For eligible tickets, if your attorney is unable to obtain a favorable outcome on your ticket, Michael & Associates will refund your legal fee in full for that ticket.
What counts as a favorable outcome
Any of the following resolves your matter favorably and the fee is earned:
- The charge is dismissed.
- The court grants deferred disposition, deferred adjudication, or a compliance dismissal.
- The charge is amended or reduced — for example, to a non-moving violation.
- The disposition keeps the conviction off your public driving record, including where a driving safety course is ordered or approved as part of the resolution.
If the charge is found committed and none of the above applies, you receive a full refund of the legal fee for that ticket.
Eligibility
Your quote page is the authoritative statement of eligibility for your specific ticket. Eligibility is determined per charge at the time of your quote. If your quote covers more than one charge, all of them must be eligible.
Tickets are not eligible when any of the following apply:
- You hold a Commercial Driver's License (CDL)
- The citation involves an accident
- The charge is a criminal offense or a parking violation
- The charge is a serious speeding offense — 25 mph or more over the posted limit, or 15 mph or more over in a school zone
- The charge involves driving with an invalid, suspended, or unlicensed status, or driving without insurance
- The charge is one that, in the firm's assessment, cannot be guaranteed. Certain equipment, registration, inspection, and documentation offenses fall into this category.
Because eligibility depends on the specific charge written on your citation, this list describes categories rather than every individual offense. The eligibility shown on your quote page controls.
Conditions
- You must provide accurate ticket information and respond to reasonable requests from your legal team.
- The guarantee is void if your ticket is already in warrant status, past its appearance date at time of booking, or if you miss a required court appearance.
- The refund covers your legal fee only — not court fines or costs assessed by the court.
- The guarantee applies only where the firm is permitted to offer it under the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct and the rules of the court handling your matter. Where a refund cannot lawfully be offered, we will tell you before you book.
- Michael & Associates determines which attorney handles your matter and may reassign, substitute, or associate additional counsel at any time. This does not affect your fee or this guarantee. See our Legal Disclosures.
