Clarkstown traffic court FAQ
Where is the New City traffic court?
Clarkstown Town Court is at 20 Maple Avenue, New City, NY 10956. Not sure of your court date? Send us your ticket and we’ll check it for you.
My ticket is from Nanuet, Congers or West Nyack. Is that Clarkstown Town Court?
Yes. Those hamlets are part of the Town of Clarkstown, and so are Bardonia, Central Nyack, New City, Rockland Lake and Valley Cottage. Tickets written inside the villages of Nyack or Spring Valley go to those village courts instead.
Should I just pay my Clarkstown ticket online?
No, not before you talk to us. Paying is a guilty plea: the points, the state surcharge and any insurance increase all follow. We fight to get the charge reduced or dismissed instead.
Do I have to go to Clarkstown Town Court myself?
In most cases, you don’t need to come to court. If the court needs you there, we tell you exactly when, and we stand right next to you.
What happens if I miss my Clarkstown court date?
Missing the court date can lead to a license suspension and extra fees. Send us the ticket right away.

Yes. Clarkstown Town Court hears misdemeanor traffic cases, and our lawyers handle them, including aggravated unlicensed operation (AUO) and reckless driving. A felony charge can start here and then move to Rockland County Court.
