result in expensive fines, and a negative impact on your driving record or having points assessed on your driver’s license. In addition, your insurance rates may increase, especially if you have a discount for having no points on your license.

Discuss Your Options with Our Attorney

If you have received a ticket and need the advice of a St. Louis traffic offenses attorney, let us handle your traffic matter for you. We work to minimize the impact, often by having a ticket amended to a lesser charge, such as a moving violation over a speeding ticket. Our criminal defense attorney is a former prosecutor and brings more than 50 years of legal experience to your case.

Don’t wait to get the legal advice you need. Call (314) 309-2799 to schedule a consultation.

    "I highly recommend him"
    Jack took over my divorce case and made a seemingly endless divorce process (nearly 4 years with mediation, continuances and a former atty.) come to a quick and agreeable settlement. Jack is an effective and seasoned attorney that made easy work of the negotiations. He is respectful and concerned for his clients. His associates were friendly and helpful, ensuring that all paperwork was completed in a timely and accurate fashion. I highly recommend him if you are going through a difficult divorce.

    "I've worked with Jack on two separate occasions and both times I felt that he not only had my best interest in mind but was going to bat on my behalf. "
    I would highly recommend setting up a consultation with Jack regarding your legal matters as he certainly goes above and beyond for his clients.

    "The best there is in the Biz"
    Jack has been a lawyer for a long time. He values his clients and sees them as people with individual circumstances, and not just dollar bills like other attorneys. Anyone that knows anything about the law knows it’s about making and keeping good rapport with all parties involved. And for a defense attorney, being familiar with the judge to the prosecutor and being on a friendly basis with them is exceptionally important. And Jack knows everyone! He should as he’s been doing this for probably over 40 years. He’s not only a great attorney but I consider him a friend. Don’t make the mistake of choosing an unknown rookie attorney who may be a couple bucks cheaper. Choose Jack!
