Traffic Violations

Resolving Traffic Violations and License Suspensions

For dependable advice about your best approach for taking care of traffic tickets and avoiding the risk of or dealing with a driver's license suspension, contact the Boston law firm of Steven J. Topazio, Attorney at Law.

Our experience and understanding of the different ways of resolving traffic violations can help you maintain your driver's license, keep your insurance rates down, and for commercial drivers, even protect your livelihood. For example, we help drivers with speeding tickets and other citations take care of traffic violations at the earliest possible stage: the appeal of a ticket at a clerk's hearing. A favorable resolution at the next appeal stage, the district court level, is generally more difficult to achieve because the arresting officer will probably appear to explain the details of the violation before a judge.

Will your next speeding ticket result in suspension of your driver's license?

Like many other states, Massachusetts has a points system that requires suspension or revocation of your license depending on the number and severity of traffic violations you accumulate over a given period of time. For example, three speeding tickets in a single year will result in a 30-day suspension. Twelve speeding tickets in a 5-year period will mark you as a traditional traffic offender, and result in a 4-year license revocation. Our ability to take care of traffic violations for many drivers can help you avoid the problems that a series of tickets can cause for you over time.

Traffic violation clients at our law firm include local drivers throughout the Greater Boston area, commercial drivers based in Massachusetts or traveling through the state, underage or juvenile drivers, college students, and private motorists from other states who get tagged for moving violations on I-95, Route 1, or the Mass Pike.
