A Bad Day Just Gets Worse With an Unjustified DWI Imagine you’ve had a hard day at work, and you stop for dinner, a little bite after a bad day. We’ve all done it. Perhaps you’ve decided to have a drink with your food. You’re an adult, it’s legal. You aren’t impaired in any way. You can drive home. Now imagine on that drive home you get into an accident. It’s the cherry on top of the sundae, the icing on the cake, the very worst thing on this already bad day. Unfortunately, this is exactly what happened to one Forsyth County man, and his day was about to deteriorate even further. Investigating the Truth or Investing in an Arrest?

Winston-Salem Traffic Attorney Saves Senior’s Holiday

Winston-Salem Traffic Attorney Races to Save One Senior's Holiday Season Our Traffic Attorneys always strive to provide the best defense possible for each and every one of their clients. Generally, though, they can't perform miracles. But a Holiday miracle is exactly what Winston-Salem Traffic Attorney Tyler Chriscoe managed for one Stokes County Senior. The Incident A senior citizen of Stokes County found herself with a unique problem this Holiday Season and was at a loss as to what to do. You see, back in October, she was doing her normal errands, nothing unusual, when she was cited for speeding 15mph over the limit and failing to wear a seat belt. Taking care of this type of thing was not within her knowledge base since she had not had a traffic citation in nearly 36 years. The ticket said she could pay it [...]

Dummit Fradin Wins $6.6M Verdict Against Rapper Yo Gotti

Yo Gotti Lawsuit: Dummit Fradin Secures $6.6M Verdict in Winston-Salem Case  [Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Tuesday, May 28, 2019] Dummit Fradin litigation attorneys recently won a high profile trial against mainstream rapper Yo Gotti. Yo Gotti, aka Mario Mims, was slapped with a hefty $2.2 million verdict in a North Carolina courtroom today. The amount was then tripled by a Forsyth County judge to $6.6 million because of a finding of unfair and deceptive trade practices. In 2016, Yo Gotti recorded a verse for Young Fletcher. Young Fletcher, aka Lamont Fletcher, is a local North Carolina rapper who hoped to "jump start" his career with the release of this collaboration. Yo Gotti received $20,000 for the recording, but never got approval from his label Epic Records. Nor did he provide the required “side artist agreement” which would have allowed Young Fletcher to release the [...]

Dismissed – DWI won for Corpus Delicti

Our founder, Clarke Dummit, won another DWI case based upon the Corpus Delicti rule. Our client got charged with DWI after the Winston-Salem police officer heard the crash and drove over to the scene of the wreck 3 minutes later. When the officer arrived our client was out of the car with the hood open looking at the damage to the grill. There was another person at the scene who could have been driving, but our client said he was driving. There was no physical evidence that our client was driving, and the only circumstantial evidence (that our client owned the car, and was at the scene) led equally to the conclusion that he was a passenger. Our client was arrested and blew a .17 at the station. What is Corpus Delicti? Mr. Dummit of Dummit Fradin made a motion to dismiss at the close of the State’s [...]
