Types of Safety Hearings
You may be required to appear at a safety hearing for many different reasons.
These could include:
- Fatal accidents: If you were a driver involved in a fatal accident, even if you were not charged with a traffic or criminal violation, you will have to attend a hearing. The judge has the discretion to suspend or revoke your license either temporarily or indefinitely based on the circumstances of your case.
- Suspicion of fraud: If you write a bad check to the DMV/MVC, make false statements on an application, or the DMV determines through facial recognition software that you applied for a license under a different name, it can trigger the suspicion of fraud. You may be required to attend a hearing to determine if your driving privileges should be suspended or revoked, or if criminal charges should be brought against you.
- Refusing to submit to a breath test: If you are pulled over for drunk driving and refuse to submit to a breath test, you face automatic license suspension and will be required to attend a safety hearing. It is an opportunity to determine whether police conducted themselves properly to try to administer the test.
- Three serious traffic violations in 25 years: In New York, if you are convicted of three or more serious traffic violations in 25 consecutive years, your license can be suspended for five years. You are entitled to a hearing within 60 days of your denial letter. If you are unsuccessful at your hearing, we can help you attempt to reopen a prior case and vacate a conviction.

"The best decision I made."
I highly recommend Martin Kron & Associates. I had a great experience. A good friend recommended me to Marty last year when I received a speeding ticket in NYC. Marty knows the process extremely well, listened & answered all of my questions, and ultimately got my ticket dismissed. In addition, during the past 20 months, when I had questions regarding the adjournments and processes, all of the people in his office were extremely responsive, professional and great at answering all of my questions. Before getting the referral to Marty, I called a few other traffic law firms that I found online to possibly handle the ticket. They all sounded like ticket factories with no real service and no real people behind you. Having Marty or one of his attorneys representing you in NYC traffic court was the best decision I made and is 100% the right answer. I got a great result and felt that I had the A-team on my side. If you get a traffic ticket in NYC, I would call Martin Kron...

"He kept in touch to make sure my issue was completely resolved."Martin Kron was very patient, fair, and upfront during my interactions with him. I am currently out of the NY/NJ area, after a recent move. But needed someone to represent me for an issue with the DMV in NYS. He was realistic with timelines and was able to ultimately get my issue resolved before it affected my current state license. Can't thank him enough. After he resolved the issue in NYS, he kept in touch to make sure my issue was completely resolved in my new home state.Orlene

"Most impressed by their availability to respond to me."I'm glad I choose this lawyer. His professionalism and his ability to follow things up impressed me. There was always someone in the office to respond to my phone calls. Finally, they had my file up to date. I won my case, but beyond everything, I was most impressed by their availability to respond to me. Thanks!Vitalis
