Many drivers do not realize that, in Louisiana, unpaid traffic tickets – even those for minor infractions like failing to use a turn signal – automatically result in arrest warrants after a set time period.  If you have a long outstanding traffic ticket, you could potentially have a warrant out for your arrest.  As a result, you face being taken into custody and even serving a jail sentence if police pull you over for any reason and determine you have an arrest warrant.

You do not want to wait until you are arrested to deal with an outstanding warrant in your name. It is important to be proactive and to speak with a New Orleans traffic court attorney as soon as possible if you believe the court has issued a traffic warrant in your name.  The attorneys at Bloom Legal can help you to clear bench warrants, in many cases without you ever needing to go to court.  With the help of an experienced attorney, you can avoid arrest, deal with your traffic tickets and resolve once and for all the problem of outstanding traffic warrants.

Unpaid Tickets

When a police officer issues a ticket for a traffic violation, the driver is required to sign the back of the ticket. Signing the ticket is not an admission of guilt but it represents the driver’s agreement to appear in court on the date listed on the ticket or pay the traffic fine before that date.

Failure to appear in court to pay the traffic fine will, in many cases, cause a judge to issue a traffic attachment or bench warrant for the driver’s arrest. This means that if you have not paid your traffic tickets and are stopped by a police officer for any reason you can be arrested on the spot.

How a Traffic Ticket Attorney Can Help

To avoid a traffic warrant, it is important to contact an attorney as soon as you are issued a traffic ticket.  Your attorney can help you to respond appropriately to the ticket, either by pleading not guilty or by entering a guilty plea in exchange for lesser penalties.

If you have unpaid tickets, it is important to contact a New Orleans traffic ticket attorney for help in determining if you have warrants out for your arrest. In many cases, an attorney will be able to contact the court on your behalf and negotiate to have your traffic warrants lifted or suspended.

    "I contacted Bloom Legal out of the blue with a strange question for a fiction series I’m writing that takes place in New Orleans. Being from Maryland I was in the dark and needed assistance and they jumped at the chance to help me (they were the only law firm that responded to my e-mail). His team worked quickly and carefully to find the information I needed. Because of the help they provided it changed a large aspect of my novel and for that I am very grateful."
