We hired the Traffic Law Guys after my son received a criminal speeding ticket while driving home from college—unfortunately, in a town known for being particularly tough on speeding. From the very beginning, the entire team was outstanding: responsive, honest, and transparent about the process and potential outcomes. David handled the court hearing personally and was excellent—professional, prepared, and persuasive. As a fellow attorney, I was genuinely impressed by the quality of representation and level of care they provided. I would not hesitate to recommend Traffic Law Guys to anyone facing a traffic offense.

What peace of mind Traffic Law Guys provided when I had a run-in with another driver. A call from the police telling me I was to be charged with aggressive driving--which carries possible jail time--had me pretty shook up. I scanned the web for a realistic expectation of what could happen if they followed through. Traffic Law Guys had the only website that seemed interested in spelling things out for me; all the others just wanted to scare me into contracting their services.

The follow-through did not disappoint. Within a couple of hours--on a weekend--I had a call and an email that already put me more at ease. They answer the phone when you call, too, and are happy to help. Chris, the attorney I spoke to, made a point of calling me back on a Sunday, and never acted like it was a bother or that he had better things to do.

I may or may not need legal help with this matter; time will tell. But if I do, I will absolutely call Traffic Law Guys. The rates are reasonable and the customer service is exactly what you'd hope for, especially when you're shook up and scared.

Working with the team was great. They explained everything to me in a way I could understand, not to mention they had my criminal speeding ticket 25+ mph over dropped down to defensive driving class only with 0 points and no criminal record.

I'm blown away by the exceptional service I received from Traffic Law Guys in Scottsdale, AZ! David, the lawyer I worked with, was kind, courteous, and incredibly informative. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I understood the process.

What impressed me most was their honesty and integrity. When my case was reduced to taking an online traffic course just after getting started, they could have easily kept my money and done the bare minimum. Instead, they refunded me and continued to guide me through the process until I received my certificate.

David, Chris, Olga, and the team at Traffic Law Guys truly went above and beyond. Their transparency, expertise, and kindness made a stressful situation much more manageable. I highly recommend them to anyone facing traffic-related issues. Five stars isn't enough – they deserve ten!

Hands on one of the Best Law firm to be represented by. I recieved criminal traffic violation in 2021, i contacted many Law firms but they were charging me ridiculous prices. Traffic law guys were transparent in every step of the way in my legal process, they kept me updated and got my sentence reduced to a minor traffic violation. I highly appreciate their effort, and since i have recommended many of my family, friends and colleagues to them.

I truly appreciate the respectful, timely, thorough, helpful, and transparent services the entire staff at this law firm exhibits. Not that anyone, including myself, ever wants to have to deal with a legal and/or traffic-related matter, but I highly recommend this law firm if ever you might need them as they will do whatever they can to help. Highly satisfied! Thank you.
Jourdan N.
David was so honest, patient, and knowledgeable. He left no question unanswered during our free consult. He advised me that in my situation I likely wouldn’t need him, and gave me a ton of other great advice as to my options. I will definitely be recommending him to all my friends and family in need!

What Is Criminal Speeding In Phoenix?

Criminal speeding, also known as excessive speed, is a serious traffic offense in Arizona. A driver can be charged with criminal speeding for:

  • Driving over 85 mph anywhere in the city.
  • Exceeding 35 mph in a school zone.
  • Driving more than 20 mph over the posted speed limit in a business or residential area.

The laws in Phoenix are strict, and a criminal speeding charge is classified as a class 3 misdemeanor criminal charge. This means it carries more severe consequences than a regular civil speeding ticket.

Common Concerns For Phoenix Drivers Facing Criminal Speeding Charges

Many drivers facing criminal speeding charges in Phoenix share similar concerns including:

  • Will I lose my license? Depending on your driving history, a conviction could lead to license suspension if you accumulate too many points.
  • Will this go on my criminal record? Yes, a criminal speeding conviction results in a criminal record.
  • Will I have to appear in court? Yes, criminal speeding charges require a mandatory court appearance. However, an attorney can appear for you in some instances.
  • What are the potential penalties? Penalties can include fines, points on your driving record, increased insurance premiums, driving school, and possible jail time or probation.

Consequences Of A Criminal Speeding Ticket In Phoenix

If convicted of criminal speeding in Phoenix, you face several potential penalties:

  • Fines: A conviction could result in hefty fines, often in the range of $500 or more.
  • Points on Your License: A criminal speeding conviction adds 3 points to your license in Arizona. Accumulating too many points in a short period can result in a license suspension.
  • Increased Insurance Rates: Your insurance premiums may significantly increase due to a criminal speeding conviction.
  • Possible Jail Time: While jail time is not mandatory, in some cases, judges may impose a short jail sentence, especially if the alleged speed was over 100 mph, more than double the posted speed limit, or if you have prior offenses.
  • Criminal Record: A class 3 misdemeanor will appear on your criminal record. This is something you will have to disclose when applying for jobs. It will also come up if you have an immigration status.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a lawyer for a criminal speeding ticket?

Plenty of drivers represent themselves in their criminal speeding cases. Many of those people end up pleading guilty to the criminal charge and moving on. If you want to do everything you can to avoid having a criminal record, it is probably a good idea to have a lawyer help you.

An experienced defense attorney will know what to look for that might make the difference between a conviction and a reduced charge. Do you want to interview the p0lice officer who gave you the ticket? That is something a defense attorney does every day.

In our experience, prosecuting attorneys are frequently more willing to work with a defense attorney than a self represented litigant. This may not be fair, but it is a reality. A defense attorney probably already has some professional relationship with the prosecutor. Often the communication between a defendant and a prosecuting attorney can be tense or defensive. If the prosecutor feels defensive or on-guard, it can make a positive resolution difficult.

Can I get my ticket dismissed?

Maybe. This is always the outcome we are going for. There are a few ways a ticket might get dismissed:

1. Defensive driving school.

2. Maybe the ticket was filed in the wrong court, so the court lacks jurisdiction.

3. Maybe something happens to the officer who issued the ticket, and he is unavailable to testify.

4. Maybe there is some irregularity that comes up during the case. For example, maybe the officer wasn’t certified to operate the radar device.

5. Maybe the prosecution fails to make mandatory disclosures of information.

Can a conviction for criminal speeding be expunged from my record?

No. Arizona does not have expungement for criminal speeding convictions.

It is possible to have the conviction set aside. This means the court sets aside the conviction and dismisses the charge, but this does not remove it from your record.

It is also possible to seal criminal records, which goes a lot further towards removing a criminal conviction from your record.

There isn’t anything to be done about driving records though. Once a violation hits your driving record, it stays there.
