You open your mailbox one day to find a surprise: a ticket from a red light camera. In some cases, you remember the incident and simply pay the fine, and you think the problem is solved. But what if you feel you were ticketed unjustly and wish to fight it? In cases like these, you may want to hire an attorney to help you.
Sometimes, fighting a ticket is a really important choice. Paying the fine on a ticket is an admission of guilt that in many cases simply results in points added to your record. While having more points on your record might not seem like a big deal, there are two risks: (1) Too many points can add up to a suspended license (2) Your car insurance premiums can increase.
