What Can I Do if My Driver's License Was Suspended After a DWI Conviction?

In the state of Texas, one of the mandatory penalties handed down after a DWI conviction is the suspension of the convicted party's driver's license. Even an out-of-state conviction will appear on your Texas driving record. A first time DWI conviction carries a suspension of your license for up to one year, while additional DWI convictions carry longer suspension terms, as well as fines and possible jail time. No matter how tempting it may seem, driving with a suspended license is a misdemeanor in Texas, and never a good idea.

If you or someone you love has a suspended driver's license, you need to consult with a Collin County DWI attorney at my firm as soon as possible. If you act quickly, you may have options available to you, despite having a suspended driver's license. I have worked with hundreds of clients and handled over 230 DWI cases at trial. I understand the impact losing your license can have on your family, your job and your life. I may be able to help you obtain an occupational driver's license which would allow you to operate a non-commercial vehicle under certain conditions, such as driving to and from work or school, to pick up your children, to run household errands, and other necessary tasks.

It is extremely important in cases like these that you have a knowledgeable and experienced DWI attorney on your side who will be able to answer your questions, advise you of your legal options, and provide you with the insightful and aggressive representation you need.
