Speeding Tickets

A single speeding ticket can have a dramatic impact on your life.  We have all been there.  A beautiful day, the windows are down, great music on the radio and you lose track of how fast you are going.  Suddenly the day is ruined when those dreaded flashing lights appear in your rear view mirror.  

Receiving a speeding ticket not only ruins your day but it also has a number of costs associated with it.  Some are immediately apparent while others are less obvious.  The costs of a speeding ticket include:

• Points on your driver license

• Possible suspension or revocation of your driver license

• Fines and surcharges

• Increased insurance rates

• Time lost in court

The Shelton Law Firm can help you reduce or eliminate these costs.  In fact, we give you peace of mind by offering a money back guarantee.  Click here for a more in depth discussion of speeding tickets and how they can adversely affect your life.

Traffic Tickets

A single traffic stop in Putnam County often generates multiple traffic tickets.  A Shelton Law Firm lawyer can help.  We are familiar with the Putnam County courts and represent clients who receive traffic tickets for non-speeding violations including:

• Cell phone (VTL 1225-c)

• Electronic device/texting (VTL 1225-d)

• Following too closely (tailgating) (VTL 1129)

• Running a red light (VTL 1111(d))

• Running a stop sign (VTL 1172)

• Failing to obey a traffic control device (VTL 1110(a))

• Failing to mover over (VTL 1144(a))

• Failing to signal (VTL 1163(a))

• Failing to yield 

• Unsafe lane change (VTL 1128(a))

• Failing to stop for a school bus (VTL 1174(a))

Put Our Experience To Work For You

Pleading guilty to a traffic ticket can be very costly.  For example, pleading guilty to speeding 86 mph in a 55 mph zone will cost you $1,143 in fines, fees, and surcharges ($600 fine + $93 surcharge + $450 driver responsibility assessment fee).  In addition, your driver license will be suspended if you receive another speeding ticket conviction within the next 18 months.  Even worse, combine this speeding ticket with a cell phone ticket and you are facing immediate suspension of your license.  So think twice about signing the guilty section of your traffic ticket and dropping it in the mail.   

The better choice is to let the Shelton Law firm handle your traffic ticket defense.  The Shelton Law Firm knows how to defend clients charged with traffic violations in Putnam County.  In most cases, your traffic attorney can have your appearance waived so that you do not have to show up in court.  In addition, we know how to reduce the points and fines associated with traffic tickets and how to avoid an increase in your insurance rate.  Our money back guarantee gives you the confidence and peace of mind to know that your traffic ticket lawyer will zealously defend your rights.
