Legal Issues Our Criminal Defense Attorney in Lowesville Can Help With

Because of our deep background in North Carolina criminal law, the lawyers of Teddy, Meekins & Talbert, P.L.L.C., can handle a broad range of cases, including:

Speeding / Reckless Driving / Traffic Offenses

You need to take speeding and reckless driving tickets seriously. If you miss your court date, you could be charged with failure to appear. However, you should also think twice before simply admitting guilt and paying your ticket by mail or online. A traffic offense or car accident can add points to your driver’s license record and cause your auto insurance premiums to soar. We can review your case and explore all options for you such as:

  • Seeking to have your charge reduced to a lesser traffic offense
  • Moving for a Prayer for Judgment Continued (PJC)
  • Challenging your ticket based on weaknesses in the State’s evidence.

In most cases, we can represent you in a speeding or other traffic offense case without the need for you to even appear in court.

DWI / Loss Of Driving Privileges

If you are convicted of driving while impaired (DWI) in North Carolina, you can face fines, jail time, seizure of your vehicle, and loss of your driver’s license in addition to other consequences. You can also lose your driver’s license or vehicle if you refuse to consent to a breath or blood test upon your arrest for a suspected DWI.

We are highly experienced DWI defense lawyers at Teddy, Meekins & Talbert, P.L.L.C. We can thoroughly examine your case and pursue the best strategy for you, whether that means entering a plea or challenging the State’s evidence in court.

Also, we can represent you in hearings before the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) with the goal of protecting your driving privileges or obtaining limited driving privileges that will allow you to continue to get to work, school, or your children’s daycare.

Drug Offenses / State And Federal Court

Most drug offenses are charged as felonies in state or federal court. The penalty you face depends on the type of drug, the amount involved, and whether you have past convictions for drug offenses. We recognize that people can be wrongfully charged with possession, sale, delivery, manufacturing, and trafficking drug offenses. We will work hard to protect your rights.

Other Felonies And Misdemeanors

Our criminal defense attorneys can represent clients in a variety of other felony and misdemeanor cases, including:

We also can assist you if you have been charged with a probation violation or if you are challenging a satellite-based monitoring order.
