License Suspension

Pennsylvania License Suspension Attorney

Driving is a privilege in Pennsylvania and your privileges can be taken away for a variety of violations. Unfortunately, if your license is suspended, alternative forms of transportation may not be available in your area and life necessities such as employment and child care may force you to drive. If caught driving while suspended additional suspension time, fines and in some cases incarceration can occur. It is important to hire an attorney that is familiar with this area of law. As a former Assistant District Attorney, I frequently handled these types of cases and conducted many trials and hearings regarding license suspension issues. Contact Jason R. Antoine, Criminal Defense Attorney, if you or someone you know is having a license suspension issue.
