Miami DHSMV Hearing Lawyer
Administrative License Suspension Hearings in Miami, Florida
In Florida, a driver who fails or refuses a breath test or blood test after a drunk driving arrest will face the automatic suspension of his or her driver's license. If the breath or blood test shows a blood alcohol concentration of .08% or greater, or if the driver refuses the test altogether this may be grounds for the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) to suspend the driver's license. However, the driver must have been lawfully arrested.
If you were arrested for DUI in Miami and were served a Notice of Suspension of your driver's license, you will have 10 days to contact the Florida DHSMV to request an administrative hearing. Your DHSMV hearing will be your only opportunity of avoiding license suspension and revocation, so it is important to act quickly to request your hearing.
