Don’t Let the Warrant Roundup Take You by Surprise
Lest the Roundup catch you unaware, if you have neglected to pay a past traffic ticktet or forgotten to appear in court and enter your plea after receiving a traffic ticket, you could find there is an outstanding arrest warrant for you. In addition to the underlying tickets and the Warrant for Arrest, you could also have a Failure to Appear charge against you. No matter how valid your reason for forgetting to pay your traffic ticket or appear in court actually is, you will likely receive little compassion from law enforcement personnel when they begin arresting those with warrants beginning March 2, 2013. There are a variety of ways in which the attorneys of Sullo & Sullo can assist you.
Avoiding an Embarrassing Arrest
Officers will take you where they find you, no matter how embarrassing or inconvenient it may be for you. Then, as if getting a ride in a police car is not humiliating enough, you will be left to deal with your original traffic violation. Be aware that paying your past due tickets is equivalent to pleading guilty and will result in a conviction and points on your driving record. Even though these offenses are generally Class C misdemeanors, you could conceivably end up paying huge insurance premiums, paying surcharges to the state of Texas for as long as three years and even losing your license should your points accrue to a specific level.
A Better Resolution is Possible
It can be a much better resolution to allow a Sullo & Sullo attorney to post the bond for you, removing the threat of arrest. Once that is done, you can discuss your options with your lawyer, making a joint decision as to best way to proceed. Not only are our attorneys extremely well-prepared, they have been helping people just like you for a long time. Compassion, professionalism and experience have made this potentially frightening time much less so for many Houstonians. Our attorneys will attempt to negotiate a plea for your original ticket so no points are added to your driving record. We will also help you navigate through the entire process in a way which will hopefully result in the very best resolution possible. Before you write a check for you past traffic violations, talk to one of our attorneys—we keep your best interests in mind and will work hard to minimize the damage to your future.
