How to Prepare Before You Call Us

If you choose to have us represent you, gather all documents related to your traffic ticket.

If you have a driving record you think is relevant, or if you have had previous tickets, let us know. The more information you provide up front, the better we can prepare your defense.

Make a note of any details about the stop that you remember, where you were, what time it was, what the officer said, and anything else that seems important. Even if it seems minor, sometimes these facts matter. If you were not the driver, or if there was something unusual about the stop, mention it. Bringing us the facts early helps us look for any possible defenses or mistakes on the ticket.

If you have questions about the process or what might happen, write them down and bring them to our first conversation. We want you to feel informed and comfortable with how your case will proceed.
