The ability to drive is something that you can easily take for granted until it is revoked from you. At that point, you realize how heavily you relied on your driving privileges. You also realize that you want to do anything to get them restored to you.
To regain your privilege of driving a vehicle, you have to appear before a judge and ask him or her to give you back your license. You could make a better case than appearing in person by yourself by hiring an experienced attorney who specializes in license reinstatement in Illinois.
Proving Your Reformed Behavior
A judge could be more likely to give you back your license if you have actively undertaken steps to reform your driving behavior. If you have willingly enrolled in and completed a defensive driving, anger management or drug or alcohol rehab program without being ordered by the court, you could show the judge that you are serious about being a better or safer driver. You can have your lawyer present proof of your completion to the judge.
Your lawyer can also argue that you completed your stint in jail and finished your community service if these punishments were mandated. A judge could be more willing to listen to an attorney rather than you as the defendant.
