Driver's License Suspension and DUI in San Diego
San Diego DUI Lawyer
Living in the San Diego area, nothing is more inconvenient than losing your right to drive. Losing your driver’s license will put you in the stressful situation of having to figure out how you will get to work, school, and around town without the convenience of your own car. Unfortunately, if you are arrested for DUI, it is almost certain that your driver’s license will be suspended if you do not take immediate action. By working with a San Diego DUI attorney at the Law Offices of Virginia Landry, you can drastically reduce the amount of time your driver’s license is suspended. However, the attorneys at the office are not satisfied with merely reducing the amount of time the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) suspends your license. The firm is committed to protecting your driving privileges and getting your driver’s license reinstated as quickly as possible. The attorneys know how important and necessary your driver’s license is to your daily routine, and that’s why they are devoted to aggressively fighting to preserve your driving privileges at all costs!
When you are pulled over and arrested for DUI, the police officer will confiscate your driver’s license and issue a temporary driving permit that is only good for only 30 days. You then have a mere 10 DAYS from the date you were arrested to schedule an administrative hearing with the DMV. The
DMV hearing gives you the opportunity to challenge the suspension of your driver’s license. It is extremely important that you schedule this hearing within 10 days or your driver’s license will be automatically suspended for up to four months. If you are successful at the hearing your driving privileges will be restored. Should your driver’s license remain suspended after the hearing, your lawyer can help you obtain a hardship license that permits you to drive to work, school, or other locations approved by the court.
Challenging License Suspension with a San Diego Attorney
You may not think it, but losing your driver’s life will inconvenience your life in more ways than you can image. Do not put yourself or your driver’s license at risk. An attorney at the firm can aggressively challenge your driver’s license suspension both at your DMV hearing and in criminal court. The experienced lawyers at the office have extensive experience helping San Diego residents win back their driving privileges. You can feel secure knowing that a highly skilled attorney at the firm will develop a compelling defense, question the actions of the arresting officer, and relentlessly challenge any evidence brought against you (such as field sobriety test results or the outcome of a
blood or breath test.)
