Driver's License Restoration

San Diego Defense Attorneys

Losing your driver's licenses can have a terrible impact on your life. Some people can lose their jobs if they can't drive. The lawyers of San Diego Criminal Defense work hard to help people throughout San Diego County get their licenses back. Contact us for a free confidential consultation.

License Loss after a DUI / DWI Charge

In California, the most common reason for a license suspension or revocation is a drunk driving (DUI) charge. Even before a conviction, a driver will suffer a period of suspension for at least 30 days, and possibly more.

Only an understanding of the law and administrative procedure can adequately defend you from the DMV. Our attorneys regularly represent drivers at the DMV, using our decades of experience to challenge suspensions and revocations and make arrangements for driver's license restoration.

Other Reasons for License Suspension or Revocation

We also help people who have had their licenses taken away for medical reasons. If you had an episode in which you passed out, a doctor is required to report you to the DMV, even if you were not driving at the time. Our lawyers can convince the DMV that one fainting spell should not cause a suspension or revocation.

In addition, people often see their licenses revoked if someone believes they are "too old" to drive well. People write down a license plate number and report to the DMV, and the DMV takes the opportunity to revoke a license. Few lawyers help with this kind of driver's license restoration, but we are happy to help those whose licenses have been revoked, under any circumstances.

A Client Testimonial

Hi Tim,
I just want to thank you for your help. I truly appreciate what you’ve done for Jenny. I know that it was a great imposition for you to drive up to Murrieta. You had Jenny’s best interests at heart the entire time you represented her; and you always said the right things to keep me from loosing my mind.

When you first met her, I know that Jenny looked and acted like an addict. You helped us get her into rehab. You kept her out of jail.

I wish you could see the transformation. She is happy, healthy, is in a solid relationship with her boyfriend Sean, going to school, and actually doing homework! For the first time in many years she acting like a responsible human being. You brought back my daughter, and for this I am forever in your debt.

Sincerely,
Ella W.
