Driver’s License Restoration

Following a DUII arrest or failure to provide a breath, blood or urine sample, your driver’s license will be suspended, unless you contest the suspension. If you are convicted for a third (or subsequent) DUII, your license will be permanently revoked. You can also lose your driver’s license for accumulating five traffic citations within two years, failure to appear in court, failure to pay child support and numerous other offenses.

Losing your driving privileges is more than a petty annoyance. Losing your license can make it difficult, if not impossible, to earn a living. And lack of a driver’s license will greatly inconvenience you and other members of your family.

Gilroy Napoli Short Law Group is a firm that works hard to restore the driving privileges of people whose licenses have been suspended and revoked. We understand the many complex aspects of these cases and argue successfully in DMV hearings and in court.

Representation in DMV Hearings

You have only 10 days from the date of your DUII arrest to request a hearing before an administrative officer contesting the suspension of your license. You can request a hearing online through the Oregon DMV.

Our lawyers vigorously defend people arrested for DUII in both DMV administrative hearings and in criminal DUII proceedings. In the DMV hearing, we can challenge the basis for the stop, arrest, field sobriety tests, or breath test, and if successful, we can prevent the automatic suspension of your license. This possibility is enhanced if the police officer fails to show up at the hearing or provides testimony that contradicts paperwork or other facts.

Driver’s License Restoration Hearings in Court

People whose licenses have been permanently revoked because of multiple DUII convictions, habitual traffic offender status or other reasons must go to court to seek the restoration of their driving privileges. While Oregon courts recognize the need for people to drive to get to work, get medical care and provide for their children’s needs, they will not automatically restore a person’s driving privileges. They will consider factors such as the degree of violence in the events leading to the revocation, your behavior before and after your arrest, a possible a psychological evaluation and other information.

Our firm can take your case to court, presenting evidence regarding your rehabilitation, your character, and other facts that justify the restoration of your license.

       I just wanted to take a moment to say that I had a very smooth and great experience working with Jenna Richards. She was very attentive to my situation and was always quick to respond with information or answers to my questions. It felt like the whole process was in good hands with Jenna and I am grateful to have worked with her regarding my situation.

      Amanda and this firm are the absolute BEST OF THE BEST. Talking to her for 30 seconds will get you more information than hiring most lawyers for 2 years. Wow.  I am absolutely astonished at her skill and experience. She is very kind and incredibly helpful. Thank you so much!

      I had the misfortune of being wrongfully accused of a crime. Like many other people, I looked to other's experiences along with online reviews for direction on who to have represent me. I quickly recognized how highly respected and experienced Mr. Jeff Napoli and his team were as they have earned a solid reputation throughout the Portland metro area. Mr. Napoli was always prompt in responding and communicating with me. Mr. Napoli went above and beyond in repeatedly contacting the district attorney's office on my behalf and equally kept me apprised of what was transpiring.

Throughout this ordeal, I was also represented by Ms. Jenna Richards, a member of Mr. Napoli's team. My family and I were highly impressed. Both Jeff and Jenna conducted a thorough counter-investigation which clearly proved I was innocent of the charges against me. This was one of the most stressful periods in my life and I could not thank them enough for all of the help, attention and respect they showed me throughout this entire year-long ordeal.

I highly recommend Gilroy, Napoli and Short law firm to anyone seeking top tier representation. Thank you Jeff, Jenna and their entire team!

      It was 2022 and I thought I had lost my future. Due to careless due diligence, I made some seriously stupid decisions and ended up in a criminal defense case. This was my first legal experience and I had never been more emotionally distraught in my life. Thankfully, I made the right decision in having Tucker Rossetto as my attorney. The penalties could've been much worse, but he got it down to less than I thought it would be. From felony to misdemeanor. It was reassuring to know that there was light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you for everything!

      I recently had the pleasure of working with Jenna Richards, an outstanding attorney at Gilroy Napoli Short. From the moment I met Jenna, I was impressed by her expertise, professionalism, and commitment to my case.

Jenna's ability to simplify complex legal matters and communicate them clearly was remarkable. She took the time to understand my concerns and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. Jenna's attention to detail and strategic thinking were invaluable in building a strong case, and her confident presence in the courtroom left a lasting impression.

What sets Jenna apart is not only her legal skills but also her genuine care for my well-being. She kept me informed throughout the process, promptly addressing any questions I had. Her support and personal attention made me feel like a valued client.

Overall, working with Jenna Richards at Gilroy Napoli Short was an exceptional experience. I highly recommend Jenna and the entire team for their top-notch legal representation. They are a reputable firm, and Jenna is an exceptional attorney who will go above and beyond to protect your rights and interests.
