Harriman is a small village in the southeast area of Orange County, New York. Parts of Harriman are in Monroe and Woodbury, NY. Several major roads pass through Harriman, including New York Routes 17, 17M and 32, as well as US Route 6 and Interstate 87, the New York State Thruway. If you were ticketed while driving on any of these or on any other road in Harriman, NY, a knowledgeable traffic attorney may be able to help you fight your ticket.

Before you pay a fine for a traffic ticket in Harriman, NY, speak me, Jonathan D. Katz. I am a knowledgeable attorney and I’ve represented many clients who thought getting a traffic ticket made them automatically guilty. Not true! The reality is that police officers make mistakes. A knowledgeable attorney can make sure you explore all available options when fighting your traffic ticket, whether that involves inspecting faulty radar gun readings or challenging the officer’s probable cause to stop your vehicle in the first place. Without an attorney representing you, you may be more likely to incur severe penalties that include heavy fines, points on your driver’s license and even jail time. If you get too many points on your license within a certain time period, you could have your driving privileges suspended or revoked. Beyond that, the insurance company could raise your premiums if you are considered a “high-risk” driver.

What Will Happen in Harriman Village Traffic Court?
  • Pre-Trial Plea Bargaining: I have honed my negotiating skills over several decades of experience in New York traffic courts. Before your case goes to trial, I will speak with the police officer and/or the prosecutor. If the police officer who ticketed you made an illegal traffic stop or committed a procedural error before, during or after the traffic stop, I may be able to convince the officer that it is in everyone’s best interests to dismiss the charges.

    Even if no mistakes were made with regard to your traffic ticket, I will negotiate with the officer and the prosecutor to potentially get your charges reduced to a non-moving violation that carries no points. If you were ticketed for multiple offenses, I will try to get all of them merged into a single charge.

  • Trial in Harriman Village Court: I always prepare traffic cases for trial because I never want to be caught off guard. My first plan of attack will be to get your charges dismissed or reduced to a favorable plea deal. If your case does to go trial in Harriman Traffic Court, I will fight for you at trial, question witnesses, scrutinize opposing evidence and present favorable evidence so that you can avoid the most severe penalties.

Keep in mind that the negotiation process with Harriman, NY prosecutors and police officers will probably be much easier if you have an experienced attorney representing you. When I stand up for you in Harriman Village Court, I will negotiate with the other side and, if necessary, argue to the judge that your charges should be dismissed or reduced.

★★★★★
I had a wonderful experience working with this law firm. They took care of everything for me, I did not even have to attend court. My 4 point ticket was reduced to a 0 pt violation , which I was very pleased with. Jonathan Katz and his associates worked in a very timely manner and I didn't have to worry or stress about the process at all. I live 2 plus hours from the area where the ticket was received and I was very pleased how minimally I was involved in the process yet, was kept very informed. Liz was very professional , effective, a pleasure to work with and made the process very easy for me. I would highly recommend Jonathan Katz law firm !! Nealie

Got a traffic ticket in Dutchess County. First one in a long time. So I looked for local traffic attorney and saw Jonathan Katz Law with great views. Susan took my call, she was very patient and provided me with a lot of valuable information. She explained the process and the options available. She encouraged me to do more homework first (e.g. calling the town court, checking with insurance company etc.) before deciding whether to use their service. She also followed up with an email, showing me how to retrieve my NYS driving record. She’s professional, responsive and honest. Truly exceptional service, highly recommend! massa in ullamcorper.
