Atlanta Traffic Ticket Lawyer

Atlanta is one of the most congested traffic cities in the country. With tens of thousands of cars on the road every day, this means constant Atlanta traffic citations being issued by Atlanta Police Department and Georgia State Patrol officers. Most Georgia traffic citations are misdemeanor criminal offenses subject to punishment of up to 12 months in jail, and fines of up to $1,000. Atlanta traffic tickets mean you are facing fines, classes, points on your Georgia drivers license, increased insurance rates, personal time spent in court, and even possibly jail time in certain circumstances.

How Can an Atlanta Traffic Ticket Attorney Help You?

 

  1. An Atlanta traffic violation lawyer can explain to you clearly the nature of your traffic violation, what the minimum and maximum punishment is for the charge, and discuss any and all defenses to your Atlanta traffic citation.

  2. Defenses can include a defective citation, inadequate evidence, unavailable witnesses, and failure to prove the traffic violation beyond a reasonable doubt.

  3. An Atlanta traffic citation attorney can appear in court on your behalf for most preliminary matters saving you the need to appear in court multiple times as your case is moving forward.

  4. An Atlanta traffic ticket attorney can speak to the prosecutor on your behalf to work on getting your charges dismissed or reduced prior to court.

  5. An attorney has the training, knowledge, and experience to correctly prepare your case for trial if that is how you would like to resolve your citation.
