Have you lost your drivers license because of drunk driving convictions? Has your license been revoked? If so, you need to go through the drivers license restoration Michigan process. You will need to submit evidence to the Michigan Secretary of State including treatment records, Alcoholics Anonymous sign-in sheets, a substance use evaluation from a qualified substance abuse counselor, and 3 to 6 letters from individuals who are in a position to substantiate your sobriety.

Any qualified Michigan license lawyer will tell you that the letters are of critical importance.  The letters substantiate your ongoing sobriety. They are usually from family, friends, and coworkers.

Let’s assume you are still in Michigan but know you will be moving to another state in the near future.  When should you start securing the evidence for your Michigan drivers license restoration case?  A good Michigan drivers license attorney would probably advise you to start securing your evidence before you move to another state. For example, you might want to get the individuals based in Michigan to write their letters before you move.  It’s usually a lot easier to get evidence when you still live in the area than it is from another state. Likewise, it makes sense to gather other evidence that’s located in Michigan before you move, such as treatment records.

I would urge you to consult with a Michigan driver license lawyer about what evidence to submit in your particular case and also, the timing of your submission of evidence to the Michigan Secretary of State.
