Anyone know good lawyers in the Spokane area?
Just like the title says. I got a ticket coming back from Montana with Ryon and I am thinking about fighting it. It was for 10 over in a 70. Was going with the flow of traffic and was just in the wrong place, in the wrong (color) car at the wrong time. :lol: LMK Thanks. {thumbup}

I have used Andrew Phipps (Seattle) to represent me in Ritzville. I would imagine that he would cover out to Spokane too since it is under 60 miles up the road from Ritzville. His # is 425 688 0787 if interested.

Thanks, how much was he btw? {thumbup}
|
I think it was $300 for out of the area, but it could have been more. That was about 4 years ago, btw. Best of luck!

im sure it was the color red that drew all the attention to you.... not the 100's of stickers and the 3.5 inch exhaust :lol:
I'm just glad i wasn't in the car this time, i would really start feeling like i am bad luck for you. |
Dang dude! that sucks. Should of drove your car. Def. pay for the lawyer to keep it off of your record.
Good luck man:beer: |
You should just attend court yourself. Judge will even let you go if he feels like it, there is no need for lawyer.

Can you do traffic school? $30-40 for the class online (really only takes 20 minutes, not 4 hours) and you pay 80% of the ticket.. Easy out and doesnt take months for a verdict....
I've done this twice now and its cost me less than hiring a lawyer... Cheers! |

Not in WA. However, you could get the ticket deferred in WA (once every 7 years). Just don't get another ticket (convicted) in a year or both go on your record.
I guess if you hate laws move to florida... {thumbup} |
Damn! There must be high-supply for of lawyers or low demand of tickets! ;)
I prefer a state where the crotchety old farts that shouldn't be driving (but are) have to be insured. :lol: (assuming insurance is still optional down there?) |

I have about 25 tickets on my record in spokane, from 16-24 years old. hehe Send the ticket in, Contested. You will get a court date, SHOW UP, and the judge will ask you 3 questions. *Do you want to plead guilty, and mitigate (reduce fine amount) *Contest the offense (you NEVER win) *Speak to the City procescutor (YES YES YOU DO) What will happen is that you will pay a fine, but you tell them "I dont mind paying a fee I wish to have it changed to a NON moving violation" They say, "Well based on your record we can do that. hows expired tabs sound?" Sounds good to me! :) $101 Fine. This was just two weeks ago for a 95 in a 60 ;) |

| | So to add, you save 300$ in lawyers fee, calls, and just alot of hassel. it is really easier than you are worried about. They probably thought you where me haha!!! between Pines exit through division? |
k20, it would also depend on if it was a state trooper or a city or county... cause then it depends on what judge you get and what they do. I too had a 95 in a 60 just north of Spokane, and they ammended it to a "no license on person" because it was late at night with no traffic out in the middle of nowhere.
I would also go this route, because worst case they will defer it and let and you just have to behave for a year. Not worth the cost of a lawyer plus travelling out there. And most often if they have a solid case, the lawyer will get you the same deal you could've gotten for yourself. IMHO |
