Frequently asked questions
Driving after suspension or revocation is a misdemeanor; driving after cancellation (typically DWI-related) escalates to a gross misdemeanor with up to a year in jail. This is a criminal case, and our attorneys treat it like one.
Very often — especially if the underlying suspension can be cured first. Paying old fines, filing proof of insurance, or reinstating through DVS frequently persuades prosecutors to amend or dismiss. We coordinate the reinstatement and the court case together.
Minnesota must properly notify you before suspending. Our attorneys pull your DVS record and challenge the charge when notice was sent to a stale address or never sent at all.
Many drivers qualify for a limited license for work, school, or treatment, depending on why DVS suspended them. An attorney can determine eligibility and file for it while defending the criminal charge.
