Why You Need Legal Representation for a Traffic Ticket

Traffic tickets can be stressful, annoying, and sometimes unavoidable. So, unless you’ve studied traffic law in your province, or others, chances are you are going to end up with a traffic ticket at some point. 

Different ways people deal with a traffic ticket:

There are typically three ways to deal with a ticket:

  1. Pay it
  2. Fight it in court yourself
  3. Get professional representation

Option one may work for some people, but things can get tough if you accrue points on your licence or a hefty fine. The second scenario is not advisable, as you can end up with an even heavier fine than the one you started off with. Read on to learn why getting professional legal representation is a good idea.

Why fighting a traffic ticket is a good idea

A traffic ticket can have far-reaching effects on your life. Getting a ticket overturned can make a huge difference, especially if you have had more than one ticket in the recent past.  

  • Demerits and Convictions:

 If you are found guilty of a traffic offence, you may be fined, gain demerit points on your licence, or may face imprisonment depending on the severity of your offence. If you accrue enough points (15 or more), your driving licence can be suspended or completely revoked.

  • Insurance Premiums:

Auto insurance companies are known for increasing your rates over any little thing. Depending on the ticket you receive and your conviction, your insurance payments may see a significant rise. Insurance companies have been known to increase premiums from 25% to a whopping 300% for up to three years because of traffic violations. 

  • Traffic Law Experience:

Paralegals and lawyers with traffic law experience know the ins and outs of how the system works. They know what paperwork you need and how to make a good argument. They also know how to build a strong case surrounding your individual circumstances. Additionally, they are familiar with the loyal court and its various court officials. Legal professionals can mold their practices to official court procedures and preferences, resulting in a quicker resolution for you.

While hiring a traffic law expert may seem like a costly manoeuvre at the onset, it can actually save you a lot of money (think premiums!) and hassle in the long term.
