anyone know good traffic lawyers in SA??

streetstang03 · 09-08-2005, 11:26 PM

SAPD got me for 79 in a 65 today.

:thumbdown to me for speeding. I cant let this go on my insurance and raise my rates!! i dont think im eligible for defensive driving b/c i took it around this time last year to take care of a speeding ticket (SAPD again). I was thinking about getting a traffic lawyer to try and get the ticket dismissed or go to court and ask for deferred adjudication. I cant afford to let my rates go up or pay a whole lot of money with gas prices so high and just after paying tuition and books. anyone have any suggestions to offer??

um i thinks if your ticket was a yr ago you should be able to take defensive driving again.

lawyers are easier to deal with than going to court. or you can take dd, once every 12 months.

streetstang03 · 09-08-2005, 11:36 PM

i dont know if im still eligible for DD though. i got a ticket around this same time last year and Im pretty sure it hasnt been a year yet

does anyone know how much it usually is to get the ticket taken care of by a lawyer?? i hope its not over $200

should be about the cost of the ticket (maybe $20 more or so)

He's right, usually the cost for a lawyer to get it dismissed is usually a tad bit more than what you would have paid if you just went and paid the fine. If indeed you aren't eligible for DD then I'd go with the probation.

streetstang03 · 09-09-2005, 12:42 AM

if i go before the judge and ask for probation and he denies it, can I still get a lawyer and try to get it dismissed??

and when I do go ask for probation, should I simply ask for probation, or saying something like
"I come before you, Judge, to ask for probation. As a college student, i dont have much extra money to spend. since I just payed tuition/books and with rising gas prices, I simply cannot afford to have my insurance rates go up. I made a mistake by speeding and am willing to admit that I broke the law. I hope you understand and grant me my request."

not exactly that...but along those lines...??

my last two speeding tickets I just waited till I got an advertisement in the mail for a lawyer, called em, paid them over the phone, and that was that. Each just involved the payment and like 2 or 3 months probation. It could end up being cheaper to go to court and talk to the judge, but to me, time is money, and going downtown sucks balls so I'd rather sit at my desk and call a lawyer's office.

75 bucks if you do it through a good lawyer. 3 months no tickets and it's gone.

call 210-349-6000. they will get it thrown out or get you deffered. all it took me was a phone call and was cheaper then my ticket.

Same here. They mail out stuff to you just wait a few days. They get a daily list from sapd and send out letters. I last paid a little LESS than the fine on the ticket for mine and got 60 days probation that just enede 8-31.WooHoo.

i used him for two tickets - no hassle, cheaper then paying the tickets, and a good experience overall :jeff:
