The Law Offices of Virginia L. Landry, Inc. specializes in Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) cases. We have extensive experience before the DMV and bring a high level of skill and knowledge to these types of cases.

The Department of Motor Vehicles uses its broad powers to allegedly keep those persons most likely to create a traffic hazard off the road. Statistically speaking, when there is contact with the DMV, the administrative process is designed to take away the license.

There are five basic types of DMV hearings that you might be exposed to:

1. Administrative Per Se (APS)
2. Fraud
3. Negligent Operator
4. Physical and Mental
5. Fatality
   

The most common hearing is the Administrative Per Se hearing.

Starting with major changes in the California statutes in approximately 1990, those persons faced with driving under the influence cases also risk the loss of their driver’s license privileges, sometimes for a substantial time.

California Law provides the driver with a hearing where the DMV wants to determine if the suspect was lawfully stopped, legally arrested and were the results accurate and reliable, in excess of a 0.08% blood alcohol concentration.

The lenght of the possible suspension is determined by a variety of factors, such as whether or not there are any "prior offenses", a refusal to complete a test, or other drugs or medications which could affect the ability to safely operate a vehicle.

Since there are strict time periods to request a hearing, please call us immediately and we will set that hearing on your behalf.

Each hearing has different issues and the ability to win a Set Aside Order (the ultimate goal in any DMV hearing) depends on the circumstances of your individual facts. We can help you set up the hearing and prepare you to testify if necessary. Our objective is to have you return to lawful driving as soon as possible.
