Motor Vehicle Crimes
Advice from a Criminal Defense Lawyer in Boston
Have you been accused of a motor vehicle crime in Boston? It is not uncommon for individuals facing motor vehicle crime allegations to also face combined charges of other related crimes, such as manslaughter or
theft. Motor vehicle crimes are not only more severe in nature, but convictions could lead to permanent license suspension.
If you have been accused of a motor vehicle crime in Massachusetts, it is important to seek legal representation from a Boston criminal defense attorney as soon as possible. Whether you are innocent of the crime, made a mistake, or are facing multiple charges, you can trust that a Boston motor vehicle crime lawyer from The Criminal Defense Group can help preserve your constitutional rights and your privileges as a driver. Due to the complex nature of motor crimes, we know that all motor vehicle crime cases demand a substantial amount of preparation and zealous representation.
Common Types of Traffic Crimes
Motor vehicle offenses can involve a number of crimes. Common motor vehicle crimes could include the following:
- Common traffic infractions, including traffic violations, speeding tickets, or parking tickets
- Driving with a suspended license due to a prior driving under the influence conviction
- Hit and run
- Motor vehicle theft crimes
- Reckless driving
- Vehicular manslaughter / involuntary vehicular manslaughter
Oftentimes, motor vehicle crime charges are the result of search and seizure violations. If we are able to prove that law enforcement officials had no reasonable cause to stop you, administer a chemical test, or search your vehicle, then any evidence gathered against you could be deemed inadmissible in court.
Fighting Allegations & Preserving Driving Privileges
Being charged with any kind of criminal offense can be extremely exhaustive. Unfortunately, just because a criminal allegation has been brought against you does not mean that everyday responsibilities cease. Individuals facing misdemeanor or felony charges must also focus on daily duties, such as paying bills, taking care of family, and performing at work.
You may fear that a motor vehicle crime conviction could result in the loss of your driving privileges. This could be detrimental for people who rely on transportation to get to and from work or school or rely on commercial driving for their financial lifeline.
