The document you receive from the police at the time of your arrest will indicate that you must request this hearing within 10 calendar days, NOT 10 BUSINESS DAYS. This will keep you driving for at least 2-3 months until the DMV hearing has been decided. Our attorneys will help you assert your rights and correctly follow procedures to ensure that you are presenting the most compelling defense.

License Suspension
Losing your driving privileges could result in job loss and an inability to provide for your family. When you are worried about license suspension, our experienced legal team can assert your rights and work to protect your driving privileges. We will request a DMV hearing, present a compelling case on your behalf, and assert your need to retain your driving privileges. We will also request a stay on the suspension so that you can drive at least until your hearing has been decided.
Your DMV Hearing
Your DMV hearing will focus on technical issues. Was there probable cause for the car stop and arrest? Were you above the limit (.08)? Do you have any medical conditions that could have affected your BAC? Was the evidence properly handled? Our attorneys will examine the facts of your case and challenge the evidence presented against you, including blood tests, breathalyzers and field sobriety tests. We have experience with the technicalities of DUI cases and will seek to limit penalties and suspensions associated with your DUI. We can often back date suspensions to reduce actual suspension time.
