Elizabeth Traffic Ticket Lawyers

Although traffic tickets may seem minor, the reality is traffic violations are expensive. If you or a member of your family has been issued a ticket it is important to remember that you have options. Don’t simply check off the guilty box and put a check in the mail to cover the cost of the fine. Depending on the offense, admitting guilt could result in a handful of points being added to your driving record. Insurance companies keep track of these points and will increase your premium by hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars for even trivial traffic offenses. In addition, the accumulation of points on your driving record could result in a suspension or revocation of your driver’s license. Before you pay that fine, consult with an experienced Elizabeth Traffic Ticket Lawyer at the law offices of LS&P Lawyers. We appear in Elizabeth Municipal Court on a frequent basis and have had great success in receiving favorable outcomes for our clients there.

Elizabeth, New Jersey is a fairly expansive town located in Union County. It lies adjacent to Newark International Airport and is home to Port Elizabeth, the Goethals Bridge, Union County College and a large shopping district. There are nearly a dozen highways and major roadways that traverse Elizabeth, including the New Jersey Turnpike, I-78, the Garden State Parkway, Route 1, Route 9, Route 22, Route 27, and Route 28.

As you might imagine, the number of highways and traffic flow that pass through Elizabeth daily leads to an abundant amount of traffic tickets in the Elizabeth Municipal Court. All traffic offenses including speeding, careless driving and DWI are handled in the municipal court.

Our criminal defense and traffic ticket lawyers have nearly four decades of combined experience. In addition, we have one of the few lawyers in the state of New Jersey to be certified in DWI defense which includes extensive training in the roadside Field Sobriety Tests and Alcotest.

A DWI is considered one of the most serious traffic offenses with equally serious consequences. However, many other traffic offenses carry substantial penalties as well. For example, speeding, careless or reckless driving, and driving without insurance are just a few traffic offenses that carry the possibility of hefty fines, loss of license, community service, mandatory defensive driving courses and accumulation of points. In addition, if your job requires driving or a clean driver’s license then you could be facing unemployment as a result of many New Jersey Traffic Offenses.
