Think It's Not Serious? Think Again.
Pennsylvania's DMV operates on a point system. Each traffic offense has a point value. Too many offenses, or too serious a traffic violation, and those points add up to large fines, a suspended driver's license, and jail time. Even a speeding ticket can be costly. The faster you were going, the more points you get on your driving record. Every point adds dollars to the fine you face. Points on your license can also result in increased auto insurance rates.
Caught driving on a suspended license? You face fines and further suspension of your license. If that suspension was for drunk driving you face a mandatory jail sentence of at least 60 days.. If you're drunk driving on a suspended license, the penalties are much higher, including potentially thousands of dollars in fines and mandatory jail time.
Defense against Traffic Tickets
Traffic cops have rules and regulations they must follow. An experienced traffic ticket defense attorney knows the rules and when they have or haven't been followed. Failure to follow the rules can lead to your traffic charges being dismissed or reduced to lesser charges or not-guilty verdicts. In other cases, it may be possible for me to negotiate with the police officer to have your charges reduced to something that carries fewer points or no points and therefore won't affect your auto insurance.
If you received a traffic ticket in Montgomery County or Bucks County, contact me today. Put my 35-plus years of traffic defense experience to work on your case.
The Difference Is Experience!
