Before You Pay a Reckless Driving Fine

Before you pay, consider fighting your ticket. You may be entitled to a reduced or dismissed charge, and you might not have to go to court. Contact a reckless driving lawyer in Virginia for more information.

If you have already been convicted, it’s not too late. You have a right to an appeal to the circuit court if you file within 10 days. Again, contact a Virginia lawyer to discuss your options.
