Did you get a traffic ticket for speeding, running a red light, or a similar violation? If so, you should know that paying the fine isn’t always the “easiest way out” of it. Paying that ticket can lead to insurance hikes and permanent marks on your driving record.
You have the right to challenge your traffic citation. Working with an experienced traffic ticket lawyer can help you avoid the costly consequences and keep your driving record clear.
Our traffic ticket lawyers at Traffic Court Buddy offer professional help fighting citations issued in Livonia. Our three-step process makes the process easy. Contact us today to get started!
If you pay your speeding ticket, the court records it as an admission of guilt. This usually leads to points being added to your driving record.
Michigan tracks traffic violations using a points-based system. You get these points based on how far over the limit you were driving when cited. For example, if you were driving one to 10 miles per hour (mph) over the speed limit, you’ll likely get two points. If you’re caught driving 11 to 15 mph over the limit, you’ll get three points. You earn four points if you’re driving 16 or more miles over the limit.
These points carry legal and financial penalties that are tracked by the Secretary of State (SOS) and your insurance company.
As you accumulate points, you’ll get warning letters that you’re approaching the limit for mandatory legal action. Drivers with 12 points have to visit the SOS for a driver assessment re-examination.
The lawyers at Traffic Court Buddy help you avoid the consequences of point accumulation. We use a variety of strategies to challenge your ticket, including questioning the accuracy of the radar or lidar device used by police. We might also cite procedural errors in how your citation was filed.
Depending on your case, we may be able to negotiate your citation down to a non-moving violation or an impeding traffic charge. These zero-point civil infractions don’t show up on your driving record.
Traffic Court Buddy makes it easy to get professional legal help without stepping into a law office. Upload your citation, provide a few details, and our attorney will begin building your defense right away.
At Traffic Court Buddy, we handle tickets for running red lights, stop signs, making improper turns, and other traffic infractions. These seemingly minor citations also affect your permanent driving record.
People who accumulate enough of these infractions will be considered a “high-risk driver” by their insurance company. This typically results in increased monthly insurance premiums.
We work to help keep your driving record clean and avoid costly financial or legal consequences.
Our team offers legal defenses for serious misdemeanors and accidents, such as reckless driving and driving with a suspended license.
Working with our experienced traffic ticket lawyers is important in these situations. The charge of Driving While License Suspended (DWLS) is a criminal offense with costly financial penalties and possible jail time.
Our attorney can potentially clear your tickets to help prevent your license from being suspended. We might also help you avoid jail time and other legal issues.

If you get a traffic ticket, the court imposes a deadline by which you must respond to it. If you fail to meet this timeframe, the court assigns a default judgment, which means you’ve lost your opportunity to fight the ticket. If you don’t submit your payment on time, your license could be suspended.
