Absolutely recommend Hendrick & Henry Law for any traffic violations you may be involved with. The best qualities: responsive, responsible, honest and fair. All I can say are positive qualities. My case almost over 2 years old and they never made me feel like they abandoned the case or that I was left on my own. 100% recommend them.

Working with Hendrick & Henry Law was the best decision I ever made. Everyone is helpful, kind, patient…I only have good things to say. Ben Mozingo was my lawyer, and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. My traffic citation was resolved quickly and painlessly. Can’t recommend enough!

They were absolutely amazing all around! I was about to lose my job because of a ticket I got that suspended my CDL. They were able to completely get it off my record and restore my CDL and my job! They were all very friendly and easy to deal with. I couldn’t recommend them enough!

What’s the Big Deal?

Why should I pay for an attorney in addition to possibly paying for fines?

Simple:

Because we’ll save you money. While it costs more up front to hire a lawyer when you receive a traffic ticket in Georgia, you’ll save more over time if they are successful in avoiding the consequences to your driving history. In addition to your fine, your insurance rates could increase anywhere from $400 to $1000 per year, over the next three (3) to seven (7) years. This is anywhere from $1200 to $7000 in savings you might be leaving on the table.

Many drivers don’t realize the hidden costs that follow a traffic citation until it’s too late. Convictions can also cause your life insurance rates to climb. And yes—you will have that dreaded “record” next time you’re in court. You don’t need to take our word for it. Call your insurance company to ask what might happen to your rate if you’re convicted of a ticket (hypothetically, of course!).

With some offenses, depending on the jurisdiction your case is in, it just does not make good sense to hire a lawyer. While we cannot ethically offer guarantees, our experienced network of attorneys know when we can likely add value vs. when we’ll just cost you extra. For more information or immediate help on your specific case, call our team now at 404-310-9795.

Our traffic and speeding ticket lawyers have proven success in courts across the state of Georgia

We do all the work and appear on your behalf. Whenever possible.
It’s that simple.
No cost consultation
No Office Visit Necessary
No stress for you

Our highly specialized traffic law division of our firm deals only with traffic and speeding issues. That means that our firms’ attorneys are actually practicing in the courts where your ticket will be prosecuted — day to day, month to month, and year to year.

For minor tickets, we’re extremely successful in avoiding any conviction and the corresponding points from being reported on your record. Aside from a couple signatures from you, we do all the work and appear on your behalf. Whenever possible. It’s that simple.

For more serious charges such as racing, reckless driving, and 100 mph+ speeding tickets, you may need to come to court with us depending on the judge. While we’ll swing for the fences to eliminate any record/points for these as well, sometimes a non-reporting result isn’t possible. In these circumstances, we fight tooth and nail to keep you out of custody, off probation, and to prevent your license from suspension.

Recently, we’ve seen a push by some data-mining companies to find infractions even if they are not on your driving record (other ticket defense firms won’t tell you this). They sell this information to your insurance company so they can raise your rates. At Hendrick and Henry, we do everything in our power to make this as difficult for your insurance company as we can.
