85 years of combined experience

There is one basic rule in these types of cases; DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY PLEAD GUILTY TO THE CHARGE. It’s easy to send in your ticket with a guilty plea.

But before you do that, consider what an experienced attorney can do for you:

• Usually, Sommers & Sommers LLP can obtain a reduction for you, and in some cases, even an outright dismissal.
• The benefit is obvious: You will maintain a better driving record and may avoid higher insurance premiums. If a trial proves necessary both Donald and Andrew Sommers have extensive court experience in the area of motor vehicle violations.
• There may also be other reasons to consider retaining us. If your ticket was issued in connection with an accident, a guilty plea could detrimentally impact your liability for that accident. This is something that we will discuss with you in detail.

If you have a traffic ticket we will be happy to meet with you at your convenience.
