Have you been issued a traffic ticket or Class C Misdemeanor in San Antonio? It pays to fight it!

Traffic tickets and misdemeanors can cost you much more than you think. If you pay your traffic ticket or misdemeanor fines directly to the court, a conviction will appear on your driving or criminal record.

This can result in penalties on your driving record and higher insurance premiums that could cost you thousands of dollars. If you are charged with a misdemeanor, future employment, educational, and even housing opportunities may be in jeopardy. Our experience can help you avoid court and keep your record clean.

For just the cost of your ticket fine, we will appear in court for you and fight to protect your record. In most cases, we can keep the ticket from appearing as a conviction on your record.

Sometimes we can do it for less.
Don’t miss school or work to spend hours at the courthouse.
Avoid penalties to your driving record.
Keep your insurance premiums from rising.
We fight your traffic ticket or misdemeanor for you, and you will NOT have to appear in court.
