DUI Deadline
If you have been arrested for drunk driving or
DUI in the state of Washington, you have 30 days from the date of
your arrest to request a
hearing with the Department of Licensing. While the hearing is
optional, if you waive your right to a hearing, you will subsequently
lose your driving privileges without ever having a chance to defend
yourself.
The
lawyers at the Bellevue DUI Attorneys encourage you to call our
offices before you file your hearing request. We will provide valuable
legal information that will aid you in your defense.
A law enforcement officer should have provided you with a Hearing
Request Form at the time of your arrest. If he or she did not, or if you
have misplaced your form, you may obtain one at
Washington Department of Licensing's website. Your hearing before
the Licensing Board may mean the difference between losing your license
or keeping it. Do not make the mistake of waiving your right to a
hearing.
If you have been charged with DUI in Seattle, Bellevue, Tacoma,
Everett, and Puget Sound, or throughout King, Pierce and Snohomish
counties and beyond, you are entitled to a hearing to defend yourself
against the charge. The attorneys at Bellevue DUI Attorneys can
provide you with assistance in filling out your Hearing Request Form,
and represent you in your hearing before the Board of Licensing.
