Indiana Traffic Lawyers
Protect Your License, Your Record, and Your Ability to Drive.
Custom Law represents Indiana drivers facing tickets, points, reckless driving, aggressive driving, and habitual-violator consequences.
Traffic Violations in Indiana
Paying a traffic ticket is generally treated as admitting the violation. A ticket can add points, increase insurance costs, or create larger consequences for a commercial driver or someone with an existing record.
Speeding Points
- Up to 15 mph over: Two points.
- 16 to 25 mph over: Four points.
- More than 25 mph over: Six points.
Defense may challenge the officer’s measurement method, equipment maintenance, visual estimate, signage, or whether the alleged speed was supported by reliable evidence. Indiana Code §9-21-8-41 addresses disobeying traffic signals.
Other Matters We Handle
- Reckless and aggressive driving
- Habitual traffic violator status
- Commercial-license consequences
Reckless and Aggressive Driving Penalties
Under §9-21-8-52, reckless driving may involve dangerously high or low speed, unsafe passing, weaving, or refusing to yield road space.
- Class C misdemeanor for endangering people or property: Up to 60 days and $500.
- Class B misdemeanor involving property damage: Up to 180 days and $1,000.
- Class A misdemeanor involving bodily injury: Up to one year and $5,000.
Aggressive driving under §9-21-8-55 involves at least three listed violations in one episode; intentional harassment or annoyance is Class A.
Points and HTV
Points remain for two years. Fourteen to 18 points may produce 12 months of probation. A driver-improvement course may remove up to four points.
Defending Your Driving Privileges
We review the stop, officer observations, radar or lidar records, driving record, and whether the State can prove knowing or intentional conduct.
Prepared for What Comes Next
What to Expect from Custom Law
Criminal defense requires more than a quick review of the charging paperwork. Our attorneys look at how the investigation started, how evidence was obtained, what the State must prove, and how the case may affect the client outside the courtroom.
Drawing on more than 20 years of legal experience, former-prosecutor insight, and extensive courtroom work, the team develops a tailored approach for negotiations, hearings, or trial while keeping clients informed from start to finish.

Prepared for Court
We organize the facts, analyze the law, and prepare each matter with the possibility of hearings or trial in mind.

From day one they treated my case like it mattered. They fought hard, kept me informed, and got my charges dismissed. I can't recommend this team enough.
