Beaverton Oregon Suspended License Lawyer
Sherwood OR Implied Consent Attorney
What You Need to Know
If you have been charged with drunk driving in Oregon, there are many things you need to know to avoid losing your license. An experienced attorney can give you all the information you need to protect your rights and timely request a hearing with the Department of Motor Vehicles to challenge the suspension of your license.
If you have been charged with drunk driving, please contact Helzer Cromar & Schneider, as soon as possible (preferably within seven days) after your arrest so we can file a request for an administrative hearing and begin preparing your defense.
License Suspension
When an individual is arrested for DUI or DUII in the state of Oregon, the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is contacted and an automatic driver's license suspension occurs. Contacting an attorney after your arrest will give you the opportunity to learn more about possible consequences of a DUI conviction and give you the information necessary to make an informed decision about requesting a hearing before the DMV to challenge the loss of your driving privileges. If this hearing is not requested in a timely manner (within 10 days of your arrest), your license will automatically be suspended for an extended period, the length of which depends on the specific facts and circumstances surrounding your arrest.
Implied Consent
By having a driver's license and operating a motor vehicle in Oregon, you have implied consent for the police to administer a breath test, blood alcohol test or other chemical test administered if they should pull you over for suspicion of drunk driving. For more information on the implied consent laws and possible consequences for refusing testing, please contact Helzer Cromar & Schneider, today.
DMV Hearing
We will thoroughly investigate your DUI-related stop and determine the best defense specific to your circumstances. We not only handle the criminal charges against you, but also represent you in the administrative proceedings before the DMV. During the DMV hearing, our attorneys will challenge the validity of the traffic stop, breath test, blood alcohol test and other facets of your arrest, arguing for your driving privileges to be restored.
