Yes, a criminal defense attorney can definitely help with a driver’s license revocation hearing—especially if the revocation is related to a criminal charge like DUI, reckless driving, or leaving the scene of an accident.
Here’s how they can help:
- Review the Case: They can go over the evidence (like police reports, breathalyzer results, etc.) and identify weaknesses or errors.
- Represent You at the Hearing: The hearing can be with the DMV or a similar agency, and an attorney can argue on your behalf, present evidence, and question witnesses.
- Negotiate Alternatives: Depending on the circumstances, they may be able to help you get a restricted or hardship license, allowing you to drive for work or medical needs.
- Coordinate with Criminal Charges: If you’re also facing related criminal charges, having one attorney handling both can help ensure a consistent strategy.
