Pricing
One flat fee. You see it before you pay a cent.
Your attorney sets one flat legal fee for your charge and court, never hourly, every court appearance included. It’s on the quote you get before you decide. Accept it, or walk away and owe nothing.
Your attorney’s flat legal fee
Set by the attorney for your charge and court. Flat, never hourly, with filings, negotiation and every court appearance included. Shown in the attorney’s introduction before you commit.
Hourly billing, retainers, surprise add-ons
None. The number on the quote is the number you pay.
Your total
One payment, after you accept the quote and sign the engagement agreement. Full refund if we can’t connect you with an attorney.
Court fines and costs, if any remain after the outcome, are paid to the court and are not included. Attorneys set their own legal fees; Ticket Takedown does not share in attorneys’ legal fees. Refunds are not available where prohibited by law.

Pricing questions
Why isn’t there one price for everyone?
Because the attorney sets it, and it depends on the charge and the court: a municipal speeding ticket and a careless-driving charge with two appearances are different amounts of work. What never changes: you see the full amount before you pay anything, and you can say no.
Who do I pay?
Your attorney. The fee on the quote is your attorney’s legal fee; you can pay it through the platform for convenience. Ticket Takedown does not share in attorneys’ legal fees.
What is refundable?
If we cannot connect you with an attorney, everything you paid. Once an attorney begins work, refunds follow your engagement agreement and are reviewed case by case; no refund is due if your case is taken to trial, whatever the outcome. Refunds are not available where prohibited by law. No one can guarantee an outcome.
Can I pay in installments?
Ask. We and your attorney will work with you on a plan.
