Points on South Carolina Tickets:

As few as 12 points on your South Carolina driver's license equals a suspension.

Here are some examples of how traffic violations and the points they're worth:

2 points:
Speeding 10 mph above the limit, improper lane change, defective tail light, driving 10 mph too fast for conditions, failure to dim lights

4 points:
Failure to yield, speeding more than 10 but less than 25 mph above the limit, illegal turns, illegal passing, ignoring a traffic device

6 points
Reckless driving, passing a stopped school bus, speeding more than 25 mph above the limit

Whether you are a local or an out-of-state driver, you need to protect your driver's license by fighting every traffic ticket. Contact me now for a free consultation.

I Handle Cases Throughout the State

Most people in South Carolina who get traffic or speeding tickets—or who are arrested for DUI—just give up and pay the consequences. They decide they're "guilty" and won't win in court. Worse, if you live out of state, you may be tempted to pay that traffic ticket just so you don't have to come back to the state for a hearing.

Don't give up.

The Lord Law Firm, LLC, located in Irmo, South Carolina near Columbia. provides experienced, effective defense statewide to South Carolinians and residents of North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and other states who have received traffic tickets or been charged with a DUI offense in South Carolina.

As an attorney since 1998 and a former police officer, I can provide you with an aggressive traffic or drunk-driving defense based on specific knowledge and formulated to get you the results you need.

Never pay a traffic ticket without contesting it:

The fines are hefty. Fines can range from hundreds to thousands of dollars depending on the offense.
Points on your driving record can threaten your driver's license. Only 12 points on your license can mean a three-month suspension.
Out-of-state driver ticketed in South Carolina? You will still get points on your license. If you are a non-resident but are convicted of a traffic offense in South Carolina, the Non-Resident Violations Compact, an arrangement South Carolina has with most states means you will still accumulate points on your home state driver's license.
Your insurance rates could skyrocket. Did you know that insurance rates can increase as much as 1000% percent for paying one traffic ticket? South Carolina has some of the highest insurance rates in the country. An increase of your insurance rates could be financially devastating.

In addition to my statewide traffic and DUI defense practice, I defend people who are facing charges of reckless homicide, or non alcohol-related fatal car accidents. I also handle a variety of other legal issues, which are detailed at www.lordlaw.com
