What Is the Administrative Process?

The administrative process hearing precedes a criminal hearing for a DUI. The Utah Driver License Division conducts these hearings and an employee will decide if a person charged with a DUI can keep their license. The employee will weigh the evidence collected by a police officer and determine if there was a reasonable chance of intoxication at the time of arrest. Because of the subjective nature of these hearings, a knowledgeable attorney can help you make your case.

There Are Strict Timelines – Talk to a DUI Defense Lawyer Now

People arrested for a DUI have a 10-day time limit to request an administrative hearing. If you miss this deadline, you will most likely lose your ability to drive for an extended period of time.

Call our Salt Lake City DUI attorneys immediately after an arrest. We can file the correct paperwork to get your hearing scheduled and start building your criminal defense. There is no such thing as a "small" DUI charge – a conviction can carry heavy fines, an expensive ignition interlock system, and the loss of your license. The administrative process hearing is your first chance to defend yourself.
