You Get What You Pay For
Attorneys are like everything else in life...you get what you pay for. Some attorneys are very expensive and some are extremely inexpensive. If you get quoted a fee by an attorney for your criminal charges and that fee seems low, you need to take a moment and remember the statement above. That attorney most likely isn’t going to put the time into your case that is required.
I have had many people come in my office and tell me that they never met their attorney except for the day they paid them and the day that they plead their charges out. The individual then begs me to help them out by withdrawing their plea. Most often times, I cannot help them. The attorney never put the time into the case because they quoted a low fee and only did a minimal amount of work. Do not let this happen to you.
Remember, if you have been arrested in Dade, arrested in Broward, or arrested in Palm Beach, call criminal defense attorney Phillip Menditto for help and a quote on your fees.

Florida Point System
Florida Point System
In 2007, 24,994 drivers in Florida got their driver's license suspended because of point accumulation. If you receive a traffic ticket be careful with how you handle it so you do not get your license suspended.
Remember, you do not get points when you receive a traffic ticket. You only get points when you pay a traffic ticket, or are found guilty in Traffic Court. You may be able to avoid points on your driver's license by electing traffic school, or hiring a Florida traffic ticket attorney. If you already have points on your license, an experienced traffic ticket attorney may even be able to help you remove them.
The following is information on points assessed against your driver license if you choose to pay the civil penalty or are adjudicated guilty by a Traffic Judge or Magistrate.
Traffic Violation Points Assessed
Non-Moving violations 0 points
Moving violations (non-speeding, no accident) 3 Points

Unlawful speed resulting in a crash 6 Points
