HOWARD LOTVEN
ATTORNEY AT LAW
As a former judge and prosecutor who's handled more than 10,000 trial cases on both sides of the bench, I can challenge overzealous police charges and pick apart flaws in the case against you. I will be both your advocate and a defender of your rights.
When you take me on as your legal counsel, I will show you honesty and compassion. I will also keep you in the loop every step of the way as a buffer between you and the legal system. Your driving privileges are at stake. Let me be your advocate.
To defend your rights, the answer is “yes.”
Even a basic speeding ticket adds points to your driving record, which insurance companies use to jack up your premium. A DUI/DWI can be even worse. You can lose your license, and your insurer may decide to cancel you. Fight all traffic violations.

Challenge the Evidence
Prosecutors and police are prone to cutting legal corners and relying on evidence that can be challenged. Even a breathalyzer result is subject to device errors and administrative missteps.

Strive for Reduced Fines & Penalties
In a drunk driving charge, you can face fines, jail and a loss of driving privileges. I can negotiate for lesser penalties or probation, perhaps even a reduced charge — if not a dismissal.
Let me help you protect your driving privileges.
