SMOG CHECK STATIONS: FOREWARNED IS FOREARMED

Here is the background for this release. The most basic issue is that anyone who receives an official communication from the Bureau of Automotive Repair should not ignore it. A proactive defense is necessary, and the services of a defense attorney may be useful and necessary. A violation letter from the Bureau of Automotive Repair, for example, may need to be addressed swiftly. A team of professional auto defense lawyers can fight the allegations and save a SMOG certification. One SMOG accusation letter may not be the last. If a SMOG shop doesn’t fight back, a third violation letter could mean the loss of a business.

A SMOG shop owner may choose to deal with the first accusation letter from the Bureau of Automotive Repair alone, though legal representation may be a better idea. One letter may seem like an easy fix to a SMOG technician. Walking into court and allowing a BAR attorney to dictate the case could be the first strike towards losing a SMOG certification. Each letter could count against a hard-earned license. Allowing a SMOG check defense attorney to push back and ask questions can help.

An auto shop owner or technician may not realize the importance of fighting the first violation letter from the Bureau of Automotive Repair. Each SMOG citation can be a mark against a technician’s professional license. It may be important to find a SMOG check defense attorney to fight each and every citation letter. The demand for reports, records and video documentation can be in the rights of a SMOG technician. If an auto shop doesn’t fight back, the loss of one’s business or livelihood could be the result.

For these reasons, Automotive Defense has announced an update to a popular blog post on the topic.
