Winning Michigan Driver License Restoration Attorneys

We understand how the inability to drive can have a dramatic, negative effect on family, income, medical treatment, and personal obligations. The loss of an operator’s license can often result in a perpetual circle of hardship that seems inescapable. The hardship of being unable to drive legally is significant. When you need to get your license back, the Michigan driver’s license appeal and restoration attorneys with LEWIS & DICKSTEIN, P.L.L.C. will do whatever is necessary to help you, and we are not afraid to win! Most importantly, we have an unparalleled track record of winning driver’s license appeals with Driver Assessment, the Driver’s License Appeal Division (DLAD), and Circuit Court.

We have handled thousands of cases in Michigan with drivers license implications including, but not limited to:

A Proven, Reliable, Winning System

If you decide to work with LEWIS & DICKSTEIN, P.L.L.C., we have a winning system that will be employed on your behalf. Our proven system has been designed, tailored, and perfected over decades to maximize our client’s chances of attaining the best possible outcome. Our track record of successful driver license representation is so well known that other lawyers frequently hire us to teach them how to handle these cases and consult with ongoing license restoration cases. The most common form of license restoration case is the Driver’s License Appeal Division (DLAD) appeal based upon repeated drinking and driving convictions like OWI, DUI, and DWI. Generally, the Michigan Department of State will revoke the driving privileges of someone convicted of two drinking and driving cases (or driving under the influence of controlled substance cases) within 7 years or three within 10 years. DLAD hearings consist of an appeal hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (hearing officer).

The goal at the DLAD is to win; however, if a hearing officer denies a license restoration appeal, we can appeal the hearing officer’s ruling to a circuit court. We are often hired by people who lost their appeal with other, less experienced lawyers and need new and effective representation for a circuit court appeal. A recent change in the law gives an appealing party more options in the circuit court. The petitioner can now ask the circuit judge to accept new evidence or new testimony during the appeal process. The ability to admit new evidence is essential when the record and evidence introduced at the earlier DLAD hearing was insufficient. The key is a lawyer who knows what evidence is most persuasive and how to create the most influential record.

Losing a Michigan Driver’s License Appeal is Not an Option!

Suppose you are considering appealing a Michigan driver’s license revocation to the DLAD or Circuit Court. In that case, it is critical to present the best, most persuasive, and compelling case to the hearing officer. Winning takes more than just intensive preparation; it takes a tried and true system designed for winning. If your appeal is denied, you will have to wait a minimum of one additional year before you can attempt to restore your driving privileges another time at the Michigan Department of State. Every day, we handle appeals for clients who lost because they represented themselves or an ineffective lawyer represented them. If losing is not an option, you need a winning strategy. Investing in a successful and effective DLAD lawyer is critical. No outcome is guaranteed, but we can give you the best chance to win.

We Understand the System – We Know How To Win

A criminal defense attorney must understand the system, know how to win, and do whatever is necessary to maximize his client’s chances of success. Unfortunately, most lawyers who handle DLAD cases lose and give potential clients a false sense of security relative to their qualifications to handle these matters. The team of attorneys with LEWIS & DICKSTEIN, P.L.L.C. has decades of experience successfully handling appeals and achieving license restoration for clients. We have a proven system developed to give the client the best chance of winning.

The client must also be part of the process. A client determined to win the restoration of their driver’s license will understand that preparation, planning, and cooperation are necessary to a successful appeal. We will help the client through the process, assist the client in getting the necessary information, and make sure the client is exceptionally prepared and can handle any question thrown at them by the hearing officer or judge.
