WHY PAY ATTORNEY FEES IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO??

Back in 87', I got ticket for doing 43 in a 30 (speed limit dropped from 45 to 30 and due to lack of signage, I didn't realize it til it was too late)....Went to court, met with prosecuter, and got ticket reduced to "careless acceleration"....still paid the $70.00 fine (all they really care about), but no points were taken off my record....Would an attorney have done much better for me? Maybe, maybe not, and at what price?
