    Successfully got it reduced to a parking ticket
    Alex handled my bogus traffic violation on the infamous Rt 17 in perfect fashion. After an initial phone call and payment, the next time I heard from Alex was after he had already gone to court on my behalf and successfully got it reduced to a parking ticket. I didn't have to do a thing. Well worth the money compared to 5 years of jacked insurance premiums.

    Frequently Asked Questions
    • Can I refuse a breathalyzer test?
      You can refuse a breathalyzer, but there are consequences. States have implied consent laws, so refusal often leads to automatic license suspension or revocation. It may also be used as evidence against you in court.
    • Can a DUI be removed from my record?
      It's possible to have a DUI expunged or sealed, depending on state laws and circumstances surrounding the case. Factors like the offense's severity, time since conviction, and any additional offenses play a role. Consult a lawyer for options.
    • What are common defenses in DUI cases?
      Common defenses include questioning the legality of the traffic stop, challenging the accuracy of breathalyzer tests, and disputing the arresting officer’s observations. Each case is unique, so a tailored defense is necessary for favorable results.
    • What is an ignition interlock device?
      An ignition interlock device is a breathalyzer connected to a vehicle’s ignition system, requiring the driver to blow a sober breath sample before starting the car. They are often mandated for repeat offenders or high BAC levels to ensure safe driving.
