Pacific County, Washington Traffic Offenses

If you have received a citation for a traffic offense in Pacific County, Washington, you should speak to our traffic attorneys before paying your ticket. The consequences of a traffic offense ticket are more far-reaching than the penalties imposed by the court—your insurance rates and even your employment could be affected. The attorneys at Callahan Law have devoted their entire practice to representing Pacific County residents accused of a traffic violation. After reviewing the circumstances of your case, we can help you decide whether fighting your charges or paying your fine is the right decision.

The penalties you may receive from the court depend on whether you were charged with a civil or misdemeanor offense. If the charge is civil, you may be ordered to pay a fine. If the charge is a misdemeanor, the stakes are raised exponentially. You could be sentenced to jail time, increased fines, a driver’s license suspension, probation, and community service.

In addition to these court-imposed penalties, your auto insurer may increase your premium or even cancel your coverage outright after seeing a traffic violation on your driving record. If you work in an industry that requires a clean record, such as commercial trucking, chauffeuring, or the taxi cab business, you could lose your current job and lose out on future employment opportunities.

Many times our attorneys can handle your case without you having to ever appear in court. This outcome allows you to contest your citation with minimal disruption to your life. Our first strategy is to have your ticket dismissed based on the officer’s flawed police report or failure to appear in court. If this cannot be accomplished, our lawyers will investigate your case to find evidence that can be used on your behalf. For example, in the case of a speeding ticket, we may review the radar gun’s calibration records to determine if it was correct.

When fighting a traffic offense, time is of the essence. You only have a limited time to contest your ticket. Callahan Law is available 24/7 to take your case, and we offer free consultations to potential clients. Please contact our law office today to begin fighting your traffic ticket in Pacific County.
