Why Misdemeanor Traffic Lawyers Beat General Criminal Defense Lawyers
A speeding ticket at 96 mph in Arizona isn’t just a slap on the wrist—it’s a criminal misdemeanor under Arizona law. But here’s the catch: general criminal defense attorneys often don’t want these “small” cases, and when they do, they’ll charge you felony-sized fees. At Traffic Law Guys, we’re built for Arizona misdemeanor traffic fights—fair pricing, frequent wins, and the small-court experience other attorneys lack. Here’s why we’re your better bet in Arizona.
General Attorneys Chase Felonies, Not Arizona Traffic Tickets
Most criminal defense attorneys are after big cases—think felonies with high stakes and higher fees. A misdemeanor like criminal speeding in Arizona? It’s not worth their time unless they can overcharge.
They’d Rather Skip the Small Stuff
General attorneys thrive on $10,000 felony cases, not $500 Arizona traffic tickets. When you bring them a criminal speeding charge (A.R.S. § 28-701.02—20+ mph over), they’re often uninterested—it’s not lucrative enough to bother.
Sky-High Fees When They Do Step In
If they take your Arizona case, brace yourself: many charge $4,000 or $5,000 for a misdemeanor, treating it like a felony payday. Why pay that when Traffic Law Guys handles it for a fraction?
Traffic Law Guys Lives for Misdemeanors
We’re not chasing felony glory—we’re all about Arizona misdemeanor traffic cases like yours. That focus keeps us affordable and dialed into the courts that matter.
Fair Pricing, Not Felony Rates
At Traffic Law Guys, we charge what a misdemeanor deserves—fair, not inflated. You won’t see $5,000 bills here; we’re built for drivers who need results without the gouge. Call for a free consult and compare.
We Know Limited Jurisdiction Courts Inside Out
Misdemeanors like speeding tickets land in limited jurisdiction courts in Arizona (think Scottsdale City Court or Phoenix Municipal Court), not the felony-level Superior Courts general attorneys haunt. We’ve logged countless hours there—familiar faces, familiar rules—while felony lawyers might step in blind.
Experience Where It Counts Most in Arizona
General attorneys might dazzle in a felony trial, but Arizona traffic tickets are a different beast. Our daily grind gives us the edge you need.
We Handle Traffic Cases All the Time
Criminal speeding, reckless driving, DUIs—we’ve fought hundreds of these in Arizona. That repetition means we’ve seen it all, from radar slip-ups to prosecutor quirks, unlike generalists who dip in once a year.
Real Results Prove It

Trial in a Misdemeanor Traffic Case
Most criminal traffic cases do not go to trial and here’s why. By the time a case is ready for trial, all discovery and disclosure has been completed. This means both parties have all of the information available and know the relative strengths and weaknesses of their cases. This also means that all negotiations have concluded.
East Mesa Justice Court
East Mesa Justice Court is a court of limited jurisdiction, meaning it handles civil cases involving less than $10,000, civil and criminal traffic violations, and misdemeanors. If you receive a ticket from the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office or Arizona Department of Public Safety inside the Court’s precinct, your case will be handled here.
