Knoxville, Tennessee Traffic Ticket Lawyer

Lawyer for Traffic Offenses & Violations in Knoxville, TN

Police departments are increasing their focus on enforcing traffic laws across the country. In many towns and cities, traffic laws are enforced through cameras, sensors, and technological systems. Traffic tickets may be issued without a person ever being pulled over by a police officer. In these situations or in other cases where people receive "minor" traffic violations, it may seem like there is no other option than to accept the charges and pay the fines associated with a ticket. However, things can become much more serious if you receive multiple violations within a short time frame. It is even possible for your driver's license to be suspended because of the number of points that have been added to your license due to different violations.

At The Baker Law Firm, we can help you determine the best ways to address traffic tickets or other violations of traffic laws. Whether you need to respond to minor violations or more serious offenses that could result in criminal charges, we can help you understand your legal options, and we can provide you with representation in traffic court or when dealing with legal officials.

Commercial Driver's License Violations

Many people earn a living driving commercial vehicles throughout Tennessee. People with commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) are required to meet higher safety standards. As a commercial driver, you could face additional penalties for traffic violations, and you could potentially lose your CDL even if you have been convicted of a single violation.

Some penalties to your CDL may apply for traffic violations committed while driving non-commercial vehicles. A CDL violation, such as exceeding weight limits or violating regulations put in place by the U.S. Department of Transportation, can be even more serious. DUI charges can also affect a commercial driver's license, and a lower legal limit of .04 percent blood alcohol content applies when driving a commercial vehicle. We can help you maintain your ability to drive commercially and address any traffic offenses that may threaten your livelihood.
