Just got a speeding ticket this morning on SR 500 near St Johns in Vancouver. Anyone have any recommendations for a good traffic lawyer in the Portland/Vancouver area? Thanks!

I don't know if you have to appear in court for speeding tickets because I have never got one(I drive like a grandma LOL) but when I got in trouble for having people in my car before my 6 months was up a long time ago it really helped. Normally showing up to court reduces most tickets so it could save you some money which is always good.

Thanks knella for sharing - unfortunately my ticket was for speeding in a construction zone, and according to the Washington RCWs, the ticket cannot be reduced, or deferred, so I have to have a lawyer fight it in court to get it dismissed, otherwise it goes on my record.
