Suspended & Revoked Driver's License

You need it to get to work, to shop and to live. Without your driver's license, your way of life will be severely altered. If your driver's license is at risk of being suspended or revoked, you need an experienced criminal defense attorney on your side.

When you bring your case to Warren J. Breslin Law Offices, you will receive skilled criminal defense representation. Warren J. Breslin, a former police officer and prosecutor, has received an AV* Preeminent Peer Review Rating from Martindale-Hubbell and was enrolled in the Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers.

There are a number of seemingly benign reasons your license could be suspended, such as neglecting a vehicle emissions test, a DUI arrest or failing to pay fines or fees on time. Many people don't even realize their license has been suspended because a notice was sent to a prior address and the suspension notice cannot be forwarded.

Some offenses that cause license suspensions include:

• Passing a stopped school bus that is loading or unloading passengers
• Driving around a railroad signal
• Speeding in a school zone
• Possessing or consuming alcohol by a minor

Even a non-conviction disposition of "supervision" for a violation of the Liquor Control Act, not even involving a motor vehicle, will cause a minor's driver's license to be suspended.

Unlike a suspension, there is no set reinstatement date for a revocation. Your license could be revoked for a number of reasons, such as:

• DUI conviction
• Leaving the scene of an accident
• Eluding police
• Felonies involving motor vehicles

If your license has been suspended or revoked, Warren J. Breslin will work diligently to put you in a position to get it back. Restricted work, school and medical permits can be available during suspension or revocation periods.

Driving with a suspended license is a serious crime, let attorney Breslin help you avoid losing your license. He will work to get you a restricted license or to reinstate your license.

Being without a driver's license due to suspension or revocation will have a profound effect on your insurance rates, with premiums remaining high long after you get your license back.
