Commonly Asked Questions

How can a traffic violation affect my insurance rates?

Traffic violations can significantly impact your insurance rates. When you receive a ticket, insurance companies may view you as a higher risk, which can lead to increased premiums. In some cases, a serious violation, such as DUI or reckless driving, can result in even steeper hikes in your rates or the cancellation of your policy altogether. To mitigate these effects, it’s advisable to seek legal assistance to potentially reduce the charges or negotiate a plea that minimizes the impact on your driving record and insurance costs.

What are the potential consequences of a DUI charge in New York?

A DUI charge in New York can lead to severe consequences, including hefty fines, license suspension, and even jail time. First-time offenders may face fines ranging from $500 to $1,000, along with a possible jail sentence of up to one year. Additionally, a DUI conviction can result in mandatory alcohol education programs and increased insurance premiums. Given the serious implications, it’s essential to consult with a traffic violation defense lawyer who can help navigate the legal system and work towards the best possible outcome for your case.

Do You Need a Lawyer for Traffic Court?

After getting a ticket or being arrested for a traffic violation, you may wonder: “Do I really need an attorney?” While it is possible to handle your situation without one, doing so is not wise. New York and New Jersey’s legal processes are complicated. Plus, leaving your case’s outcome up to a judge and prosecutors may result in harsher penalties than you might have faced otherwise. 

Instead of going it alone, get the benefits of hiring a lawyer like ours. 

These include:

  • Advice rooted in experience: Attorney Mark has decades of experience. She can use the things she has learned to guide you at every step and help you make smart decisions.
  • Aggressive advocacy: Our lawyer knows how to fight for your rights. You can count on her to negotiate with the prosecution to seek reduced charges or lesser penalties. She can also fight to have your charges dropped.  
  • Reduced stress: With us, you will not have to bear the entire burden of your case. Attorney Mark and our office staff will handle everything, so you can focus on your life, family, and essential day-to-day tasks.

Don't Pay the Ticket, Fight Your Traffic Violation

When you receive a traffic violation, it can be tempting to simply pay the ticket and move on. However, doing so can result in points on your license, increased insurance rates, and potential suspension of your driving privileges. Instead of accepting the consequences, consider hiring a traffic violation defense lawyer to fight the ticket on your behalf.

Our experienced team at The Law Offices of Helene Mark can help you navigate the legal process and work to minimize the impact of the violation. We will review the circumstances of your ticket, gather evidence, and build a strong defense to protect your driving record and minimize the consequences.

Benefits of fighting your traffic violation include:

  • Avoiding increased insurance rates
  • Protecting your driving privileges
  • Potentially reducing or dismissing the charges
  • Piece of mind knowing you have a legal advocate on your side
