Do I need to hire an attorney to dispute a Braves parking citation?

Having a lawyer when fighting parking citations is entirely unnecessary. Hiring a representative is not only expensive but also incredibly time-consuming. There are many things to pay attention to when searching for the perfect candidate. If you would feel more confident with a lawyer by your side, make sure to take the following steps before hiring anyone:

  1. Consider at least several candidates. That way, you will know what kind of price is reasonable, and you won’t get overcharged.
  2. Look for candidates with experience in fighting parking infringements. An attorney with another expertise, no matter how reputable, won’t be of much help.
  3. Look out for frauds. There are many people out there who could try to scam you.
  4. Interview each candidate to see who will be a perfect fit for you and your case.
  5. Do your research. Check each candidate’s credentials and reviews.
  6. Consider the expenses. Lawyers are quite pricey, and hiring someone may not be profitable.

How much does a parking ticket lawyer cost in Atlanta?

Can I get a ticket while I’m seated behind the wheel?

Sure you can. You sitting inside doesn’t make stopping your car in a restricted area . To avoid getting citations, make sure you stop your vehicle in a proper parking spot when you need to make an urgent phone call or stop for any other reason. Of course, if an officer comes to give you a ticket, you can always ask them politely to let you go and promise to move the car right away. Don’t try to run away before they serve you a ticket, as it will be sent to your address anyway.

Do I need to pay the fine if I was driving a rental car?

Absolutely. The rental company will see you as liable for all driving violations you make while the car is in your care. Most car rental companies, such as Kayak, require their clients to obey the law. If you receive a parking ticket while driving a rental car, the company will pay the fine in your stead. They will also charge all their expenses, as well as some additional fees, to your credit card.

Do I have to pay the infringement if I don’t live in Georgia?

Yes, you do. Parking tickets don’t have an expiry date and are valid all across the States. If you’re not a resident of Georgia, you still can’t get away with your violation. The ticket will arrive at your home address. Luckily, you can use DoNotPay to dispute it remotely.

I don’t want to pay for the ticket. What’s the worst thing that can happen?

If you parked your car in any of the official Braves parking lots and left it there for more than three hours on a game day, you won’t get a fine. Your car will be instantly towed away at your expense. If this happens, you will have to pay the fine and the storage fees. It could cost you between $100 and $800 to reclaim your vehicle. If you suspect your car got towed away, you can search for a company that claimed it here.

If you receive a parking ticket in the streets surrounding the stadium and not pay for it in two weeks, the penalty will increase. The fine will double and your car might get booted. It will cost you around $50 to remove the boot. According to Atlanta laws, if you do not pay for boot removal, your car will be towed away.

You can read about some experiences with ignoring citations on this Reddit thread.

Do parking tickets go on my driving record?

Fortunately, they don’t. You won’t receive any penal points for your parking violations. But that doesn’t mean there won’t be any consequences. If you pile up several unpaid tickets, the DMV will refuse to renew your license and car registration.

Can a citation increase my insurance?

Luckily, the answer is no. Auto insurance companies, such as Peachstate, aren’t notified about any violations that are not on your driving record. Still, if the DMV causes trouble when you try to prolong your driver’s license due to unpaid tickets, your insurance company will probably refuse to renew your policy.

How much does Atlanta make from parking citations?
