Fighting Traffic Tickets to Protect Your Driver's License
Like most other states, Georgia will suspend your driver's license if you pile up too many violation points in a 12-, 18- or 24-month period. If you need advice about the best way to protect your right to drive, contact a knowledgeable traffic violations lawyer at Clark & Williams in Brunswick.

If you get pulled over for any points violation in the Brunswick area or along the I-95 corridor, talk to an attorney before you pay the ticket — or even worse, ignore it. Paying the fine is just the same as a guilty plea, and the points will pull you that much closer to a suspension. Your next moving violation might just put you over the edge.
We advise local and out-of-state drivers about the options based on the facts of the incident, the level of detail appearing in the citation, and your overall driving record. Where you got your ticket might factor into your options as well. Our objective is to find the right strategy for protecting your license on charges from speeding to DUI.
In some situations, we'll have a chance to reopen old traffic tickets to try to get them stricken from your record, but they need to be fairly fresh. It's hard to go back after violations that are more than 60 days old, and impossible to reopen tickets after 90 days.
Drivers from other states need to realize that many Georgia traffic tickets will count against your license in your home state. We can advise you about your options over the phone, and if we can help you through court action, you won't need to come back to Georgia.
While it's usually best to fight the latest violation to keep it off of your record whenever possible, we can also represent in-state drivers in administrative license suspension or reinstatement hearings.
