Moreover, your auto insurance company may decide to cancel your insurance coverage based on the outcome of your case.
What is the Procedure in Walden Village Traffic Court?-
Plea Discussions: I have 36 years of experience representing clients charged with traffic offenses, both serious and minor, in New York traffic courts. As a result of my vast experience in this area of law, I have honed my negotiating skills and understand how prosecutors strategize in traffic cases. I will examine the evidence in your case and determine whether the officer had probable cause to stop your vehicle in the first place. I will also scrutinize other aspects of your case, such as whether the radar gun reading was accurate, so that I can get your traffic charges dismissed or reduced.
Before trial, I will speak with the police officer and/or the prosecutor and try to achieve a favorable outcome to your case. If the police officer charged you for more than one traffic offense on the same ticket, I will attempt to get the traffic charges merged so that you face fewer points on your license.
- Going to Trial: The best way for you to avoid serious penalties is to have an experienced attorney who is prepared for trial. I prepare every case as though it is headed for trial. If your case goes to trial in Walden Village Traffic Court, I will question witnesses, challenge the opposition’s evidence and argue vigorously to help you win in court.
Do not plead guilty to a traffic violation in Walden Village, NY without first speaking with an experienced attorney. Regardless of the circumstances of your traffic charge, it is crucial that you speak with an experienced traffic attorney prior to making any final decisions about how to proceed in your case. Police officers make mistakes, particularly when they’ve been on the road for a long period of time.
A skilled traffic attorney will go over the details of your traffic stop and help you determine all your available legal options. For example, if the police officer did not have probable cause to stop your vehicle, or if the radar gun used to register your speed was faulty, an experienced attorney may be able to challenge the evidence and get your traffic charges dismissed. Statistics show that hiring an attorney significantly increases your chances of winning your case. When you retain my services, I will bring 36 years of experience with me to the negotiating table and, if necessary, the courtroom.
