I need to know the actual charges. Were you arrested?Did you get an appearance ticket? Did you get a pink summons returnable in Criminal Court or did you get a summons returnable at Transit Adjudication Bureau? These factors will defermine the possibilities. You may call my office @7188340087 for a consultation.

You should not expect jail time, but it would be highly recommended to have an experienced lawyer with you defending you and preserving your rights in court. It would also greatly increase the chance of lowering the charges or possible dismissal. We have substantial experience handling these types of cases and reasonable fees, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.
