Over the past few weeks, we have noticed a significant increase in the number of calls from potential clients who have been cited for criminal speeding – also known as excessive speeding – in Mayer, Arizona. The two most common ways a person can be cited for criminal speeding is if they were traveling more than 20 miles per hour over the posted speed limit, or more than 85 miles per hour on the highway. Mayer, Arizona is a speed trap. There are Arizona Highway Patrol officers who hide behind bushes in an effort to catch people off guard and pop them for speeding. In my experience representing clients all over the State of Arizona, I have found, the smaller the court, the more significant the consequences.
There are some courts that mandate a minimum jail sentence for anyone traveling faster than 100 miles per hour. These are serious that need to be handled by an attorney who is familiar with representing clients for criminal speeding cases. If you have been cited, you are facing a CLASS 3 CRIMINAL CHARGE. One of the ancillary benefits of having a lawyer – assuming you don’t live in Mayer – is we will attend a majority of your hearings without our clients having to be present. In fact, if our clients live out of state, there is a strong possibility that we will be able to represent them without them having to ever return to Arizona.
