I run into situations as a license reinstatement lawyer that come up over and over again. One example, is when a client comes in and wants to have a license reinstatement hearing with the Illinois Secretary of State. Everything will be going perfectly at the initial meeting and we are ready to apply for the hearing when the client tells me that they have been arrested for a driving while license revoked, public intoxication, or other traffic infraction within the past six months. It is a rule of the Secretary of State that a person cannot have a hearing if they have a matter that they were arrested for in the past six months.
While I have successfully represented hundreds of clients at license reinstatement hearings, the worst way to get denied is when a client does not tell you that they had a pending traffic ticket. It is crucial to always be honest with your attorney so that they can help prepare you for the questions will be asked at the Secretary of State hearing.
If you're looking to reinstate your drivers license that was revoked because of driving under the influence of alcohol charges, contact John W Callahan if you have any questions about how the process works.
