Besides the criminal case that's tried in the San Francisco courts, you also need a qualified DMV defense lawyer to represent you at the California Department of Motor Vehicles driver's license suspension hearing.
To begin with, you only have 10 days from the day of your arrest to request a DMV administrative hearing. You can make this request yourself or we can make it for you once you retain our services. Either way, it's extremely important to request a driver's license suspension hearing. If you don't, your license will be suspended automatically even if the criminal DUI charges are dropped.
Furthermore, a skilled DMV defense lawyer in San Francisco can use the DMV hearing to your advantage and gather information to help prepare for the criminal court case.
