Frequently asked
Direct answers from the attorney who handles these matters.
Most asked
Generally no. The DMV Traffic Violations Bureau does not allow plea bargaining the way local courts do, so cases are usually decided after a hearing on the merits. That makes preparation and cross-examination of the officer especially important.
Question 2
If the judge finds you guilty, points and fines apply, but you may appeal the decision to the DMV Appeals Board within the required time. We can review whether an appeal is appropriate in your case.
