Negligent Operator Hearing

Bakersfield Negligent Operator Hearings Lawyer

The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) has the authority to suspend a driver's license for negligent driving. The DMV tracks all accident occurrences you have been involved with for as long as you live, whether you are at-fault driver or deemed not responsible. During a negligent operator hearing, the DMV reviews your complete driving history.

I am attorney Mark J. Madrigali with years of experience representing clients with traffic violations. My clients have never lost their license at a hearing. Contact my law office to schedule a free initial consultation.

Extensive Experience at Negligent Operator Hearings

Police officers have broad authority to take away licenses, forcing drivers to appear at a DMV hearing to prove they can drive responsibly. I have a great deal of experience aggressively representing clients who are at risk of having their driver's license revoked, such as:

  • Involved in a car or truck accident
  • Passing out in a car with a medical condition
  • Becoming a habitual offender driving recklessly or intoxicated
  • Getting arrested for drugs, even if the person was not driving

At the Law Office of Mark J. Madrigali, I have appeared in hundreds of DMV hearings and I understand how to clearly present evidence to demonstrate a client's driving history or their progress since the arrest.

For example, I have experience protecting clients who caused car accidents. I presented a letter from their doctor indicating the driver had a medical condition that caused the accident, which has now been addressed. I also protect clients arrested for drug use. If they are complying with their drug awareness program, I present a letter from the program director highlighting specific steps they have taken to avoid becoming habitual narcotic offenders. I help clients present themselves in the best possible light, enabling them to save their licenses.

The Point is . . . the Points

You have 14 days from day the DMV sends you a letter suspending your license to request a DMV hearing. I appear at your hearing and provide you with aggressive representation. In California, drivers become negligent operators with suspended or restricted licenses if they have:

  • Four points in one year: DMV suspends license for six months
  • Six points in two years: DMV suspends license for six months
  • Eight points in four years: DMV suspends license for six months

Whether you are a first or repeat offender, I aggressively fight the points against you to save your license.
