License Restoration - Getting Your Driver's License Back

The state of Michigan views driving as a privilege. If you have been arrested for DWI/DUI/OWI or refused to take a breath, blood, or urine test, you may lose your driver's license for a significant period of time. With only 14 days to request an administrative hearing after a chemical test refusal, you want to take swift action.

The Cadillac Law Office of Mark R. Mitchell can handle all your driver's license restoration concerns. Whether you have a suspended license after a breath test refusal or a revoked license after multiple DUIs/DWIs, the firm will handle all Secretary of State hearings, in addition to your criminal defense.

Proper planning and preparation should begin immediately after your drunk driving or related offense, such as:

  • Breathalyzer or Chemical Test refusal: The refusal to take a Breathalyzer or Chemical test will lead to a license revocation. However, you can file a hardship appeal to have your driving privileges reinstated immediately.
  • Moving violations: If your license is revoked for a moving violation, such as driving with a suspended license, your record may state that you have to wait a certain amount of time before filing your appeal. An experienced attorney can help you reduce or bypass this waiting period completely, so you can schedule your hearing as soon as possible.
  • Multiple DUI, DWI and OUI: You will have to wait the full length of time before your hearing after multiple violations involving alcohol or a controlled substance. At the hearing you will have to demonstrate that you have taken part in counseling and treatment, as well as take overall steps to lower the risks of a repeat offense.

Losing your driving privileges can negatively impact your ability to seek and maintain employment, continue school, handle family matters, and handle other personal matters, so start considering your defense options now.

As soon as you become aware of the fact that you may be losing your license, contact a license restoration lawyer from the Cadillac Law Office of Mark R. Mitchell. Ready to discuss the steps necessary to having your license reinstated, the firm can help you make informed decisions that are right for you and your loved ones.
