Why Fight Your New York Speeding Ticket?

There are numerous reasons for fighting a speeding ticket and hiring a lawyer to handle your case. First, you have someone with experience on your side and you can avoid trying to handle the situation on your own. Simply paying the ticket is essentially admitting guilt, and the DMV will automatically assess points on your record based on the violation. Points add up to increased auto insurance premiums, and if too many points are accumulated within a certain time period, you run the risk of a driver's license suspension.
