West Palm Beach Administrative License Revocation Lawyer
If you are arrested on suspicion of driving while under the influence of alcohol, the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles may revoke your license through a process known as “Administrative License Revocation”. Administrative license revocation is a controversial process that punishes a driver who either refuses to submit a blood, breath, or urine test in addition to those who do test for a blood alcohol content over the legal limit.
Such sanctions happen swiftly, and do not require proof of guilt. The experienced West Palm Beach administrative license revocation lawyers at Eric N. Klein & Associates, P.A. will fight for your civil liberties if your license is unduly revoked. Contact our offices at 561-353-2800 to enlist the aid of our years of experience dealing with such laws.
Why are they allowed to do this?
The notion of “implied consent” holds that, in exchange for the state of Florida extending the privilege of driving within the state, a license holder gives Florida law enforcement officers the consent to test them for alcohol or illegal substances, so long as that officer has reasonable suspicion and probable cause that the driver is under the influence.

- 1st Suspension for Failure to Submit a Test: 1 year.
- 2nd+ Suspension for Failure to Submit a Test: 18 months.
