You might be worried about the impact a ticket will have on your insurance, or whether a suspension could affect your ability to get to work.

How It Works, Step by Step

If you have received a traffic ticket returnable at Chesterfield Town Court, the first step is to reach out to us with the details of your ticket. Most people either call or email us a photo or scan of the ticket. We review the ticket carefully, looking at the alleged violation, the officer’s notes, and the court information. We will ask you about the circumstances of the stop and any prior history that might be relevant. This helps us decide on the best way to approach your case.

Once you decide to hire us, we handle all the paperwork to notify the court that we are your attorney. This means the court will communicate with us directly about your case, and you will not have to appear unless it becomes absolutely necessary. We then negotiate with the prosecutor and appear in Chesterfield Town Court on your behalf. Our goal is to get the charges reduced or dismissed if possible, or to minimize the impact on your record and your life. We keep you informed about any offers or developments, and you have the final say in how to proceed.

After a resolution is reached, we make sure you know exactly what is required of you, whether it is paying a fine, taking a course, or following up with the Department of Motor Vehicles. We do not leave you guessing about what comes next. If your ticket is dismissed or reduced to a non-moving violation, we explain what that means for your license and insurance. If you have questions after your case is over, we are still available to help.
