Never pay a traffic fine or plead guilty to a traffic charge in Warwick Town, NY before speaking with an attorney. Even if you believe you committed a traffic offense, it is still in your best interest to consult a knowledgeable traffic attorney prior to making any decisions about how to proceed. Police officers are not infallible; they can make mistakes. A skilled attorney will look over the details of your case and help you explore all legal options when fighting your traffic charge. For example, if the radar gun reading was flawed or the police officer who ticketed you did not have probable cause to stop your vehicle in the first place, an attorney may be able to challenge the evidence.

When I represent you in Warwick Town Court, I will negotiate with the other side and, if necessary, fight for you in court so that your traffic charges are dismissed or reduced.
