What steps do I do to get my license back after a DUI? 30 Answers as of March 12, 2012

Check with other insurance companies for comparison. You should contact DMV and inquire what is required in your particular case. In general, completion of alcohol school, license suspension served, insurance, etc.

You need to work out a payment plan in order for the DPS to allow you to get your dl back. The insurance company needs to get a hold of the DPS and lift the hold on your dl. You can contact the dps and see if there are any other options or if there is another reason your license is revoked.

I strongly urge you to consult an attorney skilled in representing people charhed with DUI and the administrative aspect of driver's license suspension.

Your only options are to pay the judgement under their terms or pay it in full.

Contact DMV and ask them to reinstate your license.

Your insurance company does not reinstate licenses; the state; specifically, the Secretary of State's Office does. Further, you may owe the state driver's responsibility fees or other costs. I'd recommend you retain a lawyer who handles driver's restoration matters to assist you. You need someone to carefully review your driving record and sort through your possible suspensions or revocation. Speaking generally, you may be need to file a request for reinstatement with the Secretary of State and may need representation at a hearing before the Driver's Assessment and Appeal's Division as well. Further, you may need to prove your sobriety at this hearing. Simply paying off your insurance company, while it may be a useful step in the process, may not be enough to get your license back. I'd recommend you retain a lawyer to help you with this matter.

Until you satisfy the restitution on the accident, you will not be able to get your license reinstated.

Who will not reinstate you license? Go to DMV to determine what really needs to be done to have your license reinstated then follow those instructions.

Until you have paid off what you owe, your license will not be reinstated.

You don't say what is in the promissory note. Since you are making time payments, the note can assess interest on the unpaid balance. This is generally 12% per annum. Besides the promissory note obligation, I suspect that Department of Licensing is also going to require you to have SR22 insurance. This is high risk insurance and can be expensive. Also, have you complied with all the terms imposed upon you by the court? Do you need to have a guardian interlock device on your car? I suspect that you probably do. The only way I can answer your question is to see the court judgment and the promissory not. Without either, I cannot advise you and can only speculate. You need to retain an attorney.
