Do I need a lawyer?
Maybe yes, maybe no…Every case is different and part of your free consultation is determining whether hiring an attorney is a smart decision for you.
With TicketHelp, you are NEVER under any obligation to hire the traffic ticket attorney you consult with. The attorney you consult with understands that some relationships may continue beyond the initial free consultation and some will end with the consultation. That is the nature of our business. We understand this and we embrace it.
Your consultation with a traffic ticket attorney is your opportunity to better assess and understand your particular situation. Part of that assessment is deciding whether you will ultimately need or want to hire a traffic ticket lawyer to fight your speeding ticket or help clear a suspended driver license. The decision to retain a traffic ticket lawyer to help with your traffic ticket, suspended driver license or other driving related issue is a combination of a few different factors. Every situation is different. In making your decision, you should consider:
How severe is your traffic law problem?
The more serious the potential consequences are the more likely it is you’ll want an attorney at your side. Are you facing driver license points? Insurance increases? Driver license suspension? CDL or employment Issues? All of the above?
How complicated is your situation?
Perhaps it’s something not too severe but nevertheless somewhat complicated to figure out. Traffic Courts and the DMV don’t always make things easy for people. In fact, some industry insiders suggest they purposely keep things confusing (unsure what to do or how to do it, people are less likely to fight and more likely to pay).
Where is your case?
The farther you live or work from the court(s) in question and the more time it will take to handle your case the more likely you are to hire a traffic lawyer to assist.
How much will a traffic ticket attorney cost?
While you are likely to find most traffic ticket lawyer fees quite reasonable, everyone’s financial situation is different. You’ll need to consider the cost relative to your potential liability and your personal financial situation.
Are you confident a traffic lawyer can help?
When you consult with your attorney, ask yourself…Do I feel comfortable with this attorney? Is he experienced? What are the chances of a favorable outcome?
A good traffic ticket attorney…
Will take the time to consult with you and give you an honest assessment of your case.
Should never take the case if he doesn’t feel it is justified and should tell you outright if you don’t need an attorney.
Whatever decision you make should be an informed decision. After consulting with a traffic ticket attorney, you may or may not decide to retain the attorney. In any situation, the decision making process starts with your free traffic ticket lawyer consultation.
