Traffic Violations

The stress of being handed a ticket can carry on long after you are pulled over. Far from being minor nuisances, traffic tickets and moving violations have the power to seriously upset your life. Fees quickly mount, and points from tickets can cause your insurance premiums to skyrocket or result in a revoked or suspended license. At Moriarity & Badaruddin, PLLC, we appreciate how serious traffic violations are. We work on your behalf to get the charges you face reduced or dismissed so that you can regain your peace of mind. Our firm represents clients in the Missoula area and throughout Montana.

Whether you are handed a criminal or civil charge for your alleged offense, there may be significant negative consequences if you plead guilty. Giving in and paying a fine rather than contesting the charge in court could come back to haunt you when your insurance bill arrives or if you get another ticket. A lawyer from Moriarity & Badaruddin, PLLC can be by your side in court and work to have your charges dropped or reduced to result in less serious penalties.

We represent clients in Montana traffic violation cases involving:

• Reckless driving
• Speeding
• Expired registration
• Expired license
• Running a red light or stop sign
• Failure to signal when changing lanes
• Failure to wear a seatbelt

Our team possesses the knowledge needed to defend your rights and protect your best interests as you navigate the court system. We handle moving and nonmoving violations of all kinds.

At Moriarity & Badaruddin, PLLC, we are thoughtful and detail-oriented in our approach to traffic violation defense. We will examine every aspect of your case, including the police report, to see if the law enforcement officer violated standard procedures or failed to perform their duties as required. In addition, we will interview you to obtain as much information as possible regarding the circumstances surrounding your violation. Sharing your story with the judge may help.

At Moriarity & Badaruddin, PLLC, we explore every scenario before determining the best course of action, and during trial we can question those who make accusations against you. We handle each case with compassion and a commitment to helping our clients get relief.
