Practice Area
Traffic citations are more than a fine.
Points, surcharges, license suspensions, and CDL disqualifications can follow a 'simple' ticket. We appear in magisterial district courts across Central PA to fight them.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Common questions about Pennsylvania traffic citations, points, and CDL impacts.
Usually no. Paying a citation is the same as pleading guilty — points hit your record, your insurance rates can rise for years, and certain violations trigger PennDOT license suspensions or CDL disqualifications. Many tickets can be reduced to non-point violations through negotiation or beaten on the merits at a summary trial.
