- Q. For admin pe se refusal suspend indefinite on 3/19/21 do I need a lawyer didn't refuse blew
- A: First, you should have a lawyer for a DUI. Judges take these cases very seriously especially for a refusal. It is a 12 point ticket that carries a year jail plus possible enhanced penalties for a refusal.

As Mr. Oakley stated, your license can be suspended for 180 days or more if you refused the test or blew .08 or more. The suspension begins the 46th day after the incident. Your license can also be suspended if you were a convicted of a DUI. Even if you are eligible to get your license reinstated, you must go to the MVA to get it reinstated. It is not automatic.
