Wife is a lawyer. Before she started working for the Feds doing speeding tickets was one of the things she (and a lot of other lawyers handled) as a side gig. Your client goes into court, pleads guilty to a different vehicle sin, pays a larger fine (and the lawyer), but doesn’t have the points. Since many lawyers did it the cost wasn’t high.
The courts knew it happened and, for the most part, appreciated the higher fine and figured the speeder learned a tough lesson and let it go at that. I suspect the habitual speeder would get his/her license yanked.
We don’t charge anything unless we win. Then we will give you some money if we feel like it. This is true from what I’ve read about some high profile cases, a party the lawyer threw on his yacht was a legal expense!!! He spent a few minutes discussing the case with his associates!!!

It’s not worth it, Abbs, and I’m still pretty certain you don’t really have enough of an actual case to make here anyway.
