Clayton and St. Louis, Missouri, Traffic Ticket Lawyer
A conviction for even a minor traffic offense can have serious, damaging and long lasting consequences. Insurance rates can rise and safe driver discounts can be list. Fines can add up and extra points under Missouri's point system can lead to the suspension or revocation of your driver's license.
If you have received a traffic ticket in Missouri or Illinois, contact the criminal and traffic violation defense law firm of the Law Office of Christopher P. Cox, L.L.C. We have successfully handled hundreds of traffic ticket cases since 1988, including charges of:
- Speeding, or driving too fast for traffic conditions
- Running a red light/stoplight
- Improper lane use
- Failure to signal for a turn or lane change
- Failing to yield
- DWI/DUI
- Careless, reckless or imprudent driving
- Driving while suspended
- Driving while revoked
- Overloading a vehicle or driving an otherwise impaired vehicle
- Passing a stopped school bus or overtaking/passing an emergency vehicle
- No insurance
These are all point violations that will go on your driving record if you pay the ticket and plead guilty. We are familiar with court procedures, court staff and traffic violation law, and can work to:
- Argue for complete dismissal of charges
- Keep the violations and points off of your driving record and unseen by your insurance company or employer
- Prevent driver's license suspension and revocation so that you retain your driving privileges
- Obtain a hardship driver's license so that you can continue to drive to work, medical appointments, school and daycare
- Have previous point convictions reopened and removed from your record.
By simply paying a traffic ticket you are pleading guilty to that charge and the violation will go on your record. Before paying your ticket and facing possible fines, points, insurance issues and license revocation, contact our firm for effective legal help.
