Last updated on September 26, 2024

An officer may have given you a traffic ticket because they believed you were speeding, parking illegally, driving without a license or violating traffic laws. While a traffic ticket may not seem like a big issue, it can lead to serious consequences.

Our Brunswick attorneys at Sullivan Law are here to help you handle your traffic ticket. We will answer any questions you may have, including:

What should I do if I receive a traffic ticket?

If you receive a traffic ticket, then you should reach out to an attorney to discuss your case. Our attorneys can discuss the seriousness of a traffic ticket, potential consequences and strategies to resolve the issue. The sooner you reach out to us, the sooner we can bring peace back into your life.

What are the possible consequences of a traffic ticket?

The potential consequences of a traffic ticket will often depend on the type of violation. For example, running a red light and speeding could lead to fines and points on your driving and insurance record. However, driving without a license, reckless driving or drunk driving could lead to harsher punishments, such as license suspension and incarceration. It is important to talk to an attorney about your case to address the potential consequences of a traffic ticket.

Can I contest a traffic ticket?

It is possible to appear in court to contest a traffic ticket. A strong legal defense and key pieces of evidence could help mitigate or dismiss charges.

What are common defenses against traffic tickets?

There are several ways to defend against a traffic ticket in court, such as showing that a violation was not committed or the use of inaccurate police equipment. Our attorneys can represent you in court.
