Question Details: DUI 11/08. Completed my classes July 09. Went to CA DMV to get my CA license and they said I have to wait 1 year after a DUI. I'm stuck, cant drive on my WA and cant get a CA? Can that be right? Thanks
Yes that can be right, you committed a serious crime. This is not to simply just punish you but ensure you don't kill anyone on the road. If you wish to actually see if you can get it back earlier, you need to hire a criminal defense attorney to negotiate a deal. Try www.attorneypages.com and check his or her disciplinary record at www.calbar.ca.gov under attorney search.

Are you a lawyer?
