Losing your license after a DUI is stressful—but it’s not the end of the road.
In Michigan, a second OWI conviction within seven years leads to automatic license revocation. To get your driving privileges back, you’ll need to go through the driver’s license reinstatement process—a detailed, time-sensitive, and often confusing legal journey.
Attorney Dan Geherin, founder of Geherin Law Group in Ann Arbor, has helped hundreds of drivers successfully reinstate their licenses after DUI-related revocations. His experience as a former prosecutor and license appeals attorney gives clients a powerful advantage.
Here’s how the reinstatement process works:
- Eligibility Review – Know when you can apply (after a mandatory revocation period).
- DAAD Hearing Preparation – You’ll need documentation showing at least 12 months of sobriety, community support, and a commitment to remaining alcohol-free.
- Substance Use Evaluation – A certified counselor must complete and submit a professional evaluation.
- Letters of Support – At least 3–6 support letters from friends, family, or coworkers are required.
- Hearing Representation – At the hearing, Geherin presents evidence and testimony to demonstrate readiness for reinstatement.
Whether you're applying for a restricted license with an interlock device or full reinstatement, Geherin Law Group, PLLC. provides step-by-step guidance to maximize your chances of success.
