DUI Administrative Hearings

While driving is considered a privilege, not a right, in the State of Florida, the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) gives drivers accused of DUI an opportunity to save their licenses.  As a Miami DUI attorney, I handle numerous DUI administrative hearings.  Since time is a factor - 10 days - it's important to contact a Miami DUI attorney as soon as you can.  That way, I can not only get you an extension of your 10-day temporary driver's license; I can set a hearing where I will subpoena the officer, or officers who arrested you.  They must now come before a hearing officer at the DHSMV office and explain why they arrested you.  If the hearing officer finds no probable cause, you will retain your driving privilege.

While driving may be considered a privilege, it sure feels more like a neccessity.  Imagine not being able to drive to work or to school.  How would you go about your life?  Second to securing your freedom, saving your driver's license is one of the most important goals of a Miami DUI attorney.  If you, a friend, or a family member have been arrested for DUI, call me immediately so that we can take the appropriate steps to help preserve your driving privilege.
