How to Win Your Chico DMV Case

A Butte County DUI arrest results in two cases. One case is with the criminal court and the other is with the California Department of Motor Vehicles. The DMV DUI case determines whether or not you can keep your driver’s license. Unfortunately, it is very easy to lose your license during a Chico DMV hearing, even if it’s your first DUI arrest.

Here are the important steps you need to take to save your California driver’s license.

Hire an experienced Chico DUI attorney. If you are serious about keeping your driving privileges you need a skilled Butte County DUI attorney on your side. A lawyer will do everything in their power to ensure you can keep your driver’s license.

Contact the Chico DMV right away. You need to schedule your DMV DUI hearing right away. After a Chico DUI arrest, you have a very limited time (10 days) to contact the DMV to set up your hearing. If you don’t set up your administrative hearing with the DMV right away, you will lose your license regardless of the outcome of your criminal hearing.

Apply for a hardship license. If things don’t go as planned during your DMV DUI hearing and you do lose your license, you should see if you qualify for a hardship license. A hardship license can allow you to drive to work and take care of other responsibilities. With a hardship license, you can also opt to install an ignition interlock device. An ignition interlock is a device that a Chico DUI offender breathes into that prevents their car from starting if it detects alcohol.

Above all, the most important step is to hire an experienced Butte County DUI attorney. A Chico DUI attorney can get you the best possible results as you undergo this stressful process. Contact a DUI attorney today!
