Traffic Offense Attorney Serving Lake County

Lake County DUI & Criminal Defense Lawyer

The penalties for traffic offenses in Lake County and surrounding areas vary depending on the specific circumstances and severity of the crime.  Many drivers may not realize that their license could be revoked for certain severe traffic violations or if they collect too many points on their driving record.  Different moving violations are assigned a point value.  Traffic crimes which caused or could cause significant injury or damage or show gross negligence on the driver's behalf are assigned much higher point values.  DUI based offenses can result in Class A misdemeanor or a variety of felony charges.  There are penalties associated with these charges that could be devastating. Lake County Criminal Defense Attorney Bernardo Isacovici is determined to protect his clients from the negative impacts of traffic offense convictions.  He may be able to help you or someone you care about avoid fines or possible jail time for a traffic offense committed in Lake County, Northern Cook County or McHenry County and nearby areas.

Attorney Bernardo has experience providing tough and aggressive defense for a variety of traffic offenses.  Below are examples of common traffic crimes for which you may need an attorney:

• Driving with a suspended license
• Driving with a revoked license
• Driving while licensed revoked for a DUI
• Speeding
• Reckless driving
• Drunk driving
• Driving without insurance
• Other moving violations

If you put too many points on your driving record or commit 3 severe moving violations in a 12 month period, your license may be revoked.  Accumulating 15 - 100 or more points on your driving record could result in a suspended license.  As an example, speeding 25mph or more above the speed limit puts 50 points on your record, reckless driving results in 55 points and so on.  In addition to the financial and personal impacts a suspended or revoked license can have, you will most likely have expensive ticket fines to pay, traffic school and other possible penalties.
