Why do I need a traffic lawyer?

Navigating the courts, the police and the law can be a daunting process.  The law surrounding traffic offences is complex and being convicted of traffic offences can have long-lasting impacts on you and your family.  

Aside from lengthy disqualification periods, some traffic offences carry a maximum penalty of imprisonment, if convicted. 

Our experienced Brisbane based traffic and drink driving lawyers understand the freedom and importance that your licence provides you and your family.  We put the hard work in so that you can get back on the road as soon as possible and move on with your life.

Traffic lawyers can assist any person who is facing court or a loss of licence for any traffic offence, including:

 

  • Drink driving and driving under the influence of liquor
  • Drug driving and driving under the influence of a drug
  • Disqualified driving
  • Unlicensed driving
  • Dangerous driving and careless driving
  • Hooning
  • Evading police
  • Speeding

 

An experienced traffic lawyer can also speak with you about your option to apply for a work licence or special hardship order in some circumstances.

If you are facing court, it is important to have an experienced traffic and drink driving lawyer by your side who can assist you with the process, defend your rights and help you achieve the best outcome possible in the circumstances, given how seriously the courts take these charges.  The Brisbane based traffic lawyers at Coates Davey Solicitors work with you every step of the way and break down the process, so you know what to expect and how best to prepare.
