Have you been cited for speeding or other traffic violations in Charlotte, NC, Mecklenburg County area? If so, do not pay the ticket as this is an instant finding of responsibility. What that means is you’ll lose your opportunity to negotiate with the Mecklenburg District Attorney for what would likely be a much better outcome, that saves insurance increases, and in some cases could save your license! If your ticket states that “You must appear”, don’t even think about, call an experienced Charlotte traffic attorney now!

Charlotte Mecklenburg traffic violations are handled similarly to the rest of NC jurisdictions, which means the district attorney has the power, and is willing in many cases, to reduce the severity of the charge depending on the circumstances and your driving history. But like all NC jurisdictions, Mecklenburg County will have its own policies, tendencies, and quirks. Our attorneys can appear for you in Charlotte District Traffic Court, and do the negotiations for you. This is a large city with a large and busy court house. At best you’ll burn a day of your life, and you won’t know which assistant DA is best to talk to, which is key in negotiating these traffic charges.

*NC Division of Motor Vehicles is one of the strictest I’ve ever seen in the United States. By practicing in heavily trafficked tourist/business towns like Asheville and Charlotte, NC for years, I’m aware of what you can pay without an appearance in other states. NC courts handle Speeding and Traffic tickets, except for minor compliance and speeding at levels of 15mph over and lower, in District Criminal Court, and many violations are considered Class 3 misdemeanor, thus there is a mandatory appearance requirement. This means you OR your attorney must appear to handle the deal. Our DMV in NC will not hesitate to revoke your license for dozens of scenarios that would never happen in other states. Also, we can appear for you in court without issue, almost always. Let a skilled Charlotte traffic attorney handle your Mecklenburg County area traffic violation.

EXAMPLES OF SPEEDING REDUCTIONS IN CHARLOTTE:

Speeding less than 26mph over the limit in Charlotte-Mecklenburg: You may be able to get an offer for Improper Equipment Speedometer, 0 points in NC at speeds below 26mph over, however in Mecklenburg County speeds above 21mph are generally frowned upon for this bargain. Also, Prayer for Judgement may make sense for some NC licensees in this situation, depending on the circumstances.

Speeding More than 25mph over the limit & Reckless Driving in Charlotte-Mecklenburg: Depending on how severe the speed is above the limit, typically we can get a deal for an infraction level speed that will either eliminate insurance points completely, or at least mitigate that damage and save the license suspension.

Failure to stop for red light or stop sign in Charlotte-Mecklenburg: Non moving reductions which carry no points to insurance are very possible in these situations, don’t fall for the convenience of paying these waivable infractions, you’ll end up paying more liability car insurance later!

Other traffic violations: There is almost always some favorable solution for any type of traffic ticket you get in NC, e.g., leaving the scene of accident, Unsafe Movement (Fender Benders), etc.
