Did you know that millions of speeding tickets are issued every year? On top of that, about 125,000 Americans receive traffic citations on a daily basis! While the average fine will run you about $150, these traffic violations often prove far more expensive. Unfortunately, more than 95% of motorists will not contest their speeding tickets, and will instantly pay the fine. The Law Office of J. Fernando Treviño, P.C. will take a look at your recent citation, and take the proper steps to reduce your penalty.
So how do you know when you should or shouldn't hire a lawyer to handle a speeding violation? In general, there are so many upsides to having a professional attorney behind you when attempting to dispute a ticket that you would have to have a very good reason not to hire one. For many people, unfortunately, the cost alone is reason enough. Lawyer fees can cover quite a range, and even though on the lower end are often prohibitively expensive, especially when you're already looking at having to pay off a speeding violation. In some cases, however, the investment is more than worth it. This applies mainly to those at risk of losing their CDL or who already have a lot of tickets on their record. If you fall into one of these categories, it is highly recommended to consult with a speeding violation lawyer. You will quickly discover how valuable their legal knowledge, negotiation skills, and trial experience can be in overturning your citation.
