Syracuse Traffic Lawyer - Driving Suspensions in New York

Existing Driving License Suspensions Terminated Without a Fee

The NYS DMV will terminate all open suspensions for failure to appear issued under NYS VTL Sections 226(3), 227(4) and 510 (4-a), without collection of a suspension termination fee, except for suspensions for failure to appear resulting from violations of VTL 385 or tax law or transportation laws relating to traffic.

Installment Payment Plans for Fines Must be Offered by Courts

Installment payment plans for fines, surcharges and any related fees, including suspension termination fees, imposed for violations of the NYS VTL or other law relating to traffic, must now be offered by the court.

Courts May Waive Any Fine or Surcharge in the Interest of Justice

Courts and hearing officers shall have the discretion, in the interest of justice, to waive any fine and surcharge assessed for violation of the VTL or other laws relating to traffic.

Schuyler speeding ticket

It's been quite a few months, maybe a year since Seth got my speeding ticket reduced to a non moving violation. After speaking with several attorneys I went with Seth because he was exactly as described in his reviews. He was reachable, returned my calls, answered all my questions (which there were many). After a few weeks he and his staff got back to me with a positive outcome. It cost some money in fees and fines but a few months later my insurance had dropped $800. Wow....I was happy I didn't get a speeding ticket or points taken away so that my insurance wouldn't go up. This was a super bonus! 
Thanks Seth!

Made the whole process easy

Seth was great. I had various infractions that required appearance. Payment and process were clearly spelled out and required little attention on my part. He was quick with correspondence and got me the best deals with lowest fines. Will absolutely use him again if ever in need of an attorney.

I want to thank the judge and my lawyer for getting my ticket dismissed. my mentally handicapped son called me and i was worried and answered my phone as many times the police have had to respond to his home. I explained it to a policeman when i was pulled over that i thought it was an emergency and hung up immediately when it wasn't. i received a ticket from the police which i plead not guilty to because i have a clean unblemished driving record and i'm 62. thankfully it was dismissed. i strongly recommend this lawyer firm it real was a mess without them.
