Fight Your Traffic Ticket
with a Licensed Attorney
Don't pay until you've explored your options. A single ticket can raise your insurance premiums by $1,800–$3,000 over three years. Our attorneys fight every violation type — flat fee, no court appearances required in most cases.
Choose Your Violation Type
Every violation type has specific defenses. Select yours for tailored information.
Speeding Tickets
The most common traffic violation. A single speeding conviction can raise your insurance premiums by 15–30% for 3–5 years. Most cases are dismissible.
Reckless Driving
A criminal charge in most states — not just a traffic infraction. Potential jail time, license suspension, and permanent record. Always requires an attorney.
CDL Violations
Commercial driver's license holders face disqualification for violations that are minor for regular drivers. Your livelihood depends on your CDL — protect it.
Red Light Camera Tickets
Photo enforcement tickets are highly contestable on procedural, technical, and constitutional grounds. Many jurisdictions have specific defenses that work consistently.
School Zone Violations
Fines are typically doubled or tripled in school zones, and some states treat them as serious violations requiring court appearance. Attorney representation is often worth it.
Construction Zone Speeding
Enhanced penalties apply in active work zones in every state. Many states double fines regardless of whether workers are present. Multiple violations can trigger suspension.
HOV Lane Violations
High-occupancy vehicle lane violations carry significant fines and are often issued by automated systems. Procedural and technical defenses are common and effective.
Cell Phone / Distracted Driving
Handheld cell phone violations are increasingly severe — multiple states now add 3–4 insurance points. Secondary evidence issues make many tickets contestable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of traffic tickets can BeatMyTicket defend?
BeatMyTicket handles all traffic violation types including speeding, reckless driving, red light camera violations, CDL violations, school zone tickets, construction zone speeding, HOV violations, cell phone tickets, failure to yield, stop sign violations, and more.
Do I need an attorney for every traffic ticket?
Not always — minor infractions with low points and fines may not warrant attorney fees. However, any ticket that adds 2+ points, triggers insurance increases, or involves a criminal charge (like reckless driving) is worth fighting with legal representation. The insurance savings alone often exceed the attorney fee.
How much does it cost to fight a traffic ticket?
BeatMyTicket charges a flat fee that varies by violation type and state — typically $149–$499. The fee is shown before you commit. For most drivers, this is offset by the insurance savings from avoiding a conviction.
