When it's bigger than a ticket
Specialist traffic lawyers
Our letters handle infringement notices. Some situations need a human lawyer in your corner — and going early is almost always cheaper than going late.
You likely need a lawyer if…
- ⚖️ You've received a court summons or been charged (not just ticketed)
- 🚫 Your licence is at risk — demerit suspension, disqualification, or you drive for a living
- 🍺 It's a drink or drug-driving charge (EBA) rather than an infringement
- 💥 There was a crash, an injury, or a careless/dangerous driving allegation
- 🔁 You're a repeat offender and the stakes have compounded
Our vetted panel is coming
We're currently partnering with specialist traffic lawyers. Until the panel is live, these are the fastest reliable routes to representation:
- 🔎 NZ Law Society — Find a Lawyer (filter by "Traffic offences" and your region)
- 🏛️ Community Law — free initial legal help nationwide
- 💰 Facing criminal charges? Ask about legal aid — many people qualify and don't realise.
- ⏱️ Duty lawyers are available free at every District Court on your first appearance.
Just got an infringement notice? Check it free first — most notices never need a lawyer.
