Does anyone know of a good lawyer in the area north of Atlanta that can get speeding tickets reduced? -

My son received a speeding ticket in the area just north of Atlanta. In North Carolina any points awarded there will be sent to our insurence. It will double or triple our premium for at least 3 years and we can not afford this. We need to find a lawyer in this area that is known for getting someone going 20 over down to 0 points. Is there anyone like that here?

Call Matlock. Just kidding. Seriously, I m reading these answers and wondering what idiots respond when you ask for a good doctor to set a broken arm, and they respond to just be more careful about breaking your arm. I m assuming that YOU are paying for the insurance that your kid has screwed up and would like to keep YOUR bills down. There are lawyers you can hire who specialize in traffic cases. Simply do an online search for Traffic Lawyers in Atlanta. Problem is, it will cost you more than the combined fine and insurance will, and the chance of reduction or dismissal is still poor. And 20 over isn t simply a mistake in watching his speed, so negotiations with a judge to get a reduction is unlikely. One option may be requiring your son to provide his own insurance which will definitely drive home the consequences of his choices, as right now he s enjoying a lower rate based upon YOUR driving record. But, if you re intent on trying to fight the ticket, then you might want to review these guidelines. http://www.worldlawdirect.com/article/90... Someone s selling a book about how to successfully fight speeding tickets, too, and it seems cheap enough at under $20, but since I don t speed, I ve had no need of it and couldn t say whether it s really useful. http://www.beattraffictickets.com/

Unless your son is facing a possible suspension or revocation...I m not certain that paying an attorney large sums of money is your answer. Review the drivers education courses provided below and contact them first. They may be able to provide you with the information you re seeking and help prevent some of those point assessments your son is facing. I would certainly make my own child pay for the services in an effort to show him the results of ones actions. Driving on the roads in any state is a privilege and not a right. Other drivers have a right to drive on safe roadways. Your son needs to pay attention in the classes and hopefully will slow down! Best wishes.

Your son needs a mother that helps him suffer the consequences of bad decisions, not one that will make it all better. Stop enabling him to have the choice of making the same mistake again simply because mom will make it better for him. Their are others on the roads that value their life and the life of their children. And speeding and drunk driving are the major causes of wrecks that take away those lives.

I do not think a lawyer will be able help you with a speeding ticket. Unless you can prove the police officer has a history of writing false tickets you will be wasting money. I would chance it with the insurance company. I have received speeding tickets before,most when I was under 25 and never had an increase in my insurance. The key, I believe, was that I never made a claim, adjusted my insurance, never missed the premium deadline or gave any reason to my insurance company to re-check my driving record. Its worth a shot unless you know for a fact that your insurance company periodically checks its customers driving records.
