New York Traffic Ticket?
WE CAN HELP!

A ticket is enough to ruin anyone’s day, especially a speeding ticket that could end up costing a ton of time and hundreds of dollars or more to deal with. In many cases, people simply assume that there’s nothing they can do about the ticket and that it’s better to just go ahead and deal with the consequences. That couldn’t be further from the truth.

Instead of just paying the ticket, it’s important to understand the full impact it can have and consider working with a lawyer.

To understand the cost of a speeding ticket, it’s important to look at more than just the fines. The fines will vary based on the rate of speed the driver was doing compared to the speed limit for the road. The higher the speed, the more expensive the fine will be. On top of that, there are surcharges that can be automatically applied, adding more to the cost of the ticket.

Long-term, the ticket can cost the driver quite a bit of money in increased insurance costs. Along with that, there are points that will go on the driver’s license. If enough of these accumulate, the driver’s license will be suspended, which means the driver will need to find alternate modes of transportation. That could get expensive fast or, if they cannot afford an alternate means of transportation, end up costing them their job.

In most cases, drivers who want to fight a ticket will need to go to multiple court hearings, which means they’ll need to take time off work, wait at the court for their case to be heard, and then hope they get the desired outcome. When the driver works with attorney however, the driver does not have to go to court. The attorney will handle the court cases and let the driver know what the outcome will be. Drivers can save a significant amount of time this way.

You can, but sometimes it isn't necessary.

An attorney will work to reduce the charge or have it dismissed to a non- moving violation. This can help the driver save a significant amount of money and may help them avoid a suspended license. If the ticket is dismissed the fines will be significantly lower and the driver won’t have to worry about points on their license.
