i got into a accident this past week. i got a failure to reduce speed ticket. will i need a lawyer? the person whom i hit wont be there. i guess i should give a lil background to the accident. i was on golf near woodfield mall just east of the highway. there was some stop and go traffic. the car about 4-5 car lengths ahead of me had stalled.. later i found out. so people were trying to scramble to the right lane. i didnt see anything so i thought it was just congestion. s the person in front of me did a fast start and braked hard.. luckily i had stopped in time the first time. then she did it a again and the following time i didnt stop in time and nailed her. so yeah she wont be at court. how much do lawyers charge for something like this? thanks

How is your driving record? If its good you shouldnt have a problem getting probation. Ive had a ton of speeding/drag racing/seat belt/following to close/ tickets and I got probation on all of them. The drag racing is the only ones that i got a lawyer for and it cost zero becuase my uncles took care of it. But it would of cost 350 just for showing up.
If your record is bad than get a lawyer.

no my record is pretty clean one ticket since i started driving.. that was back in 2000-2001 for a no left turn. i started driving back in 96.. yeah been talking to some friends and they say just go in and plead guilty. ask for probation due to my pretty clean record.

yes its just for the moving violation. i havent seen any thing yet from her side saying shes gonna sue. i doubt it. she is from a different state. she wont be showing up for my ticket because i believe she will be in new orleans. i currently have esurance. they have been good so far.

^ Some people love to fake injury, the old my neck or back type thing especially since this was a rear-end accident. Just make sure you keep track of any court dates that you might get if she does sue for medical bills/lost wages, etc.
