It is not unusual to see a car pulled over on the shoulder of a highway with a police cruiser behind it and an officer standing at the driver's window. However, when you are the one being pulled over, it is not just an everyday sight - it's a stressful event that could cost you a lot of money.

Strong Defense in Traffic Ticket and Other Traffic Violation Cases
Unfortunately for people who receive a traffic citation or speeding ticket, most do not understand the system. Even less understand that they have options that can have a direct effect on their driving record. Too many traffic citations and speeding tickets within a specified period of time can lead to a suspension or revocation of your driver's license.
At Law & Schriener, LLC, we understand Missouri traffic laws and the often impersonal system that enforces them. Our attorneys guide clients through the legal processes having to do with the following:
- Traffic tickets
- Speeding tickets
- Moving violations
- Driving with a suspended or revoked license
- Driving with no insurance
- Reckless driving
- Hit and run, or leaving the scene of an accident
An Aggressive Defense Approach
We take a forceful stance from the very beginning of each traffic violation case by performing an investigation of the facts, if necessary. We may visit the scene of an accident where you were issued a traffic citation, or discuss the sequence of events with you and any witnesses.
We work to build a strong defense case on behalf of our clients, and we also work to minimize the long-term consequences of traffic violations on your driving record and your insurance rates. For example, we may recommend negotiating with the prosecutor to accept a higher fine in exchange for an amended charge that will not put points on your license. It may cost more now, but it may save you a lot of insurance money over time, and it could prevent loss of your driver's license.
