Suffolk County Traffic Court Helping Veterans

They serve our country in some of the worst war-torn areas of the world, only to come home and face difficulties. When a veteran loses their legal ability to drive, their lives can quickly take a downward spiral. A court in Suffolk County is trying to come to the aid of veterans by keeping them on the road.

Monthly court sessions are held in Suffolk County specifically for veterans who have received traffic citations. Veterans meet one-on-one with the prosecutor in an effort to have their charges reduced and fines shrunk. The only thing a veteran has to do in return in some cases is attend a training program or seek some form of assistance, especially in cases where a veteran is dealing with PTSD.

According to research, veterans have an increased risk of injury or death as a result of motor vehicle collisions. Post-traumatic stress disorder has been shown to lead to substance abuse problems or erratic behaviors. At times, a veteran’s seemingly reckless driving stems from training they have received in evasive driving techniques.

No matter what the veteran has been pulled over for, one thing is certain: Thousands of dollars in fines and court costs can have a devastating effect on someone just returning home from the military. One court is trying to change that.

FAQ

Your office is in NYC. How do you handle cases statewide?

We have organized a statewide network of attorneys. In our network are both attorneys who work for Feifer & Greenberg and attorneys who work for other firms that regularly provide of-counsel representation to our clients. This statewide network allows us to match clients in a particular county or court with local attorneys who regularly appear on similar matters in the same county or court. It enables us to help clients anywhere in New York State and in our opinion provide particularly effective and affordable representation for our clients. Local attorneys can draw on their particular local experiences and, with travel time and expense removed from the equation, help us keep our legal fees low.

Do you guarantee results?
We can only guarantee that we will provide the best possible client service and legal representation. We can’t guarantee results. These are legal proceedings and we can’t promise you that every case will end in our favor. We will always honestly assess your case (both good and bad) and set realistic expectations during your consultation. We’ll discuss our goals and objectives but no attorney can ever guarantee how a case will conclude.
Should I just pay my ticket or should I fight?

We recommend fighting almost all tickets. Even if the current NY traffic tickets aren’t particularly harmful, you have an incentive to keep your record clean for the future. Convictions quickly lead to surcharges, insurance increases and other complications. You should strongly consider any decision to pay a ticket without fighting.

How can our traffic ticket lawyers help you?

Our lawyers are experienced, prepared attorneys who understand the nuances of fighting traffic tickets. Experience, preparation and good decision making help us to help our clients avoid points, surcharges, insurance increases and the other negatives that can easily result from a traffic ticket.
