Unlike many other defense attorneys I am NOT a former Assistant District Attorney nor a former police officer. I don't judge
our clients, I just defend them. In fact, I came to the practice of law as a second career. Prior to becoming an attorney
I spent 20 years as a business executive, eventually running a large subsidiary of a Fortune 500 company. While those years in private
business were challenging and rewarding, there came time that I wanted to do something different and more directly related to assisting
other people. So, I left the business world, went to law school, passed the New York State bar exam and became a practicing attorney. You can read my full bio here and meet our staff here.

Most people have had little contact with the police and the justice system. The system is confusing and scary. The consequences of a DWI arrest or even a traffic ticket can be devastating. At Magnell Law we're dedicated to providing professional, effective and affordable legal defense.
A simple speeding ticket shouldn't cause a great deal of angst. But, given the impact it can have on your pocketbook, driver's license and auto insurance its worth taking the time to fully understand what your options are and how a qualified attorney can help you minimize the impact of a ticket.

Attorneys at Law
More than 90,000 DWI related arrests are made in New York State every year. They can happen to almost anyone and can result in serious fines, dramatically increased insurance rates, loss of driving privileges, a permanent criminal record and even jail or prison sentences...
For most of the length of the Taconic Parkway traffic law enforcment is handled by units of the NYS police out of "Troop K' in Millbrook,
NY. State police troopers use both radar and laser speed detection systems and because of the winding, undulating nature of
the road there are many places where the police cannot be seen or detected before its too late to avoid a ticket.
Your
chance of being given a speeding ticket on the Taconic is higher than on any other highway in NYS. Learn more about Taconic Traffic
Enforcement in each county,
click here.
Traffic cases from tickets along the Taconic are handled by more than a dozen different local courts. Prosecution of the tickes
is done by town prosecutors in every county except Columbia County where traffic prosecutions are done by the District Attorney's
Office.
Every court and prosecutor has different standards regarding "plea bargaining" for a reduction in the charges.
Almost any ticket can be reduced. How, much of a reduction is possible depends on the charge, your driving record and what court
has the case. For detailed info on each court,

On the Taconic speeds of more than 10-12 mph over the speed limit will routinely result
in a police stop and speeding ticket. Enforcement is intense in E. Fishkill, LaGrange, Stanford, Milan, Ghent, Claverack andChatham. To learn more about NYS traffic law, click here.
