We can help you employ these rights strategically to make it as likely as possible to keep your license. As of 2025, you only have one week from the date of your arrest to mail in your request for a hearing, so you need to make sure you retain our office before this time.

Our DUI Attorneys Can Fight For Your Right to Drive 

Our team of DOL hearing lawyers in Snohomish County can make a case on your behalf regarding facts that support your right to keep your license.

It is still possible you may keep your license; an attorney at our Snohomish County DUI law firm will do everything we can to help you before and during your DOL hearing.
