Attorney Paulette Benz has an extensive knowledge of the Perquimans County Court’s policies and procedures. She would seek to utilize her versatile legal skills on your behalf in negotiating the best available reduction of your citation. Attorney Benz’s primary goal with most traffic tickets is to prevent an impact on either your insurance premiums or your driver’s license through working to reduce or even dismiss citations.

Why Should You Hire an Attorney for Your Perquimans County Traffic Citation?

If you choose to hire Attorney Benz, she will be able to appear in court on your behalf, saving you time and stress from having to take off work, hire a babysitter, or travel several hours to the Perquimans County Court. Do not pay any speeding or traffic ticket without first consulting a traffic attorney. If you decide to pay off their own ticket, without representation by attorney to help navigate traffic court, you will be admitting guilt to the citation charged by the officer. Additionally, traffic tickets that may seem simple could actually have severe impacts on your insurance premiums and driving privileges. For instance, admitting to speeding just 10mph over the limit in a 55mph zone could result in 3 points on your license and an increase in your insurance premiums of 45% for three years. For just 99$ for the average speeding ticket the attorneys at iTicket.law can relieve you of the stress and burdens of handling a traffic citation.

Common Questions about Perquimans County Traffic Tickets

 

By simply paying off a traffic ticket to the Perquimans County Clerk of court, you are in effect pleading guilty to the charge on your citation, and accepting any consequences that come with that. Even one traffic citation can have a significant impact on your life. Traffic citations can have a snowball effect on your driving record, potentially causing your insurance premiums to increase drastically. Additionally, depending on the speed zone a conviction of speeding over 15mph over the limit can result in a suspension of your North Carolina Driver’s License. Therefore it is recommended that you consult with a seasoned attorney who specializes in traffic matters for every traffic citation.

It is possible that, depending on your state’s laws and DMV guidelines, you may be subject to increased insurance premiums and license points. A number of states (North Carolina included) have traffic laws that can cause an out of state speeding ticket to affect your license and insurance. Attorney Benz advises speaking with an attorney from your state or the DMV for information about how a ticket can affect you as not all states recognize the consequences imposed by another.

Handling a ticket by yourself in court can feel like a never ending process. It can sometimes take several hours of waiting in line each court appearance just to speak with an Assistant District Attorney. Traffic citations can often require multiple court appearances in order to achieve the best possible result. Hiring an attorney can save you a number of days of missed work, school, or your other family obligations. Jokingly, we like to think of ourselves as being similar to plumbers. If you have a leaking pipe at your house and are highly experienced in handling such matters, you don't need to hire a plumber. However, if you aren't sure how to handle it, but try to fix it, you could accidentally flood your house. Same concept. If you're not very comfortable with North Carolina Department of Motor Vehicle and Department of Insurance Laws, getting what you think is a "good" outcome could possibly skyrocket your insurance premiums. Traffic Attorney Paulette Benz wants to give you the peace of mind of knowing that a seasoned professional is handling your case.*

Keep in mind that every traffic case is different and the research and actions that lead to reductions can also vary, although the following are some common reductions and the estimated court costs and fees associated with them. An Improper Equipment comes with Court Costs and Fines of $266-$286. A reduction in the speeding to 5/9mph over comes with Court Costs and Fines of $216. A Prayer for Judgment Continued reduction comes with court Costs and Fines of $193. A reduction in the speeding to 14mph over comes with Court Costs and Fines of $238.

In Perquimans County, the Clerk of Court needs to have your payment in full within twenty (20) days following the closing of your case. Failure to do so could result in added fines against you. In many instances you may be able to pay your court costs online after your case has been handled.

In specific cases, attending certain drivers education classes can make you eligible for greater levels of reduction. We recommend waiting for an attorney to review the circumstances of your citation before you decide to pay for a course. Feel free to contact our office at (919) 200-0822 to determine whether or not a driving school might be beneficial to you.

The current elected District Attorney of Perquimans is Andrew Womble
