One of the main areas of our criminal practice is representing clients in DMV Administrative Hearings in the South Bay and throughout Southern California. Many DMV Administrative Hearings hinge upon whether the officer had probable cause to stop you in the first place and the experience of the officer who administered the alcohol tests. Another factor critical to successful defense in DMV Hearings are the procedural aspects of keeping the alcohol screening devices or chemical tests in line with established California codes. Our office prides itself on keeping up to date with the most recent legal and technological advances in defending clients against DMV suspensions.

Upon getting arrested for a DUI in California, the police officer is required by law to immediately forward a copy of the completed notice of suspension or revocation form and any driver license taken into their possession, with a sworn report to the DMV. You will be given a temporary license that is valid for 30 days from the time of your DUI arrest.

Please be advised that immediate action is necessary in order to prevent the suspension of your driving privilege. You must contact the DMV within ten days of your arrest and schedule an Administrative Per Se Hearing, otherwise your license will be suspended upon the expiration of the 30 day temporary license.

The DMV Administrative Hearing is a hearing where our offices will have the opportunity to show that a suspension or revocation of your driving privilege is not justified. At this hearing, we will present testimony and/or relevant evidence on your behalf. If the review shows there is no basis for the suspension or revocation, the action will be set aside and your driver=s license will be returned.

Our offices have considerable experience with these types of hearings and have handled hundreds of them in the South Bay and throughout Southern California. Our offices offer a free initial consultation and will be happy to talk with you about your case. Please contact our offices at (310) 543-7708 if you have any questions.
