If you’ve gotten a ticket or fines recently you should seek Fleischer Law Firm’s Somerset County tickets and fines Lawyers. A speeding ticket, reckless driving charge, DWI charge, or another arrest for a New Jersey traffic offense can grow into a serious legal problem if not handled correctly. Many people think they can pay a fine and move on, only to suffer long-term consequences. Did you know pleading or being found guilty of a traffic offense in New Jersey may cost you a fine and jail time? Or loss of driving privileges? Even higher insurance premiums? If a car accident left someone else injured, you could face a lawsuit and held responsible for the accident.

If you are convicted of a moving violation, the N.J. Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) can add points to your driving record. Drivers who get 6 or more points within 3 years will be assessed a surcharge. Drivers who accumulate 12 or more points on their record will have their license suspended. Having points on your license will also increase your insurance rates.
