When it comes to a Marshall Missouri speeding ticket, there are really only a couple viable options: 1) you could represent yourself (and hope for the best); or 2) you could hire an experienced traffic defense lawyer to help get your ticket fixed. If you get in touch with us, we will begin working on your case immediately. But if you choose the first option (the route of self-representation), there are several pitfalls that you should be made aware of (because most people are under the mistaken impression that a traffic ticket is “no big deal”).
Only $150 for Most Marshall Missouri Arrest WarrantsFirst of all, the biggest mistake most people make when dealing with a Marshall Missouri speeding ticket is to pay the fine listed on the back of the citation. This of course seems like the right action to take (especially if you were in fact speeding). But it turns out to be the biggest mistake you could make! Why? Because when you pay the fine, this is taken by the state of Missouri to be an admission of guilt (in other words, you are pleading guilty to the underlying charge of speeding).
Only $225 for Most Marshall Missouri Driving While Suspended TicketsThis is the point in time when most people say to me, “So what? I was speeding. I should just pay the fine and be done with it!” But here’s the problem: when you pay the fine (and therefore admit guilt), the state will assess a certain number of points to your permanent driving record. What are points? “Points” are like little red flags that make it appear as if you are the type of driver who does not wish to follow the law. It is the existence of points on your driving record that will lead directly to much higher car insurance.
Why would your auto insurance provider do this to you? Because from a statistical point of view, people with points on their record are far more likely to get into a car accident. In order to cover this increased risk, your provider will jack up your premiums accordingly. How big of a bump are we talking about? Even one or two points will result in an increase of about 35% above your current rates. This is quite a bit of extra money going out the door (that will last month after month for the next several years).
On the other hand, if you were to hire us, we would concentrate on getting your ticket fixed!! We do this by working closely with the local prosecutor to get your speeding ticket (which the state describes as a “moving violation”) reduced down to a non-moving violation (such as “Illegal Parking” or “Defective Equipment”). This is because non-moving violations do not come with any points to your permanent driving record. And if there are no points to worry about, then none of the above-described messiness will come your way! So please do get in touch with us as soon as possible, and we will begin working on your case immediately!
