Questions
How can I tell if my charge is criminal or traffic in Virginia?
Check your case number: 'GC' prefixes indicate criminal charges requiring legal representation, while 'GT' prefixes mark traffic offenses. Both carry significant penalties requiring professional defense.
What happens if I refuse a DUI breathalyzer test in Virginia?
Refusal triggers automatic license suspension and fines. The prosecution can still use your refusal against you in court. Consult an attorney immediately to challenge the charges.
What are first-time marijuana possession penalties in Virginia?
First offense with less than half ounce carries up to 30 days jail, $500 fine, and license suspension. Deferred disposition options may be available through court probation programs.
Why hire a trial attorney after a serious accident?
Insurance companies often undervalue claims. Our experienced attorneys negotiate fair compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering from negligent parties.
Can traffic stop evidence be challenged in court?
Yes. We examine if officers had proper probable cause for stops. Illegally obtained evidence may be suppressed, potentially reducing or dismissing charges.
