Texting While Driving

Effective July 1st, 2019, texting while driving in Florida is a primary offense.  That means law enforcement can pull you over for suspicion of texting while driving.  As attorneys vested in our clients' interests, we are already thinking about how this legal change of texting while driving in Florida may be challenged in court.  If you or a loved one are cited for texting while driving in Florida, please be sure to contact our office at 386-222-6677 or start your case online to schedule an appointment with an experienced traffic lawyer.

Avoid Points & A Possible License Suspension

Florida law includes a traffic violation point system that can quickly turn a handful of minor traffic offenses into a suspended or revoked driver's license. If you are a resident of Daytona Beach or the surrounding areas and have received a traffic citation, you have options. We can help you protect your insurance premiums and save your license. Regardless of whether the alleged traffic offense occurs in Florida or in another state, you are subject to the same number of points upon conviction. Even a simple speeding ticket will end up costing you more than the amount on the ticket.

Traffic Ticket Consequences

If you're found guilty of a traffic offense, your insurance rates may increase, you could face denial of insurance coverage, or your license may be suspended.
