Call 863.686.0975 to speak to Lakeland Traffic Ticket Defense Lawyer, Gail Cheatwood about your legal needs.

While being cited for a traffic ticket violation may not carry the threat of a traffic crime conviction, many people find themselves overlooking or forgetting about the infraction as they go about their busy lives. What these people do not realize is that failure to pay the imposed fine or show up on the designated court date may make matters even worse.

Failure to pay the imposed fine or failure to appear in court can be serious enough to leave lasting consequences, such as the potential suspension of your driving privileges, increase of insurance rates and potential for jail time if you are pulled over for driving on a suspended license.

An experienced traffic violation attorney & lawyer will ensure you are fully aware of your legal rights and options for your defense regarding the citation or ticket you have been issued. When it is not possible to have the case dropped, The Law Office of Gail Cheatwood, P.A., will aggressively protect your rights and prove your innocence regarding your traffic infraction, also commonly called a traffic violation, traffic citation, traffic ticket, or speeding ticket.

Points against your drivers license are typically added for moving violations. While these traffic violations typically do not carry the possibility of jail time, they may still carry substantial fines. Traffic infractions may also cause your car insurance rates to go up and may result in a driver's license suspension if you have multiple offenses.

Driver’s license suspension guidelines: (need to check statute)

  • Lose 12 points within a 12-month period, suspension is 30 days
  • Lose 18 points within an 18-month period, suspension is 3 months
  • Lose 24 points within a 36-month period, suspension is 1 year

Point loss is cumulative and does not start over once a suspension is served. For example, you could lose your license for 30 days, get 6 more points and be ordered to serve the 3 month suspension. Our team is ready to help you hold onto your license.
