So has anyone ever used them before? I did a quick search about them and they got a couple of good reviews but it looks like it was from a bike forum and also those posters have very little posts.

Anyone have any paralegal services for traffic tickets in Scarborough that they would recommend?

Not sure about Redline... I've used Xpolice though... They handled pretty much everything. All I did was send them the ticket, a few emails here and there, and that's it.. A year and a half later, I got news from them that the charges were dropped.

They have a small office close to Birchmount and Eglinton but you don't have to come in person. My correspondence with them were all through emails (which is what I preferred).

I might still have the guy's email if you're interested.

Whatever you do, don't retain counsel and plead to a lesser fine. Sitting in court a few weeks ago, I couldn't believe the number of paralegals that were pleading to a lesser fine on behalf of their clients. What a waste of hundreds of dollars on something you can do yourself (whether or not you should plead guilty is a different matter altogether).

Yeap, paralegals will **** you over some times.

A friend of mine got an STi and naturally wanted to race my other buddies RSX-s, but they decided to do it on bathurst at like 7PM like idiots. Both got street racing tickets, cars impounded, the whole ordeal.

Anyway, the guy with the STi hit 120 in a 60, the guy with the RSX hit like 80 so he wasn't even speeding that bad. Both took the charges to court. STi guy hired (not sure how much $ he paid though) a lawyer, while the RSX-s guy paid 2k for a paralegal - mistake #2 lol.
STi guy gets off.
RSX-s paralegal, despite having told him she would 100% get him off and he had nothing to worry about, walks into the court and accepts the deal. He got 7(?) points and reckless driving.

Point of the matter is.. spend a couple more bucks and get a real lawyer if it's a serious ticket.. otherwise just go with a paralegal.
