Frequently asked questions
Should I just take Florida's traffic school election instead of hiring a lawyer?
Electing the Basic Driver Improvement course avoids points, but you can only use it once every 12 months and five times in a lifetime — and it still costs you the fine plus course fees. An attorney fights for a dismissal or a withhold of adjudication, which can preserve your election for when you really need it.
What is a 'withhold of adjudication' on a Florida ticket?
The judge or hearing officer finds the infraction proven but withholds formal conviction, so no points are assessed. It's one of the standard outcomes attorneys in our network pursue on Florida speeding cases.
Do I have to show up to county court for a speeding ticket?
Almost never for a civil infraction — a licensed Florida attorney can appear for you. We connect you with a Florida attorney who handles the hearing while you keep working.
How fast do I have to be going for it to get serious in Florida?
At 30 mph or more over the limit a court appearance is mandatory and fines climb steeply; 50 mph over brings enhanced penalties. Those cases especially warrant counsel rather than a mail-in plea.
How long does a speeding conviction stay visible in Florida?
The conviction sits on your FLHSMV driving record for years and insurers typically surcharge for three to five. The points age off faster than the record entry does.
