Buffalo NY Area Suspended Driver License Lawyer

A Buffalo NY Area  Drivers License Suspension Lawyer can explain that in the State of New York, most people are not aware that driving with a suspended license is a crime . Under New York Vehicle and Traffic Law, section 511, d driving with a suspended license can be a felony offense. It is common , for people to not be aware that they are driving on a suspended license, often until they are arrested.

. Often this problem occurs because someone received a moving violation . If the driver fails to respond to the ticket, and  fails to go to court, or goes to court and is found guilty and does not pay the fine, their license can be suspended. While the DMV normally sends a warning letter informing the driver of a pending suspension, if they do not rget  the letter, they will be unaware of the problem. If you have had your license suspended, it is important to take prompt action and speak with a Buffalo Criminal Lawyer from our team today.
