The conquences of a conviction for Reckless Driving, a DUI or other criminal offenses in Virginia can be far reaching. In addition, the range of punishment can vary dramatically and, for better or worse, is often dependant upon the the skills and experience (or the lack thereof) of the lawyer for the accused.
My law practice specializes in traffic law and criminal defense. I handle all traffic offenses and most criminal offenses.

If you have been charged with Reckless Driving it essential that you retain an experienced traffic attorney. In Virginia, Reckless Driving is a criminal offense. It is not your garden variety traffic ticket that can be paid off with minimal consequences. Reckless Driving is a Class 1 misdemeanor. If you are convicted of Reckless Driving in Virginia, it will become a permanant part of your criminal record, your insurance costs could dramatically increase and/or your insurance carrier could drop you, and, in serious cases, there is a potential for jail time and/or a license suspension. If you are an out-of-state driver a Reckless Driving conviction may still show up on your criminal record even if it does not show up on your home state's driving record.
Fortunately, a conviction for Reckless Driving is not always inevidable. With a skillful and effective attorney, under the right circumstances, it is often possible to get a Reckless Driving charge reduced or dismissed.
