Traffic Crimes
A traffic crime can range from a simple speeding ticket to something much more serious like vehicular homicide. Regardless of the nature or seriousness of the crime, you need a lawyer who can fight for you.
I opened the Donald D. Cleveland, APLC law firm to defend my clients in Lafayette, Louisiana, and throughout Acadia Parish, St. Landry Parish, St. Martin Parish and Vermilion Parish against traffic violations and other criminal charges. I can meet with you during regular business hours, or weekends and evenings by appointment.
Handling Many Types of Traffic Violations and Crimes
As your attorney, I can represent you in the following traffic matters:
- Hit and run
- Reckless operation
- Careless operation
- Negligent homicide
- Vehicular homicide, which is often connected with DUI and drug charges
- Simple speeding tickets or other traffic tickets
Handling Your Case
When you hire me to defend you against a speeding ticket or more serious offense, the process usually looks something like this:
- First, I will work with you to find out the facts, to understand what happened, evaluate the case, and come up with a plan for trial or negotiations.
- Second, I will fight for you. If the state has a strong case against you, I can help you by seeking to negotiate down the charges you face with the prosecutor; and if it is in your best interest I will fight for you at trial.
- Third, I will help you find the resources you need after the case is over. For cases of drug, DWI or violent crimes, I can help you find the resources you need to turn your life around and get back on your feet; and I can help you find resources to recover from the lingering emotional effects of vehicular homicide.
Because you are more than just a case number, I think it is just as important for me to provide you with great legal representation as it is for me to connect you to the resources you need to get your life back on track.
