Helping Clients Avoid Points and Higher Insurance Rates
A speeding ticket is more serious than many people realize. If you plead guilty to speeding by paying the fine, points will be added to your driving record, which may increase your insurance rates. If you get enough points, your license could be suspended or revoked for up to a year.
The good news is that with the help of an experienced lawyer, most Illinois speeding tickets can be resolved without a court appearance or any impact on your driving record.
I am Ed Dorsey, a Carbondale speeding ticket attorney serving clients throughout Southern Illinois. If you have gotten a speeding ticket on Interstate 57 (I-57), Interstate 24 (I-24), or any other road or highway, I can take charge of your case and fight to avoid serious penalties.
Cairo and Mound City Construction Zone Ticket Attorney
Construction zone speeding tickets can carry especially serious penalties. In Illinois, the speed limit in a highway work zone is 45 mph. In the buffer zone leading up to a work zone, the speed limit is 55 mph. These limits are enforced even when there are no workers present.
If you have gotten a construction zone ticket, you must appear in court unless you hire an attorney to appear on your behalf. If you are found guilty, you will be fined at least $375. I am often successful at helping clients avoid or reduce penalties for work zone speeding tickets.
