DON’T WAIT, YOU HAVE A LIMITED TIME TO REQUEST AN ADMINISTRATIVE LICENSE HEARING

If your blood alcohol content is over .08 percent or you refuse to take a breath or blood test, police may charge you with a DUI or DUI Less Safe. At the time of your arrest, your driver’s license will be taken and you will be issued a temporary 30-day driving permit. You have 10 days to request an administrative license hearing to get your license back.

At Jarrett Maillet J.D., P.C., our Savannah criminal defense attorneys do everything in our power to protect our clients’ driver’s licenses. We handle every stage of the administrative process from the initial request for an Administrative License Hearing to representation during the hearing. We also file applications for temporary work permits and handle license reinstatement procedures.

Even if you win your administrative hearing and regain your driver’s license, a conviction may cause license suspension as part of your punishment.

Administrative License Hearings are similar to trials. During the hearing, the police officer who arrested you will testify against you and evidence of your intoxication will be submitted. It is important to have an experienced lawyer protecting your interests.

At Jarrett Maillet J.D., P.C., our Savannah administrative license hearing attorneys cross-examine police officers, question evidence and build strong arguments that our clients were not intoxicated.
