I have been practicing law in Michigan for over 25 years, specializing in handling traffic offenses for individuals and truck drivers.
The Michigan Secretary of State’s role in the Driver License Compact is to share information about driving records, convictions, and other relevant details with other member states. This allows for the reporting of traffic violations between states.
If you are a truck driver and receive a traffic ticket in Michigan that carries points, it will most likely appear on your home state’s driving record—even if you reside in Canada.
No Need to Appear for Most Civil Infractions
Most courts allow me to appear on your behalf for civil infraction tickets, as long as you give me permission to do so. I am always available by cell phone to update you and involve you in the negotiations.
Many traffic offenses carry points that will appear on your driving record. This can make it more difficult—or even impossible—to seek or maintain employment, and it will increase your insurance premiums.
Depending on the type of traffic violation, you may face significant fines, points on your record, or even jail time for traffic misdemeanors or felonies.
The best way to understand the potential consequences of your traffic offense is to call me for a free consultation—either in my office or by phone.
I primarily handle traffic offenses in the following counties:
