Joseph Eustace has been practicing law in Mercer County for more than twenty years, devoting his practice primarily to traffic law. Because of his ability, backed up by concrete results, more than half of the people he represents come through referrals, either from satisfied clients or from other attorneys who respect his work and are confident in his ability. When it comes to violations of the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Code, Joseph Eustace can help you.

There are two primary reasons for seeking legal representation if you have been charged with a traffic violation. The first is that the attorney can help you avoid points; the second, which is related, is that the attorney can help you avoid costly insurance increases. This is done by either fighting the charges, or negotiating with the prosecutor and police officer to get the charges reduced.

Even if you are guilty of violating the law, a traffic lawyer can be a valuable asset. For example, a speeding ticket in New Jersey can result in up to 5 points on your license. An attorney can help work out a deal with the court to pay a larger fine in exchange for a reduced number of points. The long-term benefits of this are considerable, as your license is protected, and your insurance company will not be able to increase your premiums, or will only be able to do so slightly.
