Your License Is at Risk — Right Now
The DMV does not wait for your court date. You have a narrow window to act.
Days to Request a Hearing
Miss this deadline and your license is automatically suspended. No exceptions. No extensions.
Days Until Suspension
Without a hearing request, your license is suspended 30 days after arrest — even before your court date.
Months Without Driving
A first-offense suspension lasts 6 months. Repeat offenses: 1-4 years. Jack fights to keep you on the road.
The DUI Process
What Happens After a DUI Arrest
A DUI arrest triggers two separate tracks — criminal court and the DMV. Here is what to expect, and where Jack steps in.
The Arrest (Day 0)
Time-SensitiveYou are arrested, given a pink temporary license, and released. The clock starts now — you have 10 days to request a DMV hearing.
Call Jack (Within Hours)
Time-SensitiveJack reviews your case, contacts the DMV to request a hearing on your behalf, and begins building your defense immediately. The earlier you call, the more options you have.
DMV Hearing (Weeks 2-8)
A separate proceeding from court. Jack represents you at the DMV, challenging the evidence to keep your license. Winning here can also strengthen your criminal defense.
Arraignment (Weeks 4-8)
Your first court appearance. Jack can appear on your behalf for most misdemeanor cases — you may not need to miss work or face the courtroom yourself.
Negotiation & Motions
Jack challenges the evidence, files motions to suppress, and negotiates with prosecutors. Many cases are resolved here — through dismissal, reduction, or favorable plea.
Resolution
Whether through negotiation or trial, Jack fights for the best possible outcome — dismissal, reduced charges, or minimized penalties. Most cases resolve in 2-6 months.
What to Do Right Now
If you were just arrested for DUI, follow this checklist. These steps can make a real difference in your case.
Do NOT discuss your case with anyone except your attorney — not friends, not family, not on social media.
Write down everything you remember about the arrest — the stop, what was said, what tests were given, and the timeline.
Do NOT contact the arresting officer or the DA's office on your own.
Request a DMV hearing within 10 days — or have your attorney do it for you immediately.
Gather any evidence you have — dashcam footage, witness contacts, receipts showing where you were.
Call Jack. The sooner an experienced DUI attorney is involved, the stronger your defense.
