Orange County DMV Attorneys

DMV Hearing Lawyers in Orange County, California

When facing license suspension or revocation due to DUI or a “Negligent Operator” determination by the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles), a driver is entitled to a DMV hearing to attempt to have his or her license reinstated.

The Orange County traffic attorneys and lawyers at Gold & Witham are experienced in representing clients at DMV hearings. When we work with a client to contest their suspended license, our lawyers prepare for the hearing as we would a criminal trial, taking the time to conduct a thorough investigation and prepare the appropriate evidence and information that will help the DMV hearing officer make a decision that will work in our client’s favor.

Speeding, reckless driving, red light violations and drunk driving can all result in the need for a DMV hearing. When a driver accumulates a certain amount of points on his or her driving record within a specified time period (for instance, 4 points in a 12-month period) he or she will be labeled a Negligent Operator by the DMV and will need to request a hearing to contest their suspended license. An Orange County DMV hearing attorney who is experienced, aggressive and determined is most likely to meet with success in dealing with the California Department of Motor Vehicles.

At Gold & Witham, we offer a free case evaluation with a lawyer – so you have the opportunity to see how our firm may be able to help you at your DMV hearing.

Orange County DMV Hearings

Orange County DMV hearings are not held at the actual DMV Office but at the regional Drivers Safety Office. These hearings are not criminal proceedings, and thus a public defense lawyer is not available to a driver. Instead, a driver can work with a private lawyer, such as an Orange County traffic attorney at Gold & Witham.
