What will happen if I don't pay a speeding ticket in Kansas?

If you were given a Speeding ticket in Kansas or a Traffic ticket in Kansas you need to do something with it.  That something should not be neglect it...throw it away...of expect it to go away.  It’s really simple what will happen to you if you don't take care of it and you really have a couple of options each with different consequences.

Pay the fine on the speeding ticket :  If you pay the fine on the speeding ticket before the date on the ticket you are pleaing guilty to the charge.  It’s the exact same as going to the court and telling the judge that you are guilty of the charge listed on the ticket.  This is something that you can do.  If you choose to do this then the city or county where you received the speeding ticket will take the money and report your guilty plea to the Kansas Department of Revenue.  The department of revenue will then account the plea on your license and your insurance company or job will be able to discover the guilty plea when they run your driving record .  If you get more than three of these moving violations in a 12 month period the State of Kansas can suspend your driver's license.

Hire an Attorney :  Many people find it wise to hire an attorney for speeding and traffic tickets.  An attorney can go to court for you and try to negotiate a way to keep the ticket off your record, either through a diversion or an amendment.  An attorney also might find it prudent to set your case for trial and try to convince a judge that you are innocent.  These are all possibilities...  On a large majority of cases an attorney can keep the charges off your record and you never have to go to court.

Throw the ticket away and never address it:   This is not a good idea.  If you skip your court date and never send in the payment you are making the worst possible decision for yourself in regards to the ticket.  If you don't go to court the judge will issue a warrant for your arrest and set a bond.  If you continue not to come to court the city or county will send a notice to the State of Kansas to suspend your driver's license.  If your driver's license has been suspended the state will send a notice to the address on your driver's license.  If you haven't updated your address and you have moved you won't get the notice.

If you don't get notice you will continue to drive and eventually you will get pulled over and then you will get arrested.  You will be charged with driving on a suspended driver's license and you will be looking at a mandatory 5 days in jail.  You will have to stay in jail until you can post the bond that the judge set for you and then you will have to go back to court like you should have in the first place.

Don't do this!  When you get a ticket you need to get it handled.  If you don't hire a lawyer you still need to get it handled.  You need to be responsible and get the ticket resolved or things will only get worse for you.

Look to Reviews when you are hiring an Attorney.

There are a lot of attorneys in the KC metro area.  How do you know who you can trust?  How do you know that your case isn't your prospective attorney's first case? Like many people this may be your first time looking for an attorney to help you so you might not know who to call.  Thanks to google, avvo, cityslick.org, and yelp you can do some research before you pull the trigger on hiring an attorney for your speeding ticket, driving on a suspended license , or dui.  You can look to the reviews of other people that were once like yourself, looking for a trustworthy attorney in a sea of unknown attorneys.  We put these review links right up on our website for everyone to see.  We service our clients well and treat everyone as if they are the most important client we have.  Because of that attitude, we have 100% 5 star reviews.  So go with an attorney you can trust, and one that others trust too.

Just look at what our past clients are saying about us on Google.

I called Ticket Guy because I got a speeding ticket in Leawood Kansas and didn't pay it and got a suspended license . Then I got a driving while suspended ticket in Kansas City, and then another in Mission. He got everything taken care of and charged my literally about half what the other two lawyers I called wanted. The ticket guy is great and always called me back right away. A+++++

Brandon was very helpful, he got my ticket amended when no other Lawyer said it could be done because I was going 26 over. The price was cheap and he sent me back a copy of the reciept from the court the same day I was supposed to go. I would recommend and go back if I have any more speeding ticket troubles.

Response from the owner

Thanks for the review. There are a lot of options when you get a speeding ticket I'm happy we were able to keep your drivng record clean.

Inquired about a speeding ticket. Quick response. Process handled exactly like he stated. Even got them to drop the no drivers license change. Will recommend to friends and family. Awesome service.

Response from the owner

Thanks! I try and save you money when I see an opportunity. I really appreciate the review.

Manuel ‎ - Dec 30, 2010

Honest and Sincere!!! I consulted Mr. Davies about a recent speeding ticket in Lenexa, Kansas. He asked me a few questions before doing research on my situation with that particular municipality. He promptly returned my call, and layed out my options about taking care of my ticket. Even though I decided to go ahead and pay the ticket since it would save me money with insurance, I will most definitely keep him in mind for my future issues. He did not ask for a single cent for his advise and time. I wish I could give Mr. Davies 10 out of 5 stars. Should any of my friends or family members have a traffic ticket in the future I will let them know to not look anywhere else!!! Thanks for your time and everyone out there...HE IS "THE" TICKET GUY to turn to!!!

