Ready to Help You Avoid Serious Penalties for Traffic Violations
Did you know that simply paying off a traffic ticket really means admitting guilt? Not only are you subject to a fine, but also points on your driver’s license that could result in license suspension and increased insurance premiums. Certain traffic offenses like DUI and reckless driving are considered criminal offenses that carry serious penalties including incarceration and fines. Protogyrou Law can determine if there are any available defenses that apply to your case and help you avoid serious penalties.
If you have been accused of a traffic offense, consult our Norfolk traffic court attorney without delay. Tell us about your traffic violation by filling out our secure online form or call (757) 267-6611 now.
Criminal Traffic Offenses vs Traffic Infractions
Virginia law distinguishes traffic offenses from traffic infractions.
Infractions are considered less serious and have milder penalties. You may get a traffic ticket for an infraction, but it will not result in a criminal record, and you will not be sent to jail. Paying a fine will keep you out of court. Too many infractions in a certain period of time may cause your license to be suspended.
Criminal traffic offenses are treated with more serious consequences, and they will appear on your background check if you are found guilty.
Below are examples of each.

I Would Have to Say, You've Outdone Yourself
"- Lawrence C.Mr. Protogyrou,
I would have to say that you have outdone yourself, and I’m grateful to you. By you writing my prosecutor, Mrs. Laura Tayman, about me and telling her of my assistance in the Michael Jordan trial, and assisting the prosecutor Mr. Jim Metcalfe, made me feel for me receiving my motion for my rule 350.
Mr. Protogyrou, by you being close to this institution, or prison, everyone has kept their eyes and ears on every lawyer from Norfolk to Richmond. Whenever your name is mentioned, the inmates here already know that you will fight for your clients, and in most of your cases that went to trial, you were victorious. I do believe that you will do the same for me." -
