Protecting Bay Area Drivers Facing License Suspension
If you need advice about resolving any threat to your California driver's license — suspension for drunk driving, revocation of a commercial driver's license, or too many moving violations within a year — contact an experienced traffic violations attorney at the Walnut Creek law firm of O'Malley & McKenna. We can analyze your driving record, evaluate your current status, and try to find ways to resolve your problem.
While our lawyers can defend you on an individual ticket, especially in cases where another conviction will result in an automatic suspension of your license, we represent most of our driver's license clients in administrative hearings before the DMV after notice of suspension has been received. Our goal is to set aside the license suspension in such cases as the following:
- DUI arrests or convictions
- Implied consent violations
- Too many tickets for speeding, tailgating or other moving violations within a 12-month period
- DMV suspension due to health problems
- Problems involving a commercial driver's license
- Underage driver's license suspension for drinking, curfew violations or other juvenile status offenses
- DMV suspension or revocation hearings involving such violations as driving without insurance, driving on a suspended license, or aggravated DUI charges
In cases involving drunk driving, it is essential to schedule a hearing with the DMV within ten days of your arrest in order to protect your right to a restricted license while your DUI case is pending. Otherwise, you will lose your right to drive even if you later defeat the drunk driving charges.
Our law firm's experience with the protection of driving privileges at the administrative hearing level can represent a powerful advantage for anyone facing the prospect of a license suspension.
