In your Michigan driver’s license hearing, you will need to clearly and convincingly demonstrate multiple evidences. You must prove that any alcohol or substance abuse problems are under control, and give reason to believe that problems will remain under control. You must prove that you present little or no risk of committing another offense or repeating past abusive behavior. You must also prove that you have the ability and motivation to drive safely within the law.

It is required that you abstain completely from alcohol and illicit substances for six months leading up to your hearing. In some Michigan driver’s license cases, you will be required to abstain from alcohol and controlled substances for a full year. These cases include: having a blood alcohol content (BAC) reading above 0.16 from any offense, three or more alcohol or drug offenses of any kind, alcohol dependency diagnosis, relapse after prior periods of abstinence, or being the driver in a vehicle accident involving alcohol. You must demonstrate this to the hearings officer with a 12-panel drug screen and a complete alcohol assessment. Our attorneys know how to review both of these items to ensure that the correct testing is done and that there aren’t any levels reported on the 12-panel drug screen results that are elevated and may be misleading in reference to your sobriety. Alcohol assessments must be correctly filled out and performed by a reputable professional. Grabel & Associates will assist you in making sure that the correct testing is performed and that the professional used will be satisfactory to the hearings officer.
