Plymouth License Restoration Lawyer
If youâre looking for a Plymouth license restoration lawyer to help get your Michigan driving privileges back for good, our office can walk you through exactly what that process requires. A driverâs license restoration case is a different process from the criminal case that led to your suspension or revocation â it is decided by an OHAO hearing officer, not a judge, and it exists for drivers who are ready to prove they have turned things around.
We guarantee to win your license restoration case the first time â or we continue working on it at no additional fee until we do.
Why Choose Jeffrey Randa and Associates?
Not every law firm in the Greater Detroit area focuses on helping people restore their driving privileges. For decades, we have helped clients regain their ability to legally drive, because we understand how much your access to transportation affects your job, your family, and your daily life.
Attorney Jeffrey Randa has completed post-graduate training in addiction studies, which shapes how our office prepares every restoration case â not just what the Secretary of State requires on paper, but how to present a genuinely strong record of change. Few firms make a win-first guarantee on this kind of case. We do, because we know what it takes to win it.
What the Restoration Process Involves
Most of our restoration clients come to us after multiple DUI convictions led the Michigan Secretary of State to revoke their license under MCL 257.303, the law under which repeat offenders are categorized as a âhabitual alcohol offender.â Before a case can move forward, Michigan requires clear and convincing evidence of a legally sufficient period of verified sobriety â our office generally requires at least 18 months â and time spent on probation, incarcerated, or in a sober-living environment does not count toward that period.
Building a strong case means gathering the right documentation: a clinically sound substance use evaluation, a 12-panel drug test for specific substances, and multiple notarized letters of support. Our office handles this preparation and represents you at the OHAO hearing itself, which is conducted entirely remotely over Microsoft Teams â so it does not matter where you live.
A Plymouth License Restoration Lawyer for Clients Across Michigan
Our license restoration and clearance practice is not limited to Plymouth â we represent clients across Michigan, and for those who have moved out of state and need a Michigan license âholdâ cleared, we handle clearance cases nationwide. Because every hearing is remote, where you live never limits your ability to work with our office.
At the same time, we understand what regaining a license means specifically for someone commuting to work, running errands, or getting kids to school in and around Plymouth. That local perspective, paired with a statewide practice, is part of what our clients tell us sets our office apart.
If Your License Was Suspended for a Pending Charge
If your license is suspended or revoked because of a charge that has not yet been resolved â rather than a conviction the Secretary of State has already acted on â that is a criminal matter handled separately from restoration. Our Plymouth suspended license page covers what to expect in that situation.
FAQs
How Much Does a Michigan License Restoration Lawyer Cost?
We publish our fees because honest, upfront pricing is rare in this area of law. Our office charges a flat fee for license restoration cases rather than billing by the hour, so you know the full cost before we begin â you can view our full fee schedule on our fees page.
How Long Does the Michigan License Restoration Process Take?
Timing depends mainly on how quickly your documentation can be gathered and how the Secretary of Stateâs hearing schedule falls. Once youâre eligible to move forward, the case itself generally takes anywhere from a few months to about a year, depending on how quickly you want to proceed.
What If My Case Isnât Approved the First Time?
If that happens, we continue representing you at no additional fee until your license is restored. This guarantee applies to every restoration case our office takes on.
Does It Matter That Iâm in Plymouth for This Type of Case?
Not for eligibility â the restoration process works the same no matter where in Michigan you live, since every OHAO hearing is conducted remotely. What matters more is having an office that understands what regaining your license means for daily life in a community like Plymouth, and that is exactly the kind of case our office handles regularly.
