Criminal Traffic Violations, including DUI

There are traffic tickets, and criminal traffic violations.

Criminal traffic violations can be confusing as many times police officers don’t actually take someone to jail for a violation. While someone is always taken to jail for Driving Under the Influence (DUI), other criminal traffic violations include, but are not limited to Reckless Driving, No Valid Driver’s License, Expired Driver’s License, Driving on a Suspended License (Knowingly), Expired Tag (more than 6 months) Leaving the Scene of an Accident, Racing, and Tag Not Assigned.

These types of violations usually require a court appearance, but can often be resolved with a lawyer negotiating a resolution prior to court. Even if no resolution is obtained prior to court, often times a lawyer can appear on behalf of the client and resolve the case without the client having to appear in court.

BRIAN TANNEBAUM?

For over two decades, his criminal practice has found him engaging in every aspect of criminal defense, including the defense of misdemeanor and felony charges in state and federal courts, and representing individuals and corporations in investigations and grand jury subpoenas. Having served as President of the Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, and a Member of the Criminal Procedure Rules Committee, he remains actively engaged in advocating on criminal justice policy, in addition to handling cases from the initial investigation, to trial, if necessary. His personal attention to his clients, as well as his dedication to the client’s best interests, are a cornerstone of his practice.
