Default Traffic lawyers in/near Ellicott city MD?

As the title says, has anyone used a traffic lawyer in this area? Is there any sort of ticket clinic for us marylanders? What was the outcome?

I ported my tb today and took the car out for a spin, definitely a huge difference in throttle response. I don't know why I didn't do this sooner! Anyways, I drove around until i found an empty road and half throttled it in 3rd. Just as I let off a car appears in the distance, and wouldn't ya know it, its a squad car. He says he got me for 72 in a 40, but I let off before 4000 rpms (lt's are triggering the knock sensor at 4k so I stay under that for now). I didn't bother arguing with the officer since that would have been useless anyways. the fine isn't an issue, I just don't want this on my record.

so... anyone?

Whats your driving record like? What agency stopped you? Howard County or State? Unless you have a horrible record a lawyer's fees may not be worth paying...I'm a cop in Baltimore...PM me the name of the officer...I have a few connections...As far as good lawyers...There is no one better than Lenny Shapiro in MD...But you are going to pay lots for him...

Like Al said might be cheaper in the end if you just represent yourself. It was for me when I had a list of no nos once. The two tickets that they were actually able to charge me for should've been almost $200 I walked out only owing $107.50

Cop didn't show in my case. Apparently Md allows the cop to go over everything with a State Attorney and still make the court date go on. This state is so damn dumb and lame
