The National Driver Register (NDR) is a central repository of information on individuals whose privilege to drive has been revoked, suspended, canceled or denied or who have been convicted of serious traffic-related offenses.  The records maintained at the NDR consist of identification information including name, date of birth, gender, driver license number, and reporting state.  All of the substantive information, the reason for the suspension or conviction and associated dates, resides in the reporting state.

State driver licensing officials query the NDR to determine if an individual's license or privilege has been withdrawn by any other state.  Other authorized users have access to NDR for transportation safety purposes.  All 50 States and the District of Columbia participate in the NDR.  The system is also referred to as the Problem Driver Pointer System (PDPS).

LOSS OF COLORADO DRIVING PRIVILEGES
DMV Hearing
Defense
DMV Appeal
statute of limitations

Driving in Colorado is a constitutionally protected privilege, but nevertheless a privilege which may be lost.  Multiple statutes can cause loss of driving privileges for different driver behavior.  Drivers are entitled to a DMV hearing.  In some circumstances the right to hearing precedes potential DMV adverse action; under other Colorado traffic laws the adverse order is entered, then the driver is provided notice of the adverse action and right to request subsequent hearing.  If hearing has been held or a DMV final order has otherwise entered and the Colorado driver's license or Colorado driving privileges have been suspended, revoked or denied, the driver's remaining recourse is appeal to the District Court.  DMV appeal is subject to a statute of limitations.  Right to appeal may be lost if the driver delays.  Upon final order in the District Court, either party make take the case on appeal to the Colorado Court of Appeals.  Refer to links for additional information.

 Litigant Pro Se - Driver's Attempt to Prepare Own Defense at License Hearing

1.  Adequate Time.  If sufficient time exists to adequately prepare your driver's license defense and if prospective client approves this attorney's fees and costs structure, attorney will likely accept license defense representation.  This shall not constitute an offer of representation; attorney and prospective client retain discretion through first consultation.

2.  Insufficient Time.  If you've waited until the eleventh hour and there is not sufficient time to adequately prepare defense before a DOR license suspension or revocation hearing, please do not call.  I decline.

3.  Limited Assistance.  Please do not call requesting instruction, directions, legal theory, forms completion or limited document drafting, partial representation, or an explanation of applicable law to assist you in preparation or defense of your own license hearing.  I decline.

Attorney Policies
Representation by Previous Attorney

1.  Current Attorney.  Until an order has entered withdrawing representation by an attorney, an ethical rule violation exists if counsel knowingly speaks to another attorney's client without current attorney's consent.  This ethical rule governs all attorneys.  Please do not call until after you have terminated representation by a former attorney.  DOR hearings are set quickly - continuance requests on the basis of driver delay in retaining counsel are routinely denied.  Please be aware that after other counsel's withdrawal it may be difficult for a new attorney to prepare your defense in time for hearing.  Please also be aware fees and costs will be associated with procuring DMV files or court files and coming up to speed in the case.

2.  Adequate Time.  If prospective client terminates employment of the former attorney, if sufficient time exists to adequately prepare your license defense, and if prospective client approves this attorney's fees and costs structure, attorney will likely accept representation.  This shall not constitute an offer of representation; attorney and prospective client retain discretion through first consultation.

3.  Insufficient Time.  If you've waited until the eleventh hour and there is not sufficient time to adequately prepare your defense before a driver's license hearing, please do not call.  I decline.

4.  Second Opinion.  I will not arm chair quarterback another attorney's case preparation, trial tactics or theory of the case.  Please do not call for a second opinion or an opinion regarding the competence of preparation or defense in your current driver's license adverse action proceedings.  I decline.
 
 
DMV APPEAL TO DISTRICT COURT OR COLORADO COURT OF APPEALS

Appeal.  Attorney welcomes DOR license suspension or revocation appeals to the District Court or to the Colorado Court of Appeals.  From the DMV Appeal Webpage Index, site visitors may find information regarding procedures anticipated in a DMV appeal.  If the attorney provided representation at the DOR hearing, he is familiar with the facts, testimony and exhibits received into evidence at hearing and meritorious issues for appeal.  Retaining counsel who did not provide DOR hearing representation requires a bit more familiarization by counsel.  Please refer to:

 GEOGRAPHIC DISTANCE
ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS

Colorado is a big state.

Ease of internet access, email and toll free phone doesn't change that fact. Due to the limited nature of DMV hearing defense, it is not economically justifiable for a client to pay DMV hearing travel time or expenses outside El Paso County.

DMV hearing defense - limited trade area

 

Attorney is very willing to travel outside the Colorado Springs area to present or defend a case, but please be aware travel time, mileage and expense would apply.  If you are out of state or unfamiliar with Colorado geography, refer to the map to determine where Colorado Springs is located in relation to the county of your court case or hearing.
Colorado MAP

If travel is necessary, a trust deposit would be required to cover anticipated travel time, mileage & expenses.  If it is not economically justifiable to retain my services with travel, please contact counsel in the locale of your case.

Attorney welcomes new cases.  Intent is not to be harsh
or to discard potential new business, but to be practical.
