Reckless Driving
If you have been charged with reckless driving, do not take your charges lightly. Do not attempt to represent yourself or rely on a public defender to handle your case. You need an experienced criminal defense attorney who will take the time necessary to provide a vigorous defense on your behalf.
In Washington, D.C., a reckless driving conviction results in an automatic driver's license suspension. You must schedule an administrative hearing to challenge the automatic suspension of your license. If retained to handle your case, we can handle your criminal charges and your administrative driver's license suspension hearing.
Attorney Paul Hunt uses nearly 15 years of experience to help clients in courts throughout Washington, D.C. He knows the court system — from clerks, to judges, to prosecutors — and uses that knowledge to seek a positive outcome for each client he serves.
Put Our Experience to Work for You
Attorney Paul Hunt has extensive experience in traffic cases. He understands the procedures that police must follow in these cases. He understands that speed guns are not always accurate, and a police officer's perception of what is "reckless" is not always accurate.
As an experienced trial lawyer and cross-examiner, he can aggressively defend your rights at trial if necessary. However, in most reckless driving cases we are able to reach an agreement with the prosecution that avoids the necessity of trial and minimizes exposure to adverse penalties. Deferred sentencing agreements can result in charges being dropped for persons who have a good driving record. Through diligence and experience, we have been able to help many individuals charged with reckless driving protect their license, record and rights.
