Driving With A Suspended License Lawyer Serving New Paltz
New York refers to the crime of driving with a suspended license as aggravated unlicensed operation (AUO). As a misdemeanor, AUO is a more serious crime and carries greater penalties than a normal traffic violation. If you are facing charges of driving with a suspended license, you need a criminal defense lawyer who is tough and experienced.
This is where I can help you. My name is Lawrence Trank, and I have more than 30 years of experience as a New Paltz driving with a suspended license attorney. At my law firm of Lawrence R. Trank, PLLC, I can help defend you against these charges to minimize your charges or have them dismissed.
What Causes Driver’s License Suspensions In New York?
There are many reasons why your driver’s license might be suspended, including:
- Past due traffic violation tickets
- Lapse in insurance coverage
- DWAI, DWI or felony DWI
- Excessive points accumulated in the driver’s license point system
Misdemeanors such as AUO have harsher penalties compared to simple traffic violations. The law takes unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle very seriously. Penalties range from additional fines to a possible jail sentence if you are convicted. Regardless of the reason, if you are charged with driving with a suspended license, I have the experience to defend you.
