Whether or not it’s worth hiring a traffic lawyer to “fix” your ticket will come down to you and your specific situation. In New York, motorists can resolve their traffic tickets by pleading guilty and paying fines online, pleading not guilty and going to court, or by entering into a Traffic Program.

1. We’ll fight your ticket

A traffic ticket can be more than just a nuisance. It can result in hefty fines, increased insurance rates, and even a license suspension. Unfortunately, many people just pay the ticket rather than fight it. However, by paying a ticket you are essentially admitting guilt and your case is now on record as a conviction.

Hiring a traffic ticket lawyer may be the best way to protect your driving record and keep your rates low. We have a proven track record of defending drivers against traffic tickets and we offer competitive pricing. Plus, we’ll handle everything from filing for a court date to ordering the officer’s disclosure to building your defence and fighting your traffic ticket in court on your behalf.

Most traffic offences are considered infractions and not crimes. As such, they are usually decided by a judge without a jury. That means that the judge is biased against you and will take the officer’s word over yours.

But what if you can prove you didn’t break the law? For example, you could be able to use the legal defense of “legal necessity.” This is where you are forced to break the law in order to avoid greater harm. If you can convince the judge or jury that this is true, then you might be able to get your traffic ticket dismissed.

2. We’ll fight for your rights

Traffic ticket convictions can affect your driving record, increase insurance rates, and cause other problems such as license suspension. Fortunately, a good traffic lawyer can help you avoid these penalties.

A traffic lawyer’s job is to fight for your rights in court. You have the right to challenge the police officer’s version of events and present evidence that supports your side of the story. For example, if you received a ticket for changing lanes on a highway and the officer said that it was unsafe, your traffic lawyer can argue that the conditions at that time of day made the lane change necessary and not dangerous.

In most cases, fighting a traffic ticket requires that you attend your trial date and plead not guilty. Your case will then be heard in front of a judge or jury and you can tell your side of the story.

While it’s possible to have your ticket dismissed, it’s not always an easy task. The law is complex and changes on a regular basis. The experienced Traffic Paralegal Services have the expertise and knowledge to get your ticket fixed.

MTS traffic ticket services will handle everything on your behalf, including filing for a trial date, ordering the officers disclosure, building your defence and fighting your Ontario traffic ticket in court.

3. We’ll save you money

The fines, surcharges, and assessments that come with a traffic ticket can cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars. Additionally, insurance companies are likely to raise your rates after you have a conviction on your record. By hiring a lawyer to get the ticket dismissed or reduced to a non-moving violation, you can save money in the long run.

Experienced traffic lawyers have a lot of experience working with prosecutors to get charges reduced or dismissed. They know what evidence will convince a judge, and they also understand legal technicalities that you may not be aware of. Often, just being able to prove that the officer did not have probable cause to stop you or that their radar equipment was improperly calibrated can be enough to dismiss a case.

In addition, traffic lawyers can help you avoid costly penalties by getting tickets dismissed or reduced to a non-moving violation, which can save you money on your premiums and prevent points from being added to your license. When you consider that a traffic ticket can be worth up to $1,000 if you have to pay it plus all the associated fees, the upfront investment for a professional lawyer is well worth the peace of mind and financial savings you’ll receive in the long run.

4. We’ll take care of everything

When you get pulled over for speeding or other traffic violations, it’s easy to panic and feel overwhelmed. These violations are expensive, and if you don’t fight them properly they can cause your insurance premiums to rise. A traffic paralegal can help you save time, money and stress by fighting your ticket for you.

A skilled traffic ticket lawyer will have an in-depth understanding of traffic law that a layperson simply could not match even with extensive research. This sophisticated understanding gives them the best chance of getting your traffic ticket dismissed or amended to a lesser violation so that you do not have points added to your record.

Many people are tempted to pay their traffic tickets instead of hiring a traffic lawyer to fight them. But a good traffic lawyer will save you the expense of the fine and also the added cost that comes from adding points to your record.

The Ontario Highway Traffic Act is complex and changes on a regular basis. A good traffic paralegal will stay up to date on all of these changes so that they can offer their clients the best possible service. They will take care of everything on your behalf including filing for your court date, ordering the officer’s disclosure and building a solid defence to your ticket. They will even attend your trial on your behalf if necessary.
