Protecting Your Driver's License in the Bothell, WA Area

As part of your case, you should request a Department of Licensing hearing in order to avoid an automatic suspension of your driver's license. This hearing determines whether your license will be suspended or revoked as a result of your DUI arrest. At your DOL hearing, you must present a compelling case in front of the court that aims to prove the validity of your charges.

What can you do to protect your driver's license?

  • Hire an experienced lawyer to help you prepare for the hearing so you know exactly what to expect.
  • Request a DOL hearing and the arresting officer's presence.
  • Retest any samples to make sure they are accurate.
  • Scrutinize the validity of your stop and the claims that were used to justify your stop.
  • Review the timeline of events and whether strict procedure was followed.
  • Make sure that your samples are actually yours - check the labels.
  • Attend your hearing and listen carefully to any discrepancies.

I have handled hundreds of DUI cases in my more than 15 years of experience. My seasoned knowledge and experience can make a difference in the outcome of your hearing.
