Before you call about a traffic ticket

General guidance for this kind of matter, not advice about your situation and not specific to this firm.

Questions worth asking

• Have you handled this specific offence before, and what happened?
• Is an early resolution realistic, or is this likely headed to trial?
• Does a conviction here affect my licence or insurance?
• Who appears in court for me, you or someone else at the firm?

How this work is usually billed

Traffic matters are commonly billed as a flat fee per charge, sometimes bundled if more than one ticket came from the same stop. Ask whether court appearances beyond the first are included in that fee.

What to have ready

The ticket or notice itself, your licence, and the date of your first appearance or trial.
