Just $35 For Most Speeding Tickets in St. Peters Missouri

A simple speeding ticket in St Peters Missouri can handled with relative ease by an experienced attorney. And this is precisely why we keep our fees so low (because why charge more for a routine set of procedures that we complete many times a day at our office anyway). But the unfortunate reality is that not very many people actually get in touch with an attorney to get their ticket taken care of. Instead they simply pay the fine listed on the back of the citation, and wash their hands of the matter.

But this ends up being a costly decision (for reasons that I’ll get to in a second). We have had several people call us over the years to inquire about our St Peters Missouri speeding ticket services. After we explain our process and state our fees (which are usually $35), we then let the potential client know that after the ticket is fixed, the court will assess a fine of somewhere in the neighborhood of $250 (that can be paid off over the course of two to three months). Once this information is relayed, these particular clients take another look at the back of the ticket, which states that if they were to pay the court now, all they have to pay is $100 (which is obviously less than $250). It is at this point that we try as best we can to describe the consequences of paying that $100 fine to the court (instead of hiring us).

When you pay the fine on your ticket (the one listed on the back), the court considers this an admission of guilt (in other words, you are admitting that you were in fact speeding). Once this is recorded, the court will send the information to Jefferson City, and the state will assess a certain number of points to your permanent driving record. The number of points you receive will depend upon the severity of the ticket (if you were speeding 10 miles above the limit, you will receive far less points than if you were travelling 25 miles above). It is the existence of points on your driving record will lead directly to way higher car insurance premiums.

Why will your automobile insurance provider jack up your monthly rates? Because they will use the points as proof that you are a person who disregards traffic laws, and are therefore a much higher risk to end up in a car accident (which they would have to pay out on). With this excuse in hand, they will jack up your rates (so as to compensate for that added risk). And the other reason is simple: insurance companies will search for any excuse they can find to increase your rates (its what they do).

So what can we do for you instead? What makes us so much better than simply pleading guilty to the ticket? Our team will work closely with the local prosecutor to get the ticket reduced from a moving violation down to a non-moving violation. A non-moving violation does not come with any points to your record. And if there are no points on your record, then you will not have to worry about increased costs (or run the risk of losing your license due to a suspension). So please do get in touch with us as soon as possible!
