“Ms. Cotton was Awesome! She communicated with me through every step of my son’s case. She defended my son wonderfully. She was clear about everything she was going to do and she was honest and upfront always. I live in NY and traveled to NC for my son’s hearing. He was released! Thank you so much Ms. Cotton! I highly recommend her services to anyone that needs representation!”

Criminal Defense
If you have been charged with a crime, it is essential to seek consultation from an experienced trial attorney as soon as you can. It does not matter what you have been charged with — speaking to an attorney ensures your rights are protected from the onset of your case. The Cotton Law Firm represents clients for a range of criminal defense matters including drug offenses, assault charges, larceny, embezzlement, and more. We also represent clients who have been falsely charged with crimes.
Advocating for First-Time & Serious Offenders
We are a team of aggressive, compassionate litigators and trial attorneys. We work to level the playing field for our clients by developing customized strategies and gathering the appropriate evidence and testimony. Throughout your case, our team will hold the U.S. Attorneys office and prosecutors to their burden of proof to prove their case, not just accuse you of a crime. We maintain our clients are innocent until proven guilty and offer fair, equal representation in every case.

Criminal Traffic
From minor traffic violations (like forgetting to signal when changing lanes) to more serious offenses (such as reckless driving), the Cotton Law Firm has extensive experience defending criminal traffic cases and achieving positive outcomes. We are determined to fight for your desired result.
After getting a traffic ticket or getting charged with a fine, you may think paying the ticket or pleading guilty is the easiest way to take care of the problem. This isn’t true, as a guilty verdict can come with unforeseen consequences, including points on your license, higher insurance rates, and the possibility of being added to a criminal record.
Working To Keep Money In Your Pocket
In a criminal traffic dispute, you need someone on your side who will help you keep your license and guide you through the entire process. You may not even have to go to court! As affordable attorneys, we work to save you money and unnecessary trouble down the road.
Federal Traffic Tickets On & Off Base
Have you been issued a citation by the military police of Fort Bragg? The Cotton Law Firm can help! We have represented numerous individuals across the state who have received a federal citation. Whether you’re on or off base, or in the surrounding areas, the team at the Cotton Law Firm can help you protect your legal rights.
Types of Traffic Court Violations
The slight miss of a stop sign can gain you as many points as driving 80 mph in a 70 mph zone would. Traffic offenses are not taken lightly in the state of North Carolina, which is why you need reliable and dedicated attorneys on your side. We believe in fighting for the individual!
The chart below is here to inform you of the consequences of various traffic offenses. Traffic violations can happen to anyone, and consulting an attorney can help prevent additional fines and increased insurance rates.
