DMV Restoration Hearings

If you have been charges with a DWI, have received multiple speeding tickets or have paid an out of state ticket that revoked your license in North Carolina, North Carolina may suspend your driving privilege. But before you lose your ability to drive the DMV must provide you with the opportunity for a hearing.

At The Conner Law Firm we provide effective legal representation at these DMV hearings. We recognize that a suspended driver's license can have serious consequences on all aspects of your life. Without a driver's license, you may not be able to get to work or attend to the needs of your family. It is extremely important that you are prepared for this hearing, and if your hearing requires witnesses, it is important that you select the right persons to take with you and that they are prepared for the questions that may be asked by the hearing officer. Contact us today for your free consultation related to the defense for your upcoming DMV hearing.
