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

"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.Rand

"Excellent Service!"Once I called Mr. Kron's office, all of my issues were resolved. He took the time to review my case and recommend the best solutions for me; even from a financial perspective. I will recommend him to ANYONE who requests legal aid in his coverage area and will be calling him again if I find myself in another bind.Kevin

"If you need an Ace in the hole, he's your man!"Mr. Kron was on top of my case like an eagle in the treetops and kept me informed the entire time of every change as well as every possible outcome. His attention to detail, professionalism, and demeanor is UNMATCHED.Spiro

"We were up first and out first."Marty met me 15 minutes before court was due to start exactly as we agreed. He spoke to the prosecutor and as indicated in the title, cut the points on my two tickets from 8 to 2, reduced my fines by a third, and we were out of court in 45 minutes. Had they started on time it would have been only 30 minutes instead of the hours it might have been with all the people that showed up. We were up first and out first. I bet he was there quite a bit earlier than I was to accomplish this feat.Jeff

"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.Christine

"So personable and nice."When I called the Firm I was very hesitant in even hiring an attorney but after speaking with the attorney I felt very comfortable in my decision in hiring an attorney. I had a reckless driving summons in NY and the attorney Lindsay Kron met me at court. She was so personable and nice. She was able to have my summons reduced to a no point no criminal violation with a minimal fine. This Firm is amazing and did a great job. I would definitely recommend them in the future.Rachel
