About Akel & Associates

San Diego DUI Information

If arrested for DUI in the County of San Diego, one should be given a DS 367 form that gives the defendant notice that he or she only has 10 days to request a DMV hearing from the date of his or her arrest. If one does not request a hearing, he or she will most likely lose their driving license on the thirtieth day after the arrest. Studies have shown that the assistance of an attorney during a DMV hearing can double the chances of winning a case.
