Retaining a lawyer to defend your traffic ticket, accident, or arrest is relatively inexpensive compared to having your insurance rates increase over time and having a permanent mark on your driving record. Once points are assessed on your license, it can be very difficult, time consuming, and expensive to get them off of your record. The easiest and most inexpensive way to avoid points and insurance rate increases is to hire a Miami ticket defense lawyer or Fort Lauderdale ticket defense lawyer before the points are assessed on your license. If points have already been assessed on your license, our office, in most circumstances, can help you get them removed by attempting to vacate the underlying charges on which they are based. If the charges can be vacated, the points will be removed from your license and your insurance rates will not go up.
If you think the assessment of a few points on your license is no big deal, think again. Even just a couple of points will increase your insurance rates. Also, if you get enough points on your license within a certain period of time, your license will be suspended which may affect your ability to work and will require you to pay reinstatement fee. If you received a traffic ticket, don’t not pay your ticket but instead immediately contact our offices.
