Pittsburgh Man Makes Restitution After A Criminal Traffic Violation, Expungement Pending

A 29-year-old bank employee was pulling into a Pittsburgh gas station; however, got too close to another car and struck the vehicle’s side mirror. Both drivers exited their respective cars and argued about the incident. The man was nervous and out of fear and frustration left the scene. The other driver took a photo of his license plate and contacted the police. When the officers made contact with the man, they charged him with a criminal traffic violation, causing damage to a vehicle, which is a 3rd-degree misdemeanour. The man knew he needed strong legal representation to avoid the ramifications associated with a criminal traffic violation so he retained the experienced Pittsburgh attorneys at Worgul, Sarna & Ness, Criminal Defense Attorneys, LLC.

We negotiated with all the parties involved, determined the cost of the damaged mirror, and our client made full restitution for the cost of the repairs. As a result of this, the charges were dismissed and we are presently working for a total expungement of the charges.

The outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any similar or future case.
