Frequently Asked Questions

We do not recommend that option for tickets issued in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties. Specifically, if you elect school, then the ticket will automatically appear on your driving record. In addition, you are only allowed to elect school once a year and 5 times in your lifetime. Therefore, it is best to save the school election for the other counties. In other counties, most attorneys do not guarantee “no points” and one nearby county suspends licenses for those who speed.

Our no-point guarantee applies to all moving violations except speeding 30 over the speed limit; accidents with injuries and criminal cases. If you have no moving violations on your record in the last 3 years and there are no injuries in the accident, then we provide a money-back guarantee of no points.

When you first receive a ticket, then the ticket is pending…the ticket does not appear on your driver’s license until the case is resolved. If the ticket is dismissed then the ticket will not appear on your driver’s license. If it is not dismissed, then it will go on your driver’s license and stay for approximately 10 years. You only get points, if you pay a ticket or the court finds you guilty.

Each suspension is unique. Please call or email us to discuss your specific situation. Please have your license number handy when you call or provide it in your email.

In some situations, we can vacate a plea of no contest or guilty that resulted in the HTO. Please call or email me to discuss as soon as possible because Florida law only allows us to reopen a case in a certain period of time based on the circumstance. If we can vacate the plea then the Court will notify DMV to remove the HTO after the result is updated.

No. That is crazy. In most cases, there are better options than paying a ticket to avoid the pending suspension or to reinstate your driver’s license. Plus, there are serious consequences when you pay a traffic ticket. If you have 3 driving on a suspended license tickets within 5 years, then you can lose your license for 5 years (HTO). Driving on a suspended license without knowledge can get dismissed in court. If you pay it, then you admit guilt and then it counts toward the 3 Driving on a Suspended License Charges within 5 years that result in a HTO. We can’t tell you how many people make this mistake of paying lots of money for tickets and then lose their driver’s license for 5 years.

We strongly recommend against it. You will put yourself in big danger of losing your license for having too many points or getting a HTO with a 5 year license revocation. There is an easier and safer way to reinstate your license. Please call/email us to discuss.

You are not eligible for a hardship for a whole year. You can apply for a hardship ONLY ONCE and ONLY IF YOU HAVE NOT DRIVEN FOR ONE YEAR. If you are found to be driving while your license is revoked, the clock gets reset, and you’ll have to wait a year from the date of the most recent driving offense. However, it is possible that I can reverse the HTO for you. If the HTO is reversed, then you can get a regular driver’s license and will not need a hardship license.
