What are my chances of reinstating my license after a Virginia DUI?
Every Virginia DUI occurs under a different set of circumstances, and it is up to a judge to determine whether you may reinstate your driver's license. Circumstances that may affect the judge's decision include:
A judge will review each case individually, and make a decision based on the conditions in each particular case. Therefore, there is no standard, advantage, or guarantee that you'll be able to reinstate your driver's license. But you can increase your chances with the professional help of a Virginia DUI attorney.
How do I proceed?
To learn what the court requires from you to reinstate your driver's license, you may obtain your reinstatement requirements by requesting a Compliance Summary. You can get this from the DMV, and use it as a reference for any questions that you may have. You should also give a copy of this to your Virginia DUI defense attorney. Your attorney can review the requirements, and ensure that you do everything necessary to reinstate your driver's license.
You will also have to pay a reinstatement fee, which may range from $40 to $220. You may be able to pay this online without visiting the DMV.
