How Many Points Can I Get for Speeding in New York?

What are the Penalties for a Speeding Violation in New York?
While it may seem minor, speeding on New York roads can result in serious legal issues for motorists, regardless of the reasoning.
There are a number of penalties that may be levied on drivers of non-commercial vehicles who are caught exceeding the speed limit, many of which far outweigh a simple slap on the wrist, but the most common penalties are fines and prison time.

"He was always calm and patient with me."Martin is absolutely the best at what he does! He helped me from beginning to end with an improper cell phone use ticket. He made himself available for me consistently and returned my calls if he wasn't able to speak. He explained things in detail and answered all my questions. I literally bugged this man with questions because of my anxiety and he was always calm and patient with me. On the date of my court hearing, I walk right in and right out as he tells me I got your case dismissed. I had the biggest smile on my face and I was certainly relieved. Hands down he is an excellent communicator and is surely effective! Thank you, Martin!Tasha

"The judges in the courts we were in knew who he was and liked him."Martin Kron and his office did a wonderful job helping me with traffic tickets that were more than 3 years old!!! The judges in the courts we were in knew who he was and liked him and his professionalism. His associates in his office were very very nice, timely and helpful. He was always reachable and actually made the experiment fun... I was worried I would have to pay high fines because I had not done anything about these tickets for so many years, but because of Martin and his relationships with the courts, I really got great fines with no points added to my license!!! I forwarded his information to several of my friends because we finished so quickly. I would refer him again at any time.Darra

"The best decision I made."
I highly recommend Martin Kron & Associates. I had a great experience. A good friend recommended me to Marty last year when I received a speeding ticket in NYC. Marty knows the process extremely well, listened & answered all of my questions, and ultimately got my ticket dismissed. In addition, during the past 20 months, when I had questions regarding the adjournments and processes, all of the people in his office were extremely responsive, professional and great at answering all of my questions. Before getting the referral to Marty, I called a few other traffic law firms that I found online to possibly handle the ticket. They all sounded like ticket factories with no real service and no real people behind you. Having Marty or one of his attorneys representing you in NYC traffic court was the best decision I made and is 100% the right answer. I got a great result and felt that I had the A-team on my side. If you get a traffic ticket in NYC, I would call Martin Kron...

"Martin is the perfect person for this job."
As a former NYS Traffic Law Judge and having previously sat where the Judges before him now sit, Martin is the perfect person for this job. Besides a plethora of experience on and off the bench, he's kind and honest, he listens and is attentive to your concerns, is straightforward and most importantly, gives out reasonable expectations. He always returns phone calls in a timely manner and makes himself accessible even on weekends. And to top it off, he even has a sense of humor. Hope I never have to hire him again, but if the situation arises, he's my go-to guy!
