Burbank DMV Hearing Lawyers Strive to Help You Keep Your License
Many people charged with a first or second DUI/DWI offense in Southern California find that a DUI license suspension is a harsh penalty. In fact, many people believe this is tougher than any sentence they may get for a plea arrangement or guilty verdict in court.
The driver's license suspension hearing with an administrative judge at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is a separate legal matter from the criminal defense case. Under California law, a driver automatically loses his or her license after registering a blood-alcohol level of .08 or above on a Breathalyzer test or if they refuse the test. Act quickly to consult a skilled Pasadena DUI license suspension lawyer before you lose your license.

Although the DMV hearing and the criminal charges are technically two separate issues, the DUI/DWI defense attorneys at Hutton & Wilson understand that they are closely linked. The administrative hearing is our first opportunity to challenge the evidence the police have gathered against you.
By finding significant flaws in the police procedure or the probable cause for making the drunk driving arrest, the evidence builds in your favor for the criminal case. In many cases, the arresting officer doesn't show up to testify and the administrative case for the driver's license suspension is dismissed, pending the criminal sentencing. The criminal defense attorneys at our firm offer more than five decades of experience in DUI defense and in administrative DMV hearings. We know the rights steps to take in protecting your rights.
