How fast can I get one?

It depends on the court and your paperwork. Many clients have a signed order within 1 to 2 weeks.

The order sets your allowed purposes, hours, and sometimes routes, typically for work, school, and essential household duties.

Do I need SR-22 insurance?

In most cases, yes. We will tell you exactly what you need before we file.

Will I need an ignition interlock?

For some alcohol-related suspensions, yes. The judge decides based on your case.

What if I'm caught driving without one?

Driving while your license is suspended is a separate criminal charge. An occupational license is the legal way to keep driving.

Can you help with my DWI case too?

Yes. We're a criminal defense trial firm, and we can fight the DWI and the license suspension together.

A Suspended License Can Cost You Your Job

Rideshares add up, rides from family run out, and driving anyway risks a new charge that makes everything worse.

Texas lets many drivers ask a judge for an occupational license so they can keep working while the suspension runs.

Common reasons people need one

DWI arrest and a failed or refused breath or blood test (administrative license suspension)
DWI or other conviction that carries a suspension
Too many traffic violations or unpaid-ticket suspensions
Driving while license invalid cases
