Horry County Speeding Ticket Attorney
At the Harwell Law Firm, P.A., I believe that a traffic ticket is always worth fighting. I am criminal defense attorney W. Baxter Harwell. I get calls every day from people who didn't take their traffic violation seriously or didn't think that their ticket would be reported to their home state or jurisdiction. I represent individuals throughout the Myrtle Beach/Grand Strand region, including those from out of state who received traffic tickets while visiting. I understand the potential consequences you face, and I will use my knowledge and experience to protect your driving privileges.
The police pulled you over because they thought you represented a hazard to other drivers on the road. They take traffic violations seriously, and so should you.
It Pays in Many Ways to Fight Your Traffic Violation
Like all states, South Carolina applies a point system for any moving violation. After receiving a certain number of points against your license in a 12-month period, you can have your licensed revoked, even if you are a visitor from out of state.
Any traffic ticket will catch up to you. I know what harm a moving violation can do to your license. Besides increased insurance rates, the points against your license can lead to a suspended license and heavy fines. I offer solid defense against violations such as:
- Speeding
- Reckless driving
- Driving without a license
- Driving on a suspended license
- Driving without insurance
- Following too closely
- Leaving the scene of an accident with property damage (hit-and-run)
As your lawyer, I will help you understand your options and serve as your advocate before the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in the event of a hearing. I seek to protect your driving privileges and to achieve the best possible outcome for you.
If you were pulled over for suspected drunk driving, especially if you refused a breath test or tested over .15, you only have 30 days to appeal an automatic license suspension. I will serve as your advocate in the administrative hearing before the DMV and work to help you obtain a provisional driver's license while your case is in progress.
