FotoNeedforSpeed_Undercover.jpgCollier County, Fl.   Florida police issue more than 4 million speeding citations each year.   Most people don't realize that if they pay a ticket, the payment is an automatic admission and adjudication of guilt on their driving record. In addition, points are assessed for all moving violations and can result in a license suspension. Insurance companies use this information as justification to raise insurance rates. 

Traffic ticket defense attorneys at Musca Law help their clients reach the most desirable outcome for traffic violations. We work to prevent driver's license suspension, to mitigate any additional points on your record, and to protect your driving privileges. We represent local Florida residents, over-the-road truck drivers and tourists for all types of traffic violations, including those related to DUI offense. 

Recently we were able to assist one of our clients who was facing very serious traffic violations.  Our client had just signed a lease agreement for a new BMW and on his first day driving his bimmer was caught speeding by police.  Police radar clocked his vehicle traveling 107mph in a 70 mph zone.  He was issued a citation for speeding and upon conducting the traffic stop the police arrested our client for Failure to Register Vehicle.

Our experienced attorneys quickly filed a Motion to Consolidate the Defendant's Criminal Case with the traffic citation and the Motion was granted.  Our attorney aggressively challenged the Failure to Register Vehicle Charge and presented the State with the lease agreement, indicating that our client was not the responsible party for getting the vehicle registered.  The Court agreed with our argument and issued a Nolle Prosse, dismissing the charge against our client.  Because of our attorney's timely actions, both charges were merged and dismissed.  This means our client did not have 4 points assessed to his license and he is able to have his record sealed on the criminal charge.
