Letters from Georgia DUI Clients
[CDL Driver Entered Guilty Plea to a DUI while driving his personal vehicle and Lost Ability to Drive Commercial Vehicles for a full year]
From :S.B. [via e-mail]
Sent: Saturday, September 22, 2007 10:10 AM
Subject: CDL Suspension
I got a 1st time DUI conviction in May 07, in a non-commercial vehicle, among other requirements, I got a 120 day suspension on my license, that suspension was up on 9/21/07, I did all they wanted me to do, i.e. DUI school, counseling, and even on my own did AARP driver safety program, I called Conyers to verify that I could get my CDL back and was told I had to go to Albany or Waycross, I did that and paid, and all they gave me was a regular license and was inform that my CDL is suspended till May 23, 08, all I've ever received from DDS was the 120 day suspension, nothing stating that my CDL would be suspended for a year.
What I need to know is, is there an appeal process to get this overturned, when I plead guilty I was under the assumption that this was only a judicial suspension, and that it wouldn't affect my CDL.

Dear S.B.,
I cannot explain how you were under the mistaken impression about a DUI conviction NOT totally disqualifying you for a CDL permit for your license, but you virtually have no avenue to appeal. If this was on the advice of an attorney, then you may have a legal malpractice claim.
Once the guilty plea for DUI hit the record (regardless of what type of vehicle you were driving) you have no CDL privileges for 1 full year. You were eligible for a REGULAR driver’s license, and received that from the DDS office you visited.
A second DUI disqualifies you FOR LIFE.
I would not take any money from you and tell you that I (or anyone) can reinstate your CDL privileges until one full year from the plea date has expired.
William C. Head
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
From their many successes in the courtroom to the highest "AV" rating a firm can receive, the law office of Head, Thomas, Webb & Willis has proven to be the best DUI defense firm in the state of Georgia. Senior partner William C. Head is a passionate and informed lecturer and has also written a life-saving book for those charged with DUI, entitled The DUI Book . But don't take the firm's word. Take the word from some of their clients.
LAO writes.
"Your staff is amazing. They are extremely detailed, calming, knowledgeable and on top of things. Thanks for all your hard work."
M.R. writes.
"Saying "Thank You" doesn't express my appreciation for the understanding and encouragement you have given me. Even though I feel like I'm living in limbo (while the case is pending), I can at least continue on with the volunteer work I do that requires driving a car."
While all of the letters received from the firm's clients may be different, they all have one underlying subject in common: their appreciation for the dedication of this Atlanta-based firm. Gratitude, relief and the ability to move forward are all of the emotions felt from these powerful letters.
Perhaps the most important part of these letters is their ability to speak to you. Maybe you are at a point where they were two years ago. Imagine in two years where you can be if you go to Head, Thomas, Webb & Willis. You may be the very next person added to their list of happy clients.
