WHO HERE LOVES TRAFFIC TICKETS???
Our small group of two lawyers resolve probably 15 to 25+ traffic tickets a month, on average. At least half are usually CDL (truck drivers, stricter rules). One thing that makes me cringe is walking into Court, and seeing people with a ticket AND prior points on their record, trying to handle without a lawyer.
Yes, you may get lucky 1/4 of the time (perhaps slightly higher if you're extra polite) and work out a deal when they call you up there..... Or, your girlfriend/wife/daughter/mother might get sick, and suddenly you miss Court. No big deal, right? Actually, that's an AUTOMATIC License Suspension. Drive WHILE suspended and they may even try to throw jail time at you. (Also, beating the ticket is no guarantee that your Suspension disappears.)
COUNTRYMEN. LADIES. I know an easier way. Spend 15 minutes on the phone or Messenger with me. Let my office process your payment (phone works for that as well). Then, you DON'T need to come to Court, or worry, or do anything until my number pops up and I tell you "I handled it."
Don't drive like a speed child without Irak on speed dial. (I don't think speed dial is even a thing anymore, actually. Whatever, I'm still funny.)
