Those sources are not talking about New Jersey courts and New Jersey law. Unless you fight back, the chances of success are slim. Our New Jersey traffic ticket attorneys will fight for you!

From Newark to East Brunswick, Jersey City to Atlantic City, our DWI & traffic ticket attorneys can represent you in any court in New Jersey. With offices in New Brunswick, Toms River, Eatontown & Monroe, our attorneys are each to reach from anywhere in New Jersey.

Insurance points in New Jersey

Insurance points are used by insurance carriers to determine the level of premiums that an insured must pay for liability coverage. A total of 7 or fewer points will determine the tier of coverage for which an insured may qualify when purchasing insurance in the NJ voluntary market. An accumulation of more than 7 insurance points will disqualify you from purchasing insurance in the voluntary market. Thus, you should have a good New Jersey DWI & traffic tickets attorney on your side to defend you!

If you cannot purchase on the New Jersey voluntary market, you may attempt to purchase insurance on an assigned risk basis through the New Jersey Automobile Insurance Plan (N.J.P.A.I.P), although the premiums for even basic, minimal coverage will be more expensive than the rates available in the voluntary market. Thus, it is extremely important to protect your record or you could be paying for years.
