Traffic Ticket Reduced for Nurse in Pittsburgh

When a nurse from Pittsburgh was stopped by police and ticketed for traveling 19 miles per hour over the posted residential speed limit on her way to work, she turned to the capable Pennsylvania traffic lawyers at Worgul, Sarna & Ness, Criminal Defense Attorneys, LLC for their assistance. After discussing her available legal options and possible repercussions, which included the addition of three points on her license, and a likely increase in her insurance rates, she decided to fight the ticket.

Traffic attorney Matthew Ness represented the woman and began negotiating with the assigned prosecutor. Through his ability to advocate on his client’s behalf, these negations concluded with the prosecution agreeing to adjust the original ticket to a violation for traveling 5 miles per hour over the limit. This reduced traffic ticket would not result in any points being added to her driving record and the client was relieved to find such a favorable outcome, rather than experience a costly hike in her insurance premiums.

The outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any similar or future case.
