FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Should I just pay my traffic ticket?
Paying a ticket can amount to resolving the case with a conviction on your driving record. Before paying, it can be worth finding out what options you have.
Can an attorney help get my ticket amended?
In many cases, yes. Depending on the charge, your driving history, and the court, we may be able to negotiate an amendment that keeps points off your driving record. Call or text (816) 2-LAWYER. We’ll review your ticket and explain the options available in your case.
Do I have to appear in court?
Not always. Whether you need to appear depends on the charge and the court handling your case. We can review your ticket and explain what your particular court requires.
Will a traffic ticket put points on my license?
It depends on the violation. Missouri assigns points to many moving violations, and accumulating too many points can lead to suspension or revocation of your driving privilege.
What will it cost?
High quality legal representation should be available for everyone. We offer reasonable fees and reduced fees may be available for qualifying clients. Ask about fees when you send your ticket. You can receive a quote with no obligation to hire us.
