Avoid License Suspension

Avoid a Driver's License Suspension

Representing You at Maryland Administrative Hearings

If you were charged with DUI in Maryland, you have only 30 days from the time of your arrest to request an administrative hearing to challenge a driver's license suspension. If you or your attorney doesn't request this hearing your license will be suspended.

If you have been ticketed for traffic violations that will add 8 points or more to your driving record, you will receive a letter from the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration's (MVA) telling you that your license will be suspended for unless you request a "points hearing" within the next 15 days.

Regardless of whether you are facing license suspension for a drunk driving charge or traffic violation — you have a limited amount of time to try to save your driver's license.
