Not only can a qualified criminal defense attorney from the Law Offices of James Crosby shield you from the often ruthless tactics employed by the Commonwealth prosecutors, but he can ensure that your rights are protected from the moment of your arrest to the present.

Losing your driver’s license can be detrimental to your life. If you are not able to drive to work or get your kids from school or activities, you suddenly face a number of challenges. The longer you wait to talk to a lawyer, the less likely it is that you will be able to get your driver’s license restored quickly.

If you are facing a suspension of your driver’s license, you need an experienced Pittsburgh driver’s license restoration attorney on your side. The loss of a driver’s license can lead to difficulty with employment or school attendance, leaving lasting negative consequences beyond those that simply appear on your driving record.

Commencing an appeal with the Pennsylvania DMV (also known as PennDOT) can be a harrowing experience. Whether you recently lost your license due to excessive speeding or a DUI offense, loss of driving privileges can result in the inability to travel to and from work and/or school.

If you’ve lost your driver’s license because of a traffic violation, DUI, or another suspension in Pennsylvania, one of the first concerns you likely have is about getting to work each day. Even when your license is revoked, you may have options for getting a license to get to and from work or drive during certain hours.

If you are facing state or federal criminal charges, a local criminal attorney can help you during the investigation, arrest, discovery and trial phases of your case. Be careful: proceeding against the government without a lawyer is a surefire way to inadvertently waive your rights and incriminate yourself further.
