The Ticket Clinic, Miami-Dade County Traffic Attorneys

Being cited for a traffic offense in Miami may be more complicated than you think. Paying the fine isn’t your only concern. The Florida DMV will place points on your record for most traffic infractions. If you already have a critical number of points, you could have your license suspended or revoked, depending on the circumstances. The traffic ticket lawyers at The Ticket Clinic in Miami are here to help you try to lessen, or, in some cases, avoid the consequences by getting the traffic citation dismissed. Whatever your circumstances may be, whether you have a spotless driving record, or have an accumulation of points piled up, you need to do what is in your best interest going forward. If you have a clean record, you want to keep it that way, if possible. On the other hand, if you already have points on your record, one ticket could lead to loss of your license, or much higher insurance rates, among other negative consequences. Let the traffic violation attorneys at The Ticket Clinic in Miami show you how to best protect your driving record and reduce the negative effects on your future.

What are the most common traffic tickets issued in Miami‑Dade?
  • Speeding (including in zones like school or construction)
  • Running red lights / stop signs
  • Illegal turns or failing to yield
  • Driving with expired or noregistration, or no insurance
  • Driving while license suspended or revoked
  • Careless or reckless driving
  • DUI / driving under influence (though this is more serious)

 

These are the tickets most often issued, and many of them carry points or insurance consequences beyond just paying a fine.

1. Safely pull over.
2. Remain calm and polite.
3. Provide your license, registration, proof of insurance when asked.
4. Don’t argue with the officer on the side of the road (you’ll get your chance in court
5. If asked, you may politely decline to answer incriminating questions (you do have rights).
6. Document what you can discreetly: time, location, traffic conditions, other vehicles, officer badge number, etc.

Doing those things preserves your composure and your ability to defend later.

Non‑criminal traffic infractions: Minor offenses (speeding, running a red light, no insurance, etc.). Usually handled in civil/traffic court. Penalties include fines, points, and possibly driving school.

Criminal traffic charges: More serious. Could include DUI, vehicular manslaughter, reckless driving causing injury, hit-and-run, driving on a suspended license in certain cases. These carry potential jail time, criminal record, and far greater stakes.

Knowing which category your citation falls into guides strategy: criminal charges often demand more vigorous defense, earlier action, and possibly criminal defense expertise.

 

Ignoring it is one of the worst moves. Consequences include:

Additional penalties, late fees
Automatic license suspension
Warrant for arrest in some criminal traffic cases
The case may proceed without you (default judgment)
Insurance ramifications

You don’t get “out” of it by ignoring it — you worsen it.

1. Contest it / fight it in court (or via attorney)
2. Elect traffic school or a diversion (if eligible)
3. Pay it (admit guilt) — often the default but the riskiest

Generally, your best option is ALWAYS to fight it.

  1. Paying is an admission of guilt.
  2. You accept the points and record consequences.
  3. Insurance rates can spike.
  4. You lose your right to contest.
  5. You might be better off investing in legal defense, which can reduce or eliminate those damages.

 

Often, the cost of hiring representation is far less than the downstream financial harm of points and higher premiums.

1. File a notice of contest / request for hearing (within the deadline)
2. Gather evidence (photos, witness statements, dashcam, etc.)
3. Possibly attend a pretrial / mitigation hearing
4. Present your case in traffic court before a judge or hearing officer
5. Cross-examine the officer or challenge evidence
6. Judge renders decision: dismiss, reduce, or affirm

Lawyers know procedural rules, deadlines, and how to challenge evidence.
They’ve seen many officers testify and know cross‑examination tactics.
They may negotiate plea deals or reductions you wouldn’t know to ask for.
They reduce your risk of points, license suspension, insurance hikes.
You save time, stress, and avoid courtroom mistakes.
In a system stacked toward officers and prosecutors, a lawyer levels the playing field.
