Am I able to get my license back after a DUI?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
If it's your first DUI you should at least be eligible for a restricted license for work and school. If your license has been suspended, you will have to wait the required time period, pay all your fines and driver's responsibility fees, and then apply to get your license back with the DADD.

If you've been charged then you need a lawyer. Otherwise, I can't think of how you'll change CPS's mind.
