Fight Your Traffic Ticket in Wawayanda Town CourtIf you appear in court without legal representation, you may be at risk of severe penalties, including points on your license, suspension of your driver’s license and even jail time. A conviction for a multiple-point offense could leave you with too many points on your license, causing the court to suspend your license for a very long time. Beyond that, your insurance company will receive notice of your conviction and may opt to cancel your coverage rather than continue as your auto insurance provider.
A skilled traffic attorney can guide you through the complicated legal system in New York and make sure you come out of this process with minimum fines and your license intact. When I represent you in Wawayanda Traffic Court, I will provide you with a strong defense against the charges, whether they include speeding, failure to yield, running a red light or any other traffic violation.

Don’t underestimate the effects of a traffic conviction on your driving record. Many people make the mistake of pleading guilty to a traffic ticket simply because they assume they must be guilty. Do not assume anything. Speak with a knowledgeable NY traffic attorney before you arrive at any conclusions about your case. A guilty plea to a moving violation in Wayayanda or anywhere else in NY could have significant consequences, including:
- The traffic court will notify the NY Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) about your traffic conviction. The DMV will then put the conviction on your driving record, which can affect your insurance rates and your driving privileges in the state. Even out-of-state drivers can be hit with points on their license, surcharges and other penalties when they return to their home state because the New York DMV will notify the other state.
- The traffic court judge may slap you with fines, monetary penalties and other court costs related to your traffic offense. These additional costs can be difficult to cover right away, especially if you are also subject to rising insurance rates as a result of your conviction. That’s why I will fight to minimize the monetary penalties and work hard to get your traffic charges dismissed or significantly reduced.
- Your auto insurance company may raise your insurance rates or even decide to drop you from coverage entirely, depending on the nature of your traffic offense and whether you have any prior convictions on your driving record.
- The Wayayanda Traffic Court judge may suspend or revoke your driver’s license, depending on the severity of your traffic violation.
In most cases, you will not need to appear in court to answer your traffic violation – as long as you’ve got legal representation. I believe that every person deserves a strong legal defense when facing a traffic charge. That’s why I will do everything in power to help you beat your traffic charges. I will also make sure that I am always available to answer any questions you have about your case, discuss legal strategies and explore legal options for challenging your ticket.
The strategy I use in court varies, depending on the type of traffic violation you are accused of committing, the strength of the prosecution’s evidence and the facts of your traffic stop. It may be possible for me to raise a number of different legal and factual defenses when I argue your case in Wayayanda Court. I may be able to get your ticket downgraded or even dismissed.
