MICHIGAN DRIVER'S LICENSE RESTORATION ATTORNEY
If your license has been revoked for multiple drunk driving offenses, drug offenses, offenses involving serious injuries, or any other reason for a driver's license revocation, then you will need to apply to restore your license through the Driver Assessment and Appeal Division (DAAD) of the Michigan Secretary of State. The only way that you will get your Michigan driver's license restored is to get your driver's license restored through this administrative agency, DAAD.
If you are restoring your license for multiple drunk driving convictions or controlled substances, then you must prove by clear and convincing evidence that (1) your alcohol or substance abuse problems, if any, are under control and likely to remain under control, (2) the risk of the you repeating past abusive behavior is a low or minimal risk, (3) the risk of you repeating the act of operating a motor vehicle while impaired by, or under the influence of, alcohol or drugs is a low or mimimal risk, and (4) you have the ability and motivation to drive safely and within the law. R 256.313(2) (Rule 13).
In order to demonstrate this to DAAD, you must prove your sobriety and that any drug or alcohol issue that you have is under control and in sustained, full remission. You demonstrate your sobriety through:
A. Substance Abuse Evaluation - The Law Office of Eric J. Sheppard utilizes the best substance abuse evaluators throughout the State of Michigan to assist you in getting your driver's license back. Our evaluators know how to identify issues and make appropriate recommendations.
B. Support Letters - You will need multiple support letters to support your sobriety in the community. Your support letters must include information regarding the person's relationship to you, how long the person has known you, how often the person sees you, the person's knowledge about your past and current use of alcohol and controlled substances, the person's knowledge of your last consumption of alcohol or controlled substances, and general character information. If you take certain types of medication, then you will need a letter from your prescribing physician. If you treat for mental health issues, then you will need a letter from your counselor/therapist/medical provider. The Law Office of Eric J. Sheppard knows what these letters should and should not include. We will assist you in completing this mandatory requirement for obtaining your driver's license.
C. 10-panel drug screen - We will assist you in finding the correct place to assist you in meeting your DAAD requirements and obtaining your driver's license.
