Petition to Restore Virginia Driving Privileges
The most serious type of case involving a driving privilege revocation requires a Petition to be filed and argued with the appropriate Virginia Circuit Court.

We frequently represent clients with this Petition. A common scenario involves a petitioner from another state who needs to clear up his/her Virginia status in the National Driver Registry.
