Quick Answers
Get instant answers to the most common traffic ticket questions in Miami.
Should I pay my traffic ticket or fight it?
Fight it! Paying means admitting guilt. Points go on your license and insurance goes up for 3 years. Fighting costs less than the insurance increase alone.
How long do I have to respond to a ticket?
You have 30 days from the date on your ticket to respond. Don't wait! The sooner you act, the better your options.
Can I avoid going to court?
Yes! If we find defects in your ticket ($35 service), we file a motion to dismiss. For standard defense ($89), our attorneys appear for you. You stay home.
What's the real cost of just paying the ticket?
A $200 ticket typically costs $1,200-$3,000 total when you include insurance increases over 3 years. Fighting it with us starts at just $35.
