Thank you for visiting my website! 

I am Curtis Sluder, an Attorney practicing exclusively Traffic/Criminal Law in Western North Carolina. I have assisted thousands of motorists with traffic violations- speeding ticket and other traffic citations- over the last 8 years, and as a lawyer, saved drivers literally millions of dollars in potential insurance increases.  My staff and I will be glad to assist you with your traffic violation, and try to come up with the best method of handling your violation such that your license and insurance suffers the least possible change as a result of your ticket, if any at all.  I haver assisted drivers from all states, and even some foreign countries, and will work with you and your state as much as possible.  I am very familiar with North Carolina traffic law, and have a great track record dealing with traffic tickets and citations.  I help drivers every day with violations along I-40, other interstate highways in North Carolina, and anywhere the Trooper might get you in his radar sights.  Having a lawyer for a speeding ticket in your Morganton, Burke County speeding matter makes good sense.

Many people do not realize that most states will share information from North Carolina about your history of speeding ticket s, traffic citation s, and other driving related violations.  This means that even if you are licensed in another state, a citation here could affect your out of state license once it is reported.  Currently, North Carolina ans 42 states are memebers of the National Drivers License Compact, and share driving history information regarding traffic violation s and speeding ticket s.  If you are from outside North Carolina, you may want to contact an attorney in your state to see how a ticket in North Carolina can affect you in your home state.  Every day, drivers along Intersatate 40 through the Morganton / Burke County area are stopped by troopers for speeding. Make sure you do all you can to minimize the impact if you are accused of speeding in North Carolina. Get a lawyer for your citation.

What I can do for you:

For most speeding tickets and traffic citations in Burke County, I can appear in court for you, saving you from missing a day of work to stand in a long line and a crowded Morganton courtroom, unsure of how to handle your speeding ticket.  The district attorney will not be able to give you legal advice regarding your traffic citation, but as a private attorney, I am glad to do so for you.  In most cases, I can negotiate a lower speed, saving your license and insurance, ask the judge to continue judgment, which may be of particular help to some drivers, or make arrangments to get your charge modified to a non-moving violation, which will not hurt your license or insurance at all.  In some cases, you may have to attend an approved defensive driving class, usually given on a Saturday or weeknight in your area.  We can usually locate an approved class in your area, so you will not have to return to court in Burke County or even North Carolina,  at all.  And, in some cases, we may be able to get your traffic citation dismissed entirely provided you can send us the required documentation. 

In all cases, if we cannot help you,we will tell you when you call.  We try to be available to you to answer your questions and calls promptly and courteously, and give you peace of mind regarding your traffic citation and speeding ticket.  I want all my clients to rest assured that as an attorney, I have your best interest in mind.
