I represent hundreds of people in Illinois who are attempting to obtain their drivers license after being revoked for a driving under the influence of alcohol charge. Sometimes, these people will come to me after already applying for a formal reinstatement hearing with the Illinois Secretary of State. What I find is that many times a client will hire me after They have already applied for the hearing and we both agree that they are not ready to have their original hearing on the date that was first set. So the question becomes can a license reinstatement hearing be continued without a negative affect on the client.
The answer to that question is yes. Quite simply, all an attorney has to do is to send a written request to the Secretary of State indicating that he has a conflict with another matter and that he has just been retained by the client and the Secretary of State will typically agree to continue the case. This typically gives the client an additional 30 days to prepare for the case so that the hearing can be successful.
If you have any questions about your license reinstatement hearing in Illinois after being revoked for a DUI, feel free to contact drivers license lawyer John W Callahan with any questions you may have.
