Is it Worth Hiring a Lawyer for a Speeding Ticket in NY? 

Deciding whether to hire a lawyer for a speeding ticket in New York depends on several factors, including the severity of the offense, potential penalties, and personal circumstances.

Here are some reasons why it might be worth considering:

  • Reduced Penalties: A lawyer can help negotiate to reduce fines, points on your license, or even have the ticket dismissed, which can save you money in the long run.
  • Legal Expertise: Lawyers understand the nuances of traffic laws and can identify any errors or weaknesses in the case against you.
  • Insurance Impact: Reducing or eliminating points on your license can prevent increases in your insurance premiums.
  • Time and Convenience: A lawyer can handle court appearances and paperwork, saving you time and hassle.
  • Serious Consequences: If your speeding ticket is severe or part of a larger issue (like multiple offenses), legal representation can be crucial.

A New York speeding ticket attorney from Martin A. Kron & Associates, P.C. brings a wealth of legal expertise that can be crucial in navigating the complexities of traffic law. They can identify procedural errors, negotiate with prosecutors, and may even get the ticket dismissed or penalties reduced.

Furthermore, if the speeding ticket puts you at risk of license suspension, hiring an experienced speeding attorney becomes even more critical. They can advocate on your behalf to retain your driving privileges. Additionally, a lawyer can save you time and stress by handling court appearances and negotiations, making the process more convenient.

    "So personable and nice."
    When I called the Firm I was very hesitant in even hiring an attorney but after speaking with the attorney I felt very comfortable in my decision in hiring an attorney. I had a reckless driving summons in NY and the attorney Lindsay Kron met me at court. She was so personable and nice. She was able to have my summons reduced to a no point no criminal violation with a minimal fine. This Firm is amazing and did a great job. I would definitely recommend them in the future.
    Rachel
    "BEST DEAL IN NYC!!!"
    Had tons of old traffic tickets in NYC. Mr. Kron got them reopened and thrown out. I got emails all the time telling what was going on but I never had to appear.
    Jack
    "I am so glad I chose his firm, his fee was well worth it."
    I am very happy with Mr. Kron's help. He had my ticket for driving with lapsed insurance in New Jersey (1st offense, no bad driving history) dismissed, all I had to pay were $33.00 in court fees. I am so glad I chose his firm, his fee was well worth it.

    "We were up first and out first."
    Marty met me 15 minutes before court was due to start exactly as we agreed. He spoke to the prosecutor and as indicated in the title, cut the points on my two tickets from 8 to 2, reduced my fines by a third, and we were out of court in 45 minutes. Had they started on time it would have been only 30 minutes instead of the hours it might have been with all the people that showed up. We were up first and out first. I bet he was there quite a bit earlier than I was to accomplish this feat.

    "Got me a great outcome!!"
    Just found out that my careless driving and my 10 over speed were both dismissed! I was freaked out since I drive commercially and can't have points on my license! I am so happy that the lawyers at MAK were able to take my case and get me a great outcome!!!!! In the past I hired another traffic attorney and all he did was take my money and I still got found guilty. Martin cost a little more but he was well worth it cuz we won!
    Guillermo
    "Honest with regards to the whole matter and never gave me a false sense of security"
    I would like to personally thank Mr. Martin Kron for his help in getting a no left turn moving violation dismissed. I had a clean driving record with no moving violation and after speaking with Mr. Kron he made no guarantees and was honest with regards to the whole matter and never gave me a false sense of security as to what the final turn out would be. He said he would only do his best and I gave him my case. I was extremely worried because it was an injustice based on the circumstances and Mr. Kron was able to get the moving violation to dismiss and I thank him very much. I recommend Mr. Kron for traffic violations without hesitation, and again I say "Thank You" Mr. Kron.

    "I was out of the court in 20 minutes."
    Marty is a professional, and a very caring person. Recently on my way to daughters graduation, I entered HOV lane at GW Bridge. On his advise I pleaded guilty but the points were waived. He met me at the court and we went before the judge right away and I was out of the court in 20 minutes.

    "SAVED MY LICENSE"
    My lawyer helped save my license from a suspension. If I can't drive I can't work or feed my family. They were always on top of my case and helped me continue to drive for a living. I spoke with all three partners and each one knew about my case and helped each step of the way. Vanessa the manager was so helpful and didn't mind that I called every day.
