Know The Risks Of Paying A Speeding Ticket

At , one of the most common traffic offenses we defend is speeding tickets. If you have received a speeding ticket in Harris County or the surrounding areas, you may be wondering if and how you can fight it. Law enforcement officials may encourage you to pay the ticket right away to avoid extra fines. However, paying the ticket is not your only option, despite what they may tell you.

If you pay the ticket, you are essentially pleading guilty. You will either incur points on your driving record or you will go to traffic school to avoid the points. Alternatively, you can plead not guilty and hire a lawyer to help you fight the ticket.
