It will most likely cost more than the fine, but if your insurance rates increase as a result, and if you drive for a living, it may be worthwhile in the long run to hire an attorney. I would guess that a retainer would not be less than $1000. You should talk with the attorney and make sure that any money paid as part of the retainer that is not used for fees and costs (i.e., your attorney's hourly rate for any time he/she works for you, plus any filing fees, copying fees, etc.) is reimbursed to you. Then carefully watch the time you spend talking to your attorney, as they log every phone call and usually bill in ten or fifteen minute increments - so don't call three times a day for two minutes each time, since you'll be billed for 30-45 minutes instead of six.
Since you drive for a living, it's probably worthwhile to hire an attorney. You can contact the New York State Bar Association to get a referral. Their website is www.nysba.org
