A: 1. It depends on the circumstances - I or any other criminal attorney can give you an answer on this - just call for a free consult - text - consult to 914-912-1555 and myself or my traffic guy Michael Palumbo will get back to you; 2. You definitely need to speak to someone (I will speak to you free) and will likely need a lawyer to make a motion to quash the charge (which depending on the lawyer will cost between $350 and $1000
