Mojave Court is well known statewide as being very heavy handed on
speeding tickets both from commercial and non-commercial drivers.
The CHP officers that patrol the lonely stretches of highway
surrounding the Courthouse are very "plugged in" to the judicial
system and therefore can make it very difficult to win a case unless
you have an equalizer on your side. Mojave attorneys Matt Ruff and
Alex Griggs are local and know the Judges, the DA, the clerks and all
Court staff better than anyone and can help level the playing field for
his clients fighting a ticket in this Court.

Recent Case Result
Our Firm was hired by a client living in West Los Angeles who was
caught speeding over 100mph through the Mojave area while on
business. The CHP wrote her for driving 107 in a 65 zone (Violation
VC22348b). We went to Court for her and set the case for trial, we
were able to avoid the posting of bail. At trial our Attorney Alex Griggs
brought a motion to dismiss which was granted by the Judge, ALL
CHARGES DISMISSED!
We charge affordable flat fees for the defense of most tickets and our
representation includes handling the case from start to finish, including
a trial, if necessary to achieve the best result. We are NOT the
cheapest attorneys in town! Our fees start at $750 for most tickets.
The case process takes anywhere from 30 to 90 days from the time
we get into Court at the arraignment and set the case for trial. We go
to Court for you on most cases, we actually appear in Court on most
cases while many cheaper web based ticket mills simply file a written
declaration.
Mojave CA Attorney Matthew Ruff and Alex Griggs handle all speeding
violations in the Mojave Court. Whether the citation be for reckless
driving, basic speed law or just driving faster than the sign allows, we
can defend you. The most common offenses that come before the
Judge are 100 mile per hour violations, Commercial Truck tickets,
reckless driving, DUI and driving on suspended license tickets. Traffic
School is generally not allowed if the speed exceeds 20 mph or if the
driver holds a commercial license. However, a Mojave Speeding
Ticket Attorney can often negotiate a favorable disposition or dismissal
of the original charge by going to Court and negotiating with the
Judge, D.A. or officer issuing the ticket. The majority of the ticket
cases we fight are for commercial drivers facing the negative prospect
of having too many points on their driving record or CDL, however we
also represent non-commercial speeding ticket cases in the mojave
court.
We extend a great deal of courtesy to professional drivers who keep
our country mving and offer heavily discounted fees to defend them
against oppressive citations handed out by overly aggressive law
enforcement concerned only with quotas and revenue generation for
the state of California.
Our win rate on cases of speeding in excess of 100mph is unmatched.
We enjoy a success rate of well over 90 percent for speeding tickets
for truck drivers and those charged with driving over 100 miles per
hour (VC22348b). In fact, our Mojave Speeding Ticket Attorneys enjoy
one of the highest dismissal rates among all lawyers in Kern County.
A classic example of the 100 plus speeding tickets he has one is
where the client was driving through the desert in a Ferrari heading to
Las Vegas, the client was driving at a speed above 115 mph. The
attorney took the case to trial and one, the charges were all dismissed.
In addition to the aggravated speed offenses such as VC22348b, our
speeding ticket law firm in Mojave tackles all commercial truck driving
violations, downhill truck speed and enjoy quite possibly the highest
success rate for dismissal of nearly 95%. We understand that having
a conviction on your record for speeding could mean the loss of your
job if you drive a truck for a living. Alex defends more truck driver
tickets than any other in the Mojave Court.
How To Avoid a Speeding Ticket (In some Cases)
It's a scary feeling, lights, sirens, your heart is thumping, sometimes
you know what you did, sometimes you don't. Here is what to do to try
and avoid being issued a ticket: First, have everything ready, your
registration, license, insurance card. Second, pull over to a safe
place, follow the officer's instructions if given and avoid stopping in a
location that is dangerous. DO NOT start searching your glove box or
console. This makes cops nervous and think you may be reaching for
a weapon. Turn your car and radio off. Roll down all your windows
and leave your seatbelt on. Leave both hands on the wheel, high at
the center so the officer can see them. The officer will usually
approach on the right side if the stop took place on the freeway. Now
the pivotal moment, this may determine whether you are given a
warning or a citation. Let the cop speak first. DO NOT ask why he
pulled you over, they will tell you. Next, apologize. Yes, apologize for
whatever the officer alleges you did. Be nice, your good attitude goes
a long way and may get you out of a ticket. If you are issued a citation
call us, if you weren't a jerk the cop may not show up, if he or she does
they will be more likely to agree to a dismissal or reduction of the
violation.
