A Washington State Speeding Ticket Lawyer Can Protect Your Rights

 
A speeding ticket is the most common variety of Washington traffic ticket. Our Washington speeding ticket lawyers have handled these tickets in every county from Whatcom down to Thurston. Everyone knows what speeding is – driving at a speed above the legal limit. You can be stopped and given a ticket if you travel just one mile over the speed limit!
 
Obviously, that doesn’t normally happen, but you easily could be stopped for going 5 mph over the limit – especially in 20 MPH zones. Most people think that fighting a ticket is a lost cause, and sometimes it is. However, our Washington State speeding ticket lawyers successfully defend against speeding tickets in hundreds of cases every year. These are honest, hard-working people, just like you. And when faced with the short and long-term ramifications from receiving a WA speeding ticket, it makes sense to do everything in your power to keep a speeding ticket off of your driving record.

Our Washington speeding ticket attorneys are commonly asked by clients if there is any way to challenge a speeding ticket. Every case is different, but our team of legal professionals will fight to have your speeding ticket dismissed outright, and if this is not possible they will do everything in their power to keep it off of your driving record. It makes sense to fight for your rights when you consider the fact that not only do speeding tickets include hefty fines, but they often lead to your insurance rates skyrocketing for years to come.

The Basics of WA Speeding Ticket Defense

 
Many people who are ticketed for speeding in Washington attempt to fight their ticket on their own. We’ve heard many of these self-styled defenses over the years, and seldom do they prove effective. For instance, arguing with the Officer or Judge that you were not going 70 mph, but rather only 61 mph in a 60 mph zone, simply means you just admitted to speeding. We have also heard people attempting to use as a defense the fact that the Officer stated the defendant was going 70 mph but the ticket says he was going 65 in a 60 mph zone. This is not a defense. It simply means the officer was cutting you a break on the fine amount by reducing the speed.
 
Another point to consider is that the law does not have an intent requirement. This means it doesn’t matter if you intended to speed or not. As a result, not knowing what the speed limit was, having broken speedometer, going with the “flow of traffic,” amongst other reasons, does not excuse you from speeding. Obviously, any defense built around these concepts is going to fail when it is presented to a judge.
 
This underscores the fact that being well-versed in the law is essential if you are going to attempt to fight against your Washington State speeding ticket. Our team of Washington speeding ticket attorneys understands the procedural rules governing traffic infractions like speeding, and we know specifically what to look for in every case. First, we look at procedural issues that deal with whether the ticket was properly filed, or if any mistakes were made concerning WA State ticket guidelines. We also evaluate the calibration and testing of any laser speed device utilized when the ticket was written.
 
These are the methods that build an aggressive defense, and it requires knowledge, experience, and legwork. This is why it is especially important to hire a Washington speeding ticket lawyer who has handled numerous tickets, and is extremely familiar with the technicalities involved in the law.
 
Speeding Toward a Resolution
 
Washington State speeding tickets can be expensive. If you’ve had multiple tickets you could face a license suspension or even a probation period. Insurance rates are already expensive, and a speeding ticket could raise them substantially for years to come. Also, fines will be higher with every MPH over the legal limit you were travelling. Fines will double if you are caught speeding in a school zone or a construction zone, and under state statute, a Judge cannot reduce the penalty for school zone and construction zone tickets.
 
When you consider all of these facts, it makes sense to hire a Washington speeding ticket lawyer who knows the ropes, and can make sure you are doing everything in your power to avoid a negative judgment. We handle our WA speeding ticket cases on a low, one-time fee basis that usually runs between $300 and $400. When you consider the alternatives, it is a bargain that makes sense.
 
Time is valuable, so let us handle your WA speeding ticket for you. Our attorneys will work on your behalf, as your personal advocates, and in most cases there is nothing more you need do then let us handle all of the details of your case from beginning to end. Our Washington speeding ticket attorneys will file all of your paperwork with the court, so you can rest easy knowing that the issue is being handled by an experienced legal professional.
