Not all traffic tickets need a lawyer. But some absolutely do.
Let us review your ticket online—for free.
When You Don’t Need a Lawyer
You likely don’t need a traffic lawyer if:
Your ticket is a non-moving violation (e.g., expired tags)
You’re prepared to accept the consequences (points, fines, insurance hikes)
That said—don’t pay anything until you understand the real cost. A quick review with an attorney can prevent long-term damage to your record.
When You Do Need a Lawyer
You should absolutely consult a traffic attorney if:
- You want to avoid points on your license.
- You do not want to risk increased insurance rates.
You’ve had prior tickets in the last 18 months
You were cited for speeding in a construction or school zone
You were charged with reckless driving, excessive speeding, no insurance, or careless & imprudent driving
Your ticket will put you at risk of license suspension
You got a ticket while visiting from out of state
Missouri prosecutors may be willing to amend or reduce your ticket—but that’s often only possible through a lawyer.
