Need a Attorney for your recent Traffic Violation?


Have you recently received a traffic and/or moving violation in the Buffalo area?  New York State employs a point based penalty system for traffic and moving violations. If a driver receives more than 11 points within an eighteen month period, the driver may be subject to a driving privilege suspension.  Additionally, if one receives three traffic misdemeanor / summons during any consecutive 18 month period, their driver’s license maybe revoked for up to six months.  Although it may seem simpler to submit a plea through mail, one may not know what the ramifications of submitting a plea via mail will bring.
