Requesting an Administrative License Suspension Hearing in Georgia

If you’ve been charged with a DUI in Georgia, you may be facing an administrative license suspension (ALS). In certain situations, an officer can initiate an ALS at the time of your arrest by seizing your driver’s license and serving you with a DDS 1205 form.

You have 30 days from the date you were served this form to decide if you want to:

  • Appeal the proposed suspension
  • Request an ignition interlock device limited permit (if eligible)
  • Do nothing

Requesting an ALS hearing gives you the opportunity to challenge the suspension and potentially retain your driving privileges. However, there are strategic reasons why it may or may not make sense to request this hearing, depending on the unique circumstances of your case.

Fill out the form on the right and we’ll send you an email within about a minute with the form you can use to request your Administrative License Suspension Hearing.

At Ghanouni Teen & Young Adult Defense Firm, our legal team has years of experience helping people in their teens and twenties navigate DUI charges and license suspensions. We can review your situation, explain your options, and recommend the best path forward aligned with your goals.

While we can’t promise any specific outcome, we will work to protect your driving privileges and your future to the fullest extent possible.

We strongly recommend consulting the lawyer who will be helping you with your DUI case before making the decision to initiate an Administrative License Suspension Hearing.  However, if you choose to do it yourself you can use the free form on this page to request an administrative license suspension hearing. Be sure to include:

  • Your full name as it appears on your driver’s license
  • Your current mailing address
  • Your driver’s license number (found on the DDS 1205 form)
  • Your date of birth
  • Your phone number
  • The $150 filing fee (check or money order payable to the Georgia Department of Driver Services)

We strongly recommend sending hearing requests via certified mail. This provides valuable documentation that you met the strict 30-day deadline. Be sure to keep copies of everything you send, and take pictures or scan the documents for your records.

For personalized guidance on whether requesting a hearing is right for you, contact our office. We’ll help you understand the process, consider your options, and take strategic action to defend your future.
