Bull*****. I recently placed lawer rates to contest a ticket of mine (speeding) and it was $600 for a basic trial by declaration, $1,200 (minimum, plus expenses) for trial representation with discovery and over $2,500 for representation by a highly-aggressive (and successful) attorney that has a 99% success rate in winning speeding ticket cases.
I haven't decided which way to go yet, but I'm actually leaning towards the $2,500 one, since it'd probably be cheaper than the increased insurance premiums.
Any notion of paying a lawyer "a couple of hundred bucks" and expecting miracles is ridiculous.
