What Can I Do About A Suspended License?

Having a driving license is a privilege, not a right. It is important to remember this so we don’t abuse the benefits of having a valid one. There are times when the state can revoke your license, meaning you cannot legally drive. If you believe this has been done on unfounded grounds, our team at Flowers Law Group is here to help. Our attorneys will let you know what can be done about a suspended license, so you can understand what to expect.

When Can A License Be Suspended

Before discussing what to do about a suspended license, our attorneys first want our potential clients to understand the instances where a license can be suspended in the first place. By calling these out, we hope that you can avoid being put in this scenario. Doing so negates the need to schedule a consultation with our team, saving you both time and money. Some of the most common causes of this can include the below:

  • Too many moving violations.
  • Failing to pay off traffic tickets.
  • Being convicted of a DUI.
  • Serious driving-related convictions, such as exceeding the speed limit by a substantial amount.

Restricted Or Hardship Licenses

In some cases, when your license gets suspended, you may be able to obtain a restricted or hardship license. Be sure to discuss with our team if this can be a viable option for you. In essence, these types of licenses can be acquired and allow you to drive to and from specific locations while your full license remains suspended. For patients who lost their license due to a DUI, an ignition interlock device may need installation before receiving a hardship license.  

Working With Flowers Law Group 

As a firm well versed in criminal defense law, our team understands that sometimes the system fails. Just because the court has ruled that your license needs to be decided, it does not objectively mean that it was the just thing to do. For clients who fall into this category, our team is here to help. Our attorneys at Flowers Law Group will collect evidence that builds a fundamentally sound case for appealing this decision. To learn about what will go into this, be sure to contact us to schedule a consultation today.
