Attorney-- Help When You Need It Most

Christine had everything to be happy about: a new job, a college degree and even a new car from her parents. She felt so confident about everything that was going right. She felt secure with her new job, she was able to pay her bills and even had a little savings started. But, after one weekend away visiting her college friends, Christine needed big time help and fast. She needed the help of an attorney.

Christine had not seen her best friends from college since earlier in the year. After all, becoming a full time employee at the museum was a big responsibility that left her with very little time to socialize. She thought to herself, there are not many people who get a job in their field so soon after graduating college. So, she did not mind that she didn't have as much of a social life as she was accustomed to. But, one weekend she and her friends decided that it was time to meet up at their old college town.

She made all of her preparations early in the week so that she could leave Friday after work and be back in time for work on Monday morning. And, if someone told Christine that she would be calling an attorney Monday morning when she arrived back at work, she would have laughed at them. 

It was Friday after work and Christine had set out on her way to her old college town. Driving her new car was great, very fuel efficient, but also very fast. Christine was not aware of just how fast she was driving. Her new car was so quiet and peppy that it did not occur to her to check her speed. But, as it turns out, the police officer that stopped her informed her that she was going 95 mph in a 45mph, and in a work zone no less. Christine was horrified to find out that her speeding ticket would be close to $600 and she would have to appear in court as well. But, this did not dampen her spirit she had to get to her reunion with her friends. So, she put aside her ticket for the weekend.

So, on Monday morning Christine set out on the road to return home and go back to work. She left early in the morning so that she could arrive in time for work at 8 am. But, just as she thought things were going along smoothly Christine noticed red flashing lights once again. This time she was going 30 miles over the speed limit. This ticket was also pricey at $495. By the time Christine got back to town she was a wreck. She could not believe that in one weekend she had incurred nearly a thousand dollars worth of fines and court.

But, luckily for Christine, her co workers at her office gave her the number of a good attorney. And, she was able to avoid court and reduce some of her fines. Of course she had to pay her attorney, but this was much more favorable than having points on her insurance for speeding tickets.
