Driving on a Revoked License
By: Attorney Derek Martin
After a fender-bender the client fled the scene, scared of the consequences of driving on a revoked license. DDT reduced the charge to a misdemeanor and persuaded police not to charge the client's daughter, who had originally taken the blame.
Imagine you are having a normal day, living your life, and going about your business. Then your phone rings — it’s the police, asking you to come into the station to speak with them. You may be wondering, “What is this about?” Unless you already know.
The police called our client about an accident that had occurred near her home a few days earlier. Typically, the parties would exchange insurance, call the police if serious, and move on. It becomes a bigger deal when one driver doesn’t have a valid license — in our client’s case, revoked.
There are many ways for an Illinois driver’s license to be suspended: failure to pay tickets, five or more unpaid tollway/parking tickets, family responsibility or child support, failure to appear in court, civil judgments from uninsured accidents, refusing a breath test, blowing over .08 BAC, three convictions in a year (over 21), or two convictions in a year (under 21).
Our client had fled, fearful of the consequences. Her daughter had originally taken responsibility for the crash to shield her. Through careful work with the prosecutors, we reduced the charge to a misdemeanor and persuaded the police not to charge her daughter — a result that protected both mother and child from the worst consequences of a single bad decision.

October 6, 2026“Had 4 different cases that tied into one and this team resolved all of them that (some) have been open since 2021, which is how long I’ve been without a license. Contacted them in July 2026 after receiving 2 back to back cases on top of 2 already being open and I received my license back in September with only supervision. This team stays in constant communication and was always readily available to text and/ or call with all answers to my questions and concerns being from I’m from another state and only work around the area. Thanks team, you’re appreciated .”

October 6, 2026“I don't think I could've gotten through my DUI without them. They brought my charges down to a misdemeanor, made sure I was aware of every single court date, ensured that I understood everything, and that all essential information was communicated thoroughly and effectively. When I missed a court date on accident, they were able to help me get the warrant dismissed and set a new court date, and reminded me the previous night. All in all, I truly believe that money was well spent with them and I would recommend them to anyone going through a DUI or anything similar.”
