Fight your New York traffic ticket.
Speeding, red light, cell phone, suspended license. Upload your ticket, get a flat fee quote, and let a licensed New York attorney handle the rest.
Paying the fine is pleading guilty.
Most people pay the ticket because it is the fastest way to make it go away. It is not. The fine is the smallest part of what a conviction costs you.
A moving violation conviction in New York puts points on your license, and those points follow you. Your insurer sees the conviction at your next renewal and prices you accordingly, every month, for years. Eleven points in twenty four months and the DMV can suspend your licence. Six or more points in eighteen months and you owe the Driver Responsibility Assessment on top of everything else.
And once you have paid, it is over. There is no undoing a guilty plea when the premium increase shows up six months later.
If you just pay it
If you fight it
Estimated using an average premium increase of $39 per month following a moving violation conviction. Your actual increase depends on your insurer, your record and the violation.
You do not have to fight it with us. But contest it with someone before you pay, because after you pay there is nothing anyone can do.
A New York City ticket is a different animal.
Tickets written inside the five boroughs do not go to a regular court. They go to the DMV Traffic Violations Bureau, and the TVB runs on its own rules. No plea bargaining. No reduction to a non moving violation.
That is why the national ticket apps exclude New York City from their money back guarantees. Their own terms say it plainly: the guarantee does not apply in the five boroughs.
We work the TVB. It is not the exception to what we do, it is most of what we do.
No plea bargaining, so preparation is everything
At TVB the case is won on the evidence and the cross examination, not on a deal in the hallway. The file has to be built properly before the hearing date.
The officer has to show up
If the issuing officer does not appear, that changes the posture of the case entirely. Knowing how each borough handles adjournments is the job.
Points are the real stake
TVB fines are not the problem. The points, the Driver Responsibility Assessment and the insurance consequence are. That is what we are actually fighting.
You send us the ticket. That is your entire job.
Send us the ticket
Take a photo of it with your phone and upload it, or text it to us. If you have already lost the ticket, we can usually find the matter with your license number and the date.
We review it and quote you
You get a flat fee, in writing, before you commit to anything. If we do not think fighting it is worth your money, we will tell you that.
A licensed attorney takes it from there
A New York licensed attorney is assigned to your matter and handles the appearance, the adjournments and the negotiation. You do not go to court.
You get told what happened
Court dates, adjournments and the outcome, by text and email as they happen. Not a portal you have to remember to check.
No mailing in your ticket. No showing up in court. No taking a day off work.
If it puts points on your license, we will look at it.
Speeding
VTL 1180
The most common ticket in New York and the one with the widest point range.
Red light and stop sign
VTL 1111, 1172
Frequently written on an officer's judgment call about the line and the light.
Cell phone and texting
VTL 1225-c, 1225-d
Five points for a first offense, and New York enforces it aggressively.
Failure to yield
VTL 1140 to 1145
Often charged after a minor collision, where the report and the diagram matter.
Improper lane change
VTL 1128
Usually a judgment call about signalling distance and the safety of the move.
Reckless driving
VTL 1212
A misdemeanor, not a violation. This one carries a criminal record. Do not pay this one.
Suspended licence
VTL 511
Aggravated unlicensed operation is a criminal charge, and it is now worth 11 points on its own.
CDL and commercial
Various
A conviction here is your livelihood, and CDL holders cannot take the usual plea.
Not listed? Send it anyway. If it is a New York moving violation we will tell you honestly whether it is worth fighting.

I was ready to just pay it. They looked at the ticket, told me exactly what the points would do to my premium, and then handled the whole thing. I never went to court.
Straight answer on day one about what was realistic. No promises, no sales pitch. That is why I hired them.
Told me my camera ticket carried no points and that I did not need them. I came back three months later with a real one.
We do not guarantee outcomes, and you should be careful with anyone who does. No lawyer can promise a judge's decision. What we promise is that we will treat your ticket the way we would treat our own, tell you honestly what we think it is worth, and make sure you are not worse off for having asked us.
The national services are software. We are the people who show up.
We do not exclude New York City
The national platforms carve the five boroughs out of their guarantees because TVB is harder. It is our core market.
One flat fee, quoted before you commit
You see the number in writing first. No hourly billing, no surprise disbursements.
