Hollywood DMV Hearing Lawyers
DUI Defense Attorneys in Hollywood, California
Some drivers charged with DUI (driving under the influence) may disregard the "DMV Hearing Request Form", which unfortunately is a common and critical mistake. When a person does not schedule a DMV Hearing within 10 days following his or her DUI arrest the California Department of Motor Vehicles can automatically suspend their driver's license for a minimum of 90 days. The suspension would remain in effect even if they are found to be not guilty during the criminal court process.
At Gutierrez, Curtis & Gutierrez we provide superior representation at DMV Hearings to clients facing driving under the influence charges throughout Hollywood, California. We have over 60 years of legal experience and understand what must be presented in the effort to maintain our clients' driving privileges. We can challenge any evidence presented during the DMV Hearing and present evidence from our own investigation as we work to clear our clients' names.
DMV Hearings and DUI
During the DMV Hearing, representatives form the Department of Motor Vehicles will look to answer the following:
- Did law enforcement have significant reason to believe that a person was under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs while driving a motor vehicle?
- Did a person have a BAC (blood alcohol concentration) at or above 0.08%?
- Was a person lawfully placed under arrest?
If all of the above questions are answered "yes", then a person will most likely have his or her driver's license suspended. However, with an attorney present any of these topics can be disputed, leading the way to an opportunity to avoid a driver's license suspension altogether.
In many instances, there can be serious problems that may exist with field sobriety tests, breathalyzers and BAC testing that can be legally disputed. Also, there may be several legal issues surrounding an arrest that a skilled Hollywood DUI lawyer can challenge.
