Alive at 25 and Driver Improvement Courses

by Seth Azria on 3/21/2020

Alive at 25® Courses 

Some prosecutors, when offering a reduction to a driver under 25 years of age, will make the deal contingent on the driver taking the alive at 25 course. These courses are designed for younger drivers, take 4 hours to complete, are given in a classroom setting, and cost $60. Check out Alive at 25 Courses.

Currently, the classes are scheduled in Onondaga, Montgomery, and Rensselaer counties.  

New York Point Insurance Reduction Program 

The courses associated with this program are the usual DMV approved "defensive driving classes." These classes are online, or in classroom, take a little over 5 hours, and cost about $30-40. 

Once complete, New York drivers get 10% off on their insurance premiums and their point total is effectively reduced by 4. Note that the points do not go away, they are ignored for suspension purposes. Learn how it works and see a class list.

Yelp Review

As a a 60 year old physician I am semi-retired and my wife and I travel the country to do work in my specialty at places that are shorthanded. Since I only work about 1/3 of the year we have time to drive to these places. Recently I was stopped on a highway in NY. I haven't had a speeding ticket since I was in my twenties. The officer said I was doing 81 in a 65 MPH zone (my reading 76 while trying to pass a slow moving vehicle with a line of cars behind me trying to get by me as well). I read the reviews and chose Attorney Azria.

The office staff was pleasant and efficient, and put me right through to Attorney Azria. He explained the process with perfect clarity and went to work. Although he explained the process could take 4-6 weeks he resolved the issue in 10 days, reducing the violation to a non-moving violation with a small fee and no points. His price was more than fair.

I've been lucky enough as a physician to have never been sued but doctors by nature do not have an affinity for lawyers. However, if you find yourself in need of one, it is hard to imagine someone better at their job than Attorney Azria. Thank you sir. If I could give you 6 stars out of 5 I would.

I highly recommend them, they are the best.

I was very satisfied having them represent me on a speeding ticket. The process was seamless and very convenient. I highly recommend them and will not consider anyone else to represent me if I should ever land in any sticky situations again. They fight tirelessly for you and make it easy for you. I'm from out of state so I didn't have to travel or lift a finger to get it taken care of. They are great.

I’d like to thank you very much. I was very worried about my traffic ticket because I am a cdl truck driver. Any ticket is really dangerous for me because I shouldn't have any points. But Mr. Azria solved all these issues. I am very happy to get this perfect result. 0 points! My best wishes to you. Thanks again.
