Driving with Suspended License in GA

Roswell Attorney for License Reinstatement

When one’s license is revoked or suspended, driving is supposed to cease until the license is reinstated. Once driving privileges are restored, you will once again have the legal right to operate a vehicle. If one continues to drive with a suspended license he or she may be arrested and will face serious consequences and penalties. Driving with a suspended license is a serious offense and requires the assistance of a skilled defense lawyer from The Sherman Law Group.

We understand how confusing and overwhelming these charges can be and in some cases clients were not even aware that their license had been suspended until it was too late. Serious penalties including mandatory jail time and expensive fines are likely to be imposed by the court. It is considered a criminal offense and your criminal record will reflect your conviction. The prosecution will attempt to convict you, as is their duty, and having a skilled defense attorney is an urgent matter.
