Traffic Law | DUI Offenses

Taking a conviction from a traffic matter may have consequences to your driving privileges in the State of Missouri. In addition to the assessed fine(s), the jurisdiction typically reports a conviction to the Department of Revenue, which will assess points to your driver’s license. Simply pleading guilty, even to a seemingly-minor traffic offense, is not in your best interest. Ignoring a traffic citation can lead to warrants for your arrest and immediate suspension of your driving privileges.

As a former municipal prosecutor, Dan gained extensive experience prosecuting DUI/DWI, driving on a revoked/suspended license, careless and imprudent driving, speeding, as well as other traffic offenses. As a current defense lawyer, Dan possesses the experience and ability to secure the most favorable disposition to your case and has the resources to take your case to trial and an appeal, if necessary.

If you have been charged with a DUI/DWI, the clock immediately starts ticking on your privilege to drive in the State of Missouri. In addition to defending you in the pending criminal matter, Dan has the knowledge and experience to challenge the suspension of your driving privileges.
