To answer this question properly I would need to know if you are currently on probation. I would also like to know if your license was suspended as a condition of your probation. If it has been then you need to talk to a lawyer about a Motion to Modify the Conditions of your Probation. If you are not on probation you should go to the Department of Motor Vehicles and ask that your license be reinstated. They may want you to obtain SR-22 insurance and provide proof of current insurance. I hope this helps.

You should hire a lawyer to get you what is called a "occupational/essential these" drivers license. This will allow you to have a drivers license to perform the things that you need to, such as work, school, grocery store, etc.

You need to call a DWI attorney and see if you are eligible for a Occupational or Restricted Drivers License. DPS will know if you are eligible as well.
