Johnson County, Kansas Traffic Law Center | Traffic & Speeding Ticket Amendment Lawyers-Attorneys-Law Firm | Amendments, Diversions, Legal Representation

Mission Hills, KS may be a small town, but that won't stop speeding, stop sign, red light, or other traffic tickets issued by Mission Hills police from affecting your driving record and auto insurance rates.

Our law firm's Mission Hills traffic attorneys can amend ("fix") most Mission Hills speeding tickets, resulting in a charge of "illegal parking," a non-moving violation that will not negatively affect your driving record or insurance rates

Call (913)764-5010 to speak to one of our law office's Mission Hills traffic attorneys.  We can appear in Mission Municipal Court on your behalf, negotiate with the Mission Municipal Prosecutor and have your speeding, red light, turn violation, stop sign, signal or other traffic ticket amended to "illegal parking" or another non-moving violation.

Simply paying a traffic/speeding ticket in Mission Hills, KS can bring negative effects ranging from the cost and inconvenience of paying to the ticket to higher insurance rates for years to the loss or suspension of your driver's license.

We can amend most Mission Hills speeding tickets to non-moving violations such as "illegal parking." This amendment will not reflect negatively on your driving record or your insurance rates, it will simply look like any other parking ticket. 

We have seen instances where our clients just paid a ticket and saw their insurance premiums increase by thousands of dollars per year!  We have also had clients simply pay a ticket and suddenly find a letter in their mailbox from the Kansas Department of Revenue informing them that their driver's license has been suspended for 30 days, 90 days, or even 3 years!

If you are like most folks, you need your driver's license to get to work and to care for your loved ones.  The State of Kansas, however, does not care. If your license gets suspended, you cannot ask for a "hardship" license to get to work - they simply expect you to stay home or get a ride.  The conclusion is clear - you want to keep EVERY ticket off of your record!

Other traffic violations in Mission Hills can also be amended or "diverted." Diversion is basically a contract between you and the City where you agree to stay out of trouble for a period of time (3, 6, 9, or 12 months), and the City agrees to dismiss the charge if you do so.  

Our law firm also handles driving under the influence (DUI) charges in Mission Hills Municipal Court and Johnson County District Court. 

Every Mission Hills, Kansas (and every Kansas) DUI/DWI charge will have 2 components:  (1)The criminal proceedings in Mission Hills Municipal Court or Johnson County District Court; and (2) the administrative proceeding where the State is trying to suspend your driving privileges.

Mission Hills DUI charges and your driver's license:  If you have been charged with a DUI in Mission Hills, Johnson County, or elsewhere in Kansas, you need to take action immediately!  In most Mission Hills (and Kansas) DUI cases, you only have 10 days from the date of your arrest to request an administrative hearing or your license will be automatically suspended for a period between 30 days and life, depending on the circumstances. 

Once a hearing is properly requested, your driving privileges will remain valid until a hearing is held, usually 8-12 weeks from the date of your arrest.  The administrative  hearing for your license will take place with the Kansas Department of Revenue.  Contact us today to schedule a no-cost consultation.  If you retain this law firm for your Mission HIlls DUI, we will request a hearing on your behalf.
