TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS - QUESTIONS ANSWERED

- Strike a plea bargain with the prosecuting authority.
Q: Do I need an attorney?

- Experience is what I offer, having handled thousands of traffic tickets over 30 years of legal practice, in every traffic court in Westchester and Putnam counties and the New York metropolitan area.
Q: What can you expect me to achieve?
- My goal is to obtain a dismissal or reduction of your ticket or tickets to one that will have the least impact on your driver's license.
- If a traffic trial is necessary, I will prepare and conduct a trial in a manner that will give you the best chance of success.
Q: What if I already pled guilty and have a change of mind?
