OATH Hearings Former Traffic Court Judge Fighting For You

New York OATH Violation Attorney

What is an OATH Violation?

Quality of life violations can span a vast range of areas that many people don’t think about. You could get a ticket for making too much noise, failing to dispose of your garbage properly, and having an expired business permit. The Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings (OATH) handles municipal code violations like these. With this in mind, you can easily get ticketed for a violation you didn’t realize you committed.

OATH conducts hearings for summonses issued by an extensive list of New York enforcement agencies. You can entrust our New York OATH lawyer to handle your case if your violation was issued by the New York Police Department (NYPD) or NYC Department of Environmental Protection. As such, we encourage you to take your summons seriously and work with our knowledgeable, reputable legal team to help get your case dismissed. With over 40 years of experience, we’ve helped countless clients in your position move forward and avoid the penalties of their OATH summonses. Allow us to fight for the same outcome on your behalf.

Types of OATH Violations

If it’s your first time receiving an OATH ticket, you may be unsure of what to expect. Luckily, you don’t have to go at it alone. We have the experience, training, and knowledge required to help resolve your situation as efficiently as possible, and our track record proves it. While OATH summonses are issued by a variety of NYC enforcement agencies, our New York OATH attorney is experienced and skilled in defending violations such as:

  • Traffic accidents involving pedestrians: If a pedestrian sues you for a violation such as failing to yield, you may be summonsed to OATH, get entangled in a messy lawsuit, and suffer increased insurance premiums.

How to Resolve OATH Violations

If you were summonsed for the violations above or any other quality of life violation, you may be wondering what your next steps are. Thus, you should know that resolving OATH violations can be completed in one of three ways:

  • Correct the conditions cited on the violation and certify correction with the Department
  • Admit guilt or attend a hearing at OATH to contest the violation
  • Pay any applicable penalties

Should you attend a hearing at OATH to dispute your ticket, it will benefit you to understand how OATH proceedings work. As such, we encourage you to examine a brief overview below:

  • Appear at the OATH court that you were summonsed to
  • Check-in at the reception desk and complete a Notice of Appearance form
  • At your hearing, you and your legal counsel will meet with a hearing officer, who will decide the outcome of your case
  • You and your counsel will present evidence to prove your innocence, such as reports, photographs, receipts, and witness statements
  • Witnesses, which typically include the officer who issued your summons, may appear in court to testify against you
  • Once the hearing officer examines the evidence and hears both sides, they will render a decision either on the same day or within 40 days of the hearing

    "Moving violation dismissed."
    Mr. Kron he made no guarantees and was honest with regards to the whole matter and never gave me a false sense of security as to what the final turn out would be.

    "He went above and beyond."
    He went above and beyond. Martin's combination of experience, honesty, and positive demeanor helped me.

    "BEST DEAL IN NYC!!!"
    Had tons of old traffic tickets in NYC. Mr. Kron got them reopened and thrown out. I got emails all the time telling what was going on but I never had to appear.
    Jack
    "I would refer him to anyone, anytime for anything."
    I had 3 cell phone violations within 18 months, which by law subjects me to license suspension. Mr. Kron and I deferred our case 4 times which is the maximum. When we finally decided to plead me guilty, Mr. Kron did everything within his power to reason with the judge for leniency-and he succeeded!! I was found guilty, have to pay a fine, but will be able to keep on driving which is extremely important for me to maintain my lifestyle. Most importantly, during this process, I was a nervous wreck. Mr. Kron was immediate in his responses to my inquiries----almost replying to my texts before I hit send!! I cannot thank this man enough... I would refer him to anyone, anytime for anything. He did an absolutely wonderful job for me. One final thought. You know how you read about or see about everything else that works for other people but never works for you? This is a case where this guy was an angel and delivered me the best possible outcome. I am a very lucky man today because of Mr. Kron.

    "Martin was honest, clear and available."
    This was my first time hiring an attorney for a ticket. I had a ticket for speeding in a school zone and was in jeopardy of having my license suspended. Martin was honest, clear and available. He just communicated with me and shared I was found not guilty!!! So grateful and thankful for Martin and his team!
    Satisfied Client
    "Martin took care of two tickets that were worth 8 points on my license!"
    Martin and his team were so professional, attentive, and responsive. I recommend Martin 100%!! Thank you so much. Very very much appreciated.

    "Martin A. Kron got me off with a warning."
    In September 2015 I was faced with a very serious New York City traffic violation. I was very upset with the predicament I had gotten myself into & reached out to Martin A. Kron for legal counsel. Subsequent to explaining what happened Martin agreed to handle my case & assured me I was in good hands - at this point I formally retained Martin. I sweated out a possible suspended license - I was humiliated, embarrassed & humbled by the sheer recklessness of my actions. I swore to myself that if I got off with just a warning I would never ever disobey the traffic laws again. Via his expert legal acumen & experience, Martin A. Kron got me off with a warning. I strongly recommend The Law Offices of Martin A. Kron to anyone facing a traffic violation. In summary, do not disobey the traffic laws - the consequences are just not worth it.

    "Hire him with confidence."
    I owe Marty a debt of gratitude for the way in which he counseled me on traffic tickets and what to do in court. I would give Marty my highest recommendation. He REALLY knows his stuff. Do hire him with confidence. While I hope I never need him again I rest a little easier knowing that I have him by my side. Thanks, Marty.
