Comprehensive Traffic Citation and Speeding Ticket Defense

Paying a traffic ticket is considered an admission of guilt that results in a conviction on your permanent Texas driving record. As experienced traffic ticket lawyers, the firm defends drivers against a broad spectrum of roadway and municipal citations:

• Speeding and moving violations: Challenging radar calibration, pace methods, and officer observations to seek dismissal or deferred disposition.
• Commercial driver license defense: Protecting professional truck drivers and CDL holders against severe moving violations and disqualification actions under federal and Texas commercial carrier regulations.
• Stop sign, red light, and lane violations: Evaluating intersection camera recordings and physical signage visibility to contest municipal citations.
• Driving without insurance or valid license: Resolving no-insurance tickets and driving while license invalid charges to prevent license suspensions and heavy state surcharges.

Warrant Lifting and Class C Misdemeanor Representation

Unresolved traffic citations quickly escalate into alias or capias warrants, putting motorists at risk of immediate arrest during routine traffic stops. If you need a lawyer urgently to lift an arrest warrant, Peter J. Graham posts attorney surety bonds with local municipal courts to promptly remove warrants and schedule a new court appearance, allowing clients to avoid jail time and resolve their underlying cases peacefully.

Beyond standard traffic citations, the firm provides robust defense against Class C misdemeanors and criminal charges. Respected criminal defense lawyers and theft and burglary defense lawyers at the practice represent clients accused of public intoxication, simple assault, disorderly conduct, and minor shoplifting or theft. In cases involving alcohol-related stops, skilled dui and dwi defense lawyers challenge the validity of initial traffic detentions and safeguard motorists constitutional rights.

Driver License Suspensions and Occupational Licenses

If the Texas Department of Public Safety has suspended your driving privileges due to accumulated points or administrative actions, attorney Graham represents drivers in administrative hearings and files petitions for Occupational Driver Licenses. This essential relief allows individuals to legally drive to work, school, and essential household errands while their suspension runs its course.