Response from the owner

I always try and save people money if possible. Glad it worked out for you.

Kathryn ‎ - Nov 8, 2010

HONEST and HELPFUL! Mr. Davies was extremely helpful when I called him today. I was certain I would have to pay twice my speeding fine ($255*2) plus an attorneyfee ($80) to ammend my ticket in Olathe , KS. Brandan gave me some advise, and suggested calling my insurance company before having it ammended, with the thought that even an increased premium for 3 years would cost less than ($255 + 255 + 80 = $590). Turns out my premium wouldn't go up for another year, and by that time, an old ticket would have rolled off my driving record resulting in NO increase in premium! Brandan, thank you so much for saving me $335, even though you didn't earn a penny. Most attorney's would have charged at least $100 fee and never suggested any other options... I know this, as I spoke to 3 others before calling you :) Thanks again!

Response from the owner

Thanks, I'm glad it worked out for you. If I can save people money I'll always tell them their options.

April ‎ - Nov 2, 2010

A Good and Honest attorney Brandon is a great honest guy. I got a ticket and he coached me on what I should do to get it taken care off so that it wouldn't go on my driving record. Other attorneys I called wanted $400 to $600 to take care of a $160 ticket, he only charged $80, which is pretty reasonable for a ticket of that price. If you need someone to take care of your ticket, call The KC Ticket Guy. I'm very happy with his services and prices, that I would tell anyone and everyone to go talk to him.

Response from the owner

I appreciate the kind words. If you ever get another Kansas Speeding Ticket give me a call.

Anonomous- Oct 20, 2010

Nice, Reasonable, and Accommodating Mr. Davies was very easy to work with. I had a speeding ticket in Olathe and he helped me with it. He charged a very reasonable fee and he even met up with me on my lunch hour to give me a reciept from the court that my ticket had been fixed! If I ever get another speeding ticket in Kansas (hopefully I won't) I will use his services again. Thanks again! There are not many lawyers that I know that would go out of their way like he did.

Response from the owner

Thanks for the positive review! If you have anymore Speeding Tickets in Kansas I'd gladly help you again.

Becky ‎ - Oct 13, 2010

A Cheap, Fast, and Friendly Lawyer Brandon helped me with a traffic ticket in Overland Park , he also helped me with a suspended license at less than half what other attorneys wanted. I didn't have to be in limbo for a long time he called me every couple of days to let me know what was going on with my case. I saved his number in my phone for next time I get a speeding or traffic ticket. Thanks Ticket Guy!

Todd ‎ - Oct 1, 2010

does what he says I got 2 tickets in Kansas City, KS last week. One was a speeding ticket and one was a traffic ticket for running a red light. I tried him out because he said he'd only charge me $80 as his fee for both of the tickets (I usually pay over $100 with other lawyers I've gone through in the past). He did what he said and got it taken care of so I didn't get points off my license. He got it done quickly so I have no complaints.

Response from the owner

Todd, thanks for the review! If you get another speeding ticket or traffic ticket give me a call.

Jeff ‎ - Sep 28, 2010

Nice, Quick, and Painless Mr. Davis helped me over the phone with my ticket. He charged me like 1/2 the price other people were wanting. I hope I don't have to go back but I will surely use him again.

Response from the owner

Thanks for the review Jeff! It's Mr. Davies by the way but that's close enough. Let me know if you run into anymore trouble.

Manesh ‎ - Nov 23, 2010

Great for amending speeding ticket! One call, Mr. Davies explained the process and the fee structure. Sent me a Google check out, a week later sent me a receipt for an amended ticket. All I can say is – Fast and Professional.

Response from the owner

If you get anymore speeding ticket you know who to call.

courtney ‎ - Nov 19, 2010

Mr. Davies was very helpful. He charged me $84 to fix my speeding ticket in Kansas and he got my ticket fixed up so that my car insurance didn't go up. I had one other ticket like 2 years ago and it cost me a lot more to fix than than Mr. Davies charged. I've already told one friend of mine to use him and I'll continue to recomend him as a Lawyer . A+++ Service! A+++ Price!
