San Diego DMV Hearing Attorney

Southern California DUI Lawyer

When you are arrested for DUI in California, the arresting officer will take away your license and hand you a pink slip of paper (an “order of suspension”) and a 30-day temporary license to use while your DUI case and trial are in progress. What you may not know is that you have 10 days after your arrest to contact the California DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles) to schedule a hearing regarding the suspension of your license. If you fail to schedule this hearing, your license will automatically be suspended on the 30th day after your arrest.

Your DUI attorney can schedule and represent you at your DMV hearing, helping to increase your chances of getting your license back. At your DMV hearing, you have the opportunity to present information and evidence to try to reverse your license suspension. It is important to note, however, that this will not affect the outcome of your actual DUI trial, if you have one. You may still be found guilty in court even if you have won your DMV hearing.
