Traffic Tickets

Traffic citations may result in the assessment of drivers license and/or insurance points, which may result in increased insurance premiums for you and your family. Paying the ticket amounts to a guilty plea and may cost you in the long run. To see what the ramifications of your citation may be and what your options are, contact a lawyer at The Valentine Law Firm.  Consultations and fee quotes are free. 

We handle traffic tickets for clients in Nash County, Wilson County, Edgecombe County and the City of Rocky Mount.
