AS LOW AS $750 FOR ST LOUIS FELONY CHARGES

If you have been criminally charged with anything at all, then you absolutely should be taking it seriously. But generally speaking, a St Louis felony charge is quite a bit more worrisome than a misdemeanor.

The state of Missouri separates its criminal charges by categorizing them as either a felony or a misdemeanor. A St Louis misdemeanor can be thought of as a lower-level infraction (such as trespassing, shoplifting low value items, possession of low amounts of marijuana, etc.). Felony charges are reserved for those crimes the state determines to be much more significant (and/or pose a greater threat to society). Some common examples of St Louis felonies would be 1st Degree Murder, 1st Degree Arson, etc.).

ONLY $35 FOR MOST ST LOUIS TRAFFIC TICKETS

It is not unusual for a police officer to issue several tickets on one stop. The officer may have pulled you over initially for speeding. But other tickets could be written as well (for example, you are not able to show proof of valid car insurance, or your seatbelt was not secured). Even though multiple tickets are issued, we can still help you out!!

To begin with, if you were to simply sign the back of the ticket and pay the fine, that is the same thing as pleading guilty to the charge. When this happens, the state of Missouri will assess points to your permanent driving record. “Points” are like little red flags that make it look as if you are a bad driver. This in turn will cause your automobile insurance provider to jack up your monthly rates.

ONLY $375 FOR MOST ST LOUIS MISDEMEANORS

Getting charged with a misdemeanor in St Louis is big deal. But for whatever reason, a lot of people don’t seem to think that such a charge will have much of an effect on them. They tend to believe that it’s “no big deal”. But the exact opposite is true.

In the state of Missouri, misdemeanor crimes are categorized into classification: Class A (reserved for the most serious misdemeanors); Class B; and Class C. Examples of a Class A Misdemeanor would be possession of marijuana (less than 35 grams). Such a charge comes with up to one (1) year in jail and a $1,000 fine. So yes, it is a very big deal.

ONLY $375 FOR MOST MISDEMEANORS IN ST LOUIS

If the prosecutor is willing to reduce (or amend) a criminal charge, it is because he/she recognizes that doing so is way more efficient than allowing the case to go to trial. Prosecutors are usually pretty overwhelmed with cases. Which means if they can negotiate a deal with a St Louis criminal defense lawyer, then that is going to make their job that much easier.

This process is called a “plea bargain”. A plea bargain is basically a deal that is worked out between the state and the defendant to reduce the charge to some lesser offense. So for example, let’s say you have been charged with 1st Degree trespassing in St Louis. This is a Class B Misdemeanor (which can come with up to six (6) months of jail time, and a $500 fine). But if you hire an experienced attorney, he or she can work closely with the prosecutor to get the charge lowered to some minor infraction (like “littering,” that does not even show up on your record).

ONLY $150 FOR ARREST WARRANTS

If you have active arrest warrants (whether it is one, or many), then it is best that you get them taken care of immediately. Why? Because if you are pulled over with active warrants (or if for some reason a cop runs a background check on you), then chances are you will be cuffed on the spot (and transported to the municipal jail from which the warrant originated). But instead of dealing with that, there is a much better way of handling it!!

MOST ST LOUIS DRIVING WHILE SUSPENDED TICKETS CAN BE HANDLED FOR $185

Traffic tickets for driving while suspended in St Louis is a big deal. In fact, most jurisdictions within the state of Missouri regard such an infraction as a misdemeanor. And if you do not get it taken care of as quickly as possible, then you will be facing some fairly severe repercussions in the immediate future.

The infraction of Driving While Suspended in St. Louis simply means that you were caught driving during a time when you driving privileges had been either revoked or suspended (because of an active warrant for you arrest, or because you’ve received too many points over a short period of time, or because of a DUI that you got within the last year).

ONLY $35 TO HANDLE MOST ST LOUIS SPEEDING TICKETS

If you plead guilty to a St Louis speeding ticket, then your automobile insurance will raise quite a bit. Why? Because the insurance company will use the ticket as an excuse to label you as a “risky” or “bad” driver, which in turn allows them to jack up your rates. But it doesn’t have to end up this way!

Most analysis shows that if you plead guilty to a traffic ticket, your car insurance will shoot up by about 15-20%. And if you were to get another one (and again plead guilty), then you can expect your rates to go up by another 30%. So as you can plainly see, these tickets can cause your monthly bills to explode.

But again, this does not have to happen to you at all!! Instead of pleading guilty to the ticket (by signing the back of it, and mailing in the associated fine), you can have an experienced St Louis traffic ticket lawyer handle it for you.

ONLY $35 FOR MOST ST LOUIS TRAFFIC TICKETS!!

Yes, the court will require that you pay a fine after the ticket is amended down by the prosecutor. The reason for the fine is simple: it is the way in which that particular municipality makes money. Below I will provide an example of how the system works:

Let’s say you are pulled over and cited with a speeding ticket in St Louis. You hire an attorney so that he/she can work out a deal with the local prosecutor (so that no points go on your driving record, and your auto insurance doesn’t jump up), and that deal results in a reduction of the speeding ticket (from a moving violation to a non-moving violation).

$35 TO HANDLE MOST ST LOUIS SPEEDING TICKETS

It depends of just how fast you were going. And it will also depend on which municipality we’re talking about. But either way, it is still best to hire a good St. Louis speeding ticket lawyer to help you out (because simply pleading guilty is not your best option!!)

Let’s say you were doing 75 in a 60mph zone. So that’s obviously fifteen miles over the speed limit. In this kind of scenario, most prosecutors are willing to amend (i.e. reduce) the moving violation down to a non-moving violation. If it is reduced to a non-moving violation, then no points will be put on your permanent driving record. “Points” are like little red flags that make appear as if you are a bad driver (which in turn will allow your auto insurance provider to jack up your monthly rates).

MOST ST LOUIS MISDEMEANORS CAN BE HANDLED FOR ONLY $675

It depends on a number of factors. For instance: Is it your first offense? Were there multiple citations issued by the police officer? Where were you when the crime was allegedly committed? Several factors play into whether or not the misdemeanor charge can be taken care of.

But let’s assume that this is your first offense. And let’s further assume that the charge is for theft / stealing in St. Louis (in which the alleged amount stolen has a value of less than $500). This is described as a Class A Misdemeanor (which can come with up to one (1) year of jail time, and a $1,000 fine). If you do nothing with this charge (for instance, if you do not hire an attorney, or even show up on the court date, then a bench warrant will be issued for your arrest, and that’s not something you want to happen (but if it does, we can take care of that as well).
