Defending Your Traffic Violations

 

Traffic violations may seem minor, but they can have significant consequences on your driving record, insurance premiums, and overall freedom to move around. With our extensive knowledge of traffic laws and the courts, we are well-equipped to handle a wide range of traffic violations, including but not limited to:

  1. Speeding tickets

We believe that everyone deserves a fair defense, regardless of the severity of the offense. At Burnham Law Firm, we will carefully evaluate the circumstances surrounding your traffic violation, examining the evidence, and exploring potential legal defenses to help minimize the impact on your driving record and overall life.

Focused OWI/DWI Defense

Being charged with operating while intoxicated/operating a vehicle while impaired (OWI) or driving while intoxicated (DWI) can have serious consequences, including license suspension, hefty fines, increased insurance rates, mandatory alcohol education programs, and even potential jail time. With such high stakes, it is crucial to have a skilled DWI/DUI defense attorney by your side. We handle a variety of Louisiana DWI/DUI related matters, including:

  1. First-time OWI/DWI offenses

  2. Repeat OWI/DWI offenses

  3. Felony OWI/DWI charges

  4. Underage OWI or DWI

  5. OWI/DWI accidents causing injury or death

  6. Breathalyzer test refusals

  7. Field sobriety test challenges

 

We understand the importance of building a strong defense strategy tailored to the unique circumstances of your case. From challenging the accuracy of breathalyzer tests to scrutinizing law enforcement procedures, we leave no stone unturned in our pursuit of justice.
