Griffin Speeding Ticket Lawyer

Don't Let Georgia Traffic Tickets Follow You Home

If you received a speeding ticket on I-75 or anywhere in Georgia, take it seriously and take an attorney with you to court. I have so often seen people who were nonchalant about a ticket end up with their driver's license suspended because they went to court without legal advocacy.

I am Georgia criminal defense lawyer Josh W. Thacker. I handled traffic cases and felony prosecutions as a former Assistant District Attorney for six years, and now I defend people accused of everything from speeding to major traffic offenses.

Protect Your Driver's License
Speeding tickets can result in suspension under Georgia's point system. They also count in your home state if you are not a Georgia resident. Under-21 drivers and CDL drivers must take any ticket very seriously. Contact me now for a free consultation.

Monroe County Speeding Ticket Defense Attorney

Based in Griffin, Georgia, I regularly represent people who are pulled over for speeding offenses and other traffic and license offenses in the counties of Metro South Atlanta and Central Georgia that flank Interstate I-75. Many clients are truck drivers and other out-of-state drivers who often do not realize the jeopardy of pleading guilty to a speeding violation and paying the fine.

If you were clocked at 14 mph over the limit or less, you may or may not be safe depending on the county. It should not count as points against your Georgia license or appear on your record in your home state. Contact an attorney to be sure!

For exceeding the speed limit by 15 mph or more, you definitely need an attorney to get it reduced. Georgia has a graduated point system for speeding tickets:

15 to 18 mph over = 2 points
19 to 23 mph over = 3 points
24 to 33 mph over = 4 points
34 mph or more above the limit = 6 points

Drivers under age 21 can lose their license for a 4-point offense (such as 80 mph on a 55 mph highway), or any combination of 4 points in 12 months.

In most cases I can represent drivers from out of state, including CDL drivers, via phone, e-mail and fax so that they do not have to return to Georgia to appear in court. If you are a Georgia resident, I can represent in municipal court, in license suspension hearings and in the license reinstatement process.

As a former prosecutor myself, I know the ropes of negotiating with prosecutors to reduce speeding tickets, either to a lower speed offense or a no-point citation. I will pull your driving record to understand the ramifications for your Georgia license, CDL license or driving privileges in your home state.
