Bakersfield License Suspension Attorney

Don’t Let a DUI Take Away Your Freedom to Drive

If you’ve been arrested for a DUI, you face having your driver’s license suspended. This can come not only from sentencing in the criminal courts, but also as an automatic penalty from the DMV, and the length of the suspension can vary depending on the circumstances of the case.
