ATTORNEY GUY SELIGMAN HELPS REINSTATE DRIVER’S LICENSES FOR ‘HABITUAL OFFENDERS’

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (May 23, 2014) – In Florida, a driver with suspended or revoked driver’s licenses due to the accumulation of violations and points is described as a “habitual traffic offender.”   These drivers often turn to Fort Lauderdale attorney Guy Seligman to help them legally getting back on the road. 

“If you have lost your drivers license due to accumulation of points, or even DUI, don’t give up – there is a chance I can get it back for you,” said Seligman. “There are circumstances that allow drivers to get their privileges reinstated, but it requires a sound legal defense.  Since you do not want to get caught driving with a suspended license, you need to act fast and find out what recourse you may have.”

If a client’s license was suspended in the state of Florida for points, as a habitual traffic offender (non-DUI related), or by court order, The Law Offices of Guy Seligman’s can help.  One solution is a “hardship license,” which allows one to drive to and from work (or to and from childcare) during the suspension period. 

The Florida Department of Motor Vehicles will deem a driver as a “habitual traffic offender” if the individual’s driving record shows accumulated convictions described below.

THREE convictions of any of the following offenses in separate acts:

1. Voluntary or involuntary manslaughter resulting from the operation of a motor vehicle
2. Driving Under the Influence (DUI)
3. Any felony in the commission of which a motor vehicle is used
4. Driving a motor vehicle while your license is suspended or revoked
5. Failing to stop and render aid as required under the laws of this state in the event of a motor vehicle crash resulting in the death or personal injury of another, OR

FIFTEEN convictions for moving traffic offenses for which points may be assessed can result in you being deemed a Habitual offender

Seligman suggests that anyone at risk of loosing their license, or those with already suspended or revoked licenses contact his hot line at: 954/760-7600 covering: Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Orlando, Jacksonville, Tampa, and all of Florida.  This new hotline is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays.

“People need to learn their rights and speak to an experienced suspended license attorney,” said Seligman.  “We cannot promise to help everyone, but we have a great track record. The sooner we meet to figure out what is going on, the sooner we can help you get back on the road to success.”
