I do have questions, though. How does Super Attorney expect to get you off completely on 154mph, as clocked by radar? What guarantee does he give you that he'll be successful? Does he take a drastically reduced rate if he fails? I ask because I suspect that you'll be one of his 10% who are found guilty.
There are not a lot of variables in your case. You can't attempt to place blame on the BMW or the matter of being involved in a speed contest becomes an issue. Terrain doesn't seem to be an issue based on where you were. If the citation itself was filled out correctly, that leaves the calibration of the Officer's radar or laser device. If the Officer produces his latest calibration card, you're sunk at trial.
Is he planning to cut a deal before going to trial? To me, that seems like your best chance. You should find out his whole strategy before forking over the four grand.
