Roanoke and Franklin County, Virginia Criminal and Traffic Lawyer

If you have been accused of a crime or received a ticket in Virginia, the stakes couldn’t be higher than they are today.  The jail sentences and fines being handed down today are more daunting than they have ever been. 

In our day to day lives, the vast majority of us never dream that we would need a criminal lawyer.  But if you have been accused of a crime, you are well-advised to seek representation.  And if you are looking for representation, you should consider a law firm that the Roanoke community has trusted and used for over a century.  Established in 1891, Davis, Davis, Davis & Davis is a law firm serving the criminal defense needs of Roanoke and southwest Virginia in the areas of traffic tickets, speeding tickets, DWI law, or general criminal defense.

Blue and red lights are flashing in your rear view mirror.  Every driver’s fear has suddenly become your reality.  How fast were you going?  Did you miss that stop sign back a mile back?  Are you sure you put that blinker on before changing lanes?

These are the thoughts that race through our minds in the time that it takes the officer approaches and says “license and registration, please.”  This time, which always seems like an eternity, also makes us wonder, “Just how many points do I have on my license?”

If you believe you weren’t speeding, came to a complete stop, or did put your blinker on and want to fight the ticket, the Davis Law Firm is here for you.  We’re also here for you if the number of points on your license is about to put you over the limit and raise your insurance premiums, require that you go to traffic school, or lead to the loss of your license.

The penalties for driving under the influence in Virginia are huge.  As a first time offender in Virginia, you can receive a mandatory 5 day jail sentence if your blood alcohol level is .15 or above, or a 10 day jail sentence if your blood alcohol level is 0.21 or above.  On top of the jail time there is a minimum fine of $250, the loss of your license for 12 months, and various other fees and mandatory programs to worry about.

And those numbers are only for the minimum sentence.  Without an experienced attorney negotiating with the district attorney and representing you in front of the court, you may be in for higher fines and a longer stay in jail.  With more than a century of experience in Roanoke, Virginia’s courthouses, the Davis Law Firm can help you through the legal system to get you the best possible result and let you go on with your life.

One of the cornerstones of the American criminal justice system is the belief that every accused person is “innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.”  Unfortunately, in the age of six o’clock news programs that show pictures of the accused, give details about the crime, and allow the police to give their opinions, not everyone accused of a crime starts out on equal ground.

Aggressive, experienced trial attorneys like the Davis Law Firm can help put you back on equal footing if you stand accused of a crime.  Because of the long jail sentences, fines, potential for seizure of assets, and the public stigma of being found guilty of a crime, you cannot afford to select the wrong attorney.  Our attorneys have tried over one thousand (1,000) trials and have negotiated countless plea deals for our clients. 

Our firm defends clients in Roanoke, Rocky Mount, Boones Mill, Franklin County, Bedford County, Martinsville and Henry County, VA.

Speeding and Reckless Driving

Getting caught speeding not only costs you the face value of the ticket, but can increase your insurance premiums and even cause you to lose your license if you have accumulated too many points. But there are many ways to avoid these negative consequences. The skilled attorneys at Davis, Davis, Davis & Davis, PC, can help you minimize the costs of a speeding ticket or reckless driving violation.

Criminal Defense

At the Davis law firm, we understand that criminal defendants have an uphill battle. This is especially true in Virginia, where the criminal defense lawyer’s ability to conduct “discovery,” the process by which evidence is obtained, is extremely limited. Unlike a civil trial, where witnesses are often asked to give depositions and all exhibits must be turned over to opposing counsel before trial, in a criminal trial, the Commonwealth’s attorney is required to turn over almost no evidence to the defense.
