- Drug Charges

A conviction on Pennsylvania drug charges can restrict your freedom in the short term and further impact your life in the long term.

Eshelman helps you decide if a plea bargain or a trial is in your best interests.

- Motor Vehicle Charges

Motor vehicle charges can be more serious than you realize, especially if you have a commercial driver's license (CDL). Convictions can send you to jail and/or put points on your license. Additionally, your auto insurance premiums may increase or your insurer may drop you altogether. You can get help from David R. Eshelman, one of the most experienced criminal defense lawyers in Berks County. He can help you fight your traffic charges and avoid serious consequences.

- Driver’s License Suspension

Your license may be suspended for many different reasons, including: drug convictions; drunk driving arrests; motor vehicle convictions; breathalyzer or blood test refusal; and underage drinking charges. David R. Eshelman can appeal your license suspension if the facts warrant an appeal. Pennsylvania assigns points to certain traffic convictions, and based on an accumulation of points, your license can be suspended or you can be ordered to take an examination. Some convictions carry automatic suspensions. You should consult an attorney and learn the consequences before you plead guilty, especially if you have a commercial driver's license (CDL). Even speeding violations can have more serious consequences for CDL operators compared to Class C licensees.

- Expungements

An encounter with the criminal justice system leaves a mark on your personal history. Even if you were not convicted, the record of your arrest and prosecution is usually retained by the courts. You may face future challenges when you are asked to submit to background checks. But in certain cases, records of your criminal matter may be eliminated. Learn more about how David R. Eshelman can help you accomplish this through expungement.
