Fort Myers Suspended License Lawyers

Driving with no valid driver’s license (NVDL) or driving while license suspended license (DWLS) can lead to long-lasting consequences that put your driving privileges in jeopardy.

Lee Viacava has represented thousands of people throughout Southwest Florida accused of DWLS and NVDL. At the Lee Viacava Law Firm, he draws from more than 15 years of experience to protect his clients’ rights aggressively when defending serious criminal charges. If you face an offense related to driving without a valid license, you can rely on him to protect your rights – and your driving privileges – assertively.

What Are The Potential Sentences?

Although driving on a suspended license and driving with no valid driver’s license sound similar, they are different offenses. NVDL is when someone who does not have a driver’s license operates a motor vehicle. It is the less serious charge and can result in a fine of up to $500 and up to 60 days in jail.

DWLS is when a driver with a suspended or revoked license continues to operate a motor vehicle. Driving with a suspended or revoked license can result in an even longer suspension – or a permanent revocation, in some circumstances. DWLS can result in the following penalties:

  • First offense: A misdemeanor charge with a fine of up to $500 and up to 60 days in jail.
  • Second offense: A misdemeanor charge with a fine of up to $1,000 and up to one year in jail.
  • Third offense: A felony charge with up to $5,000 and up to five years in jail.
