Re: Expired license

"Fix it?" By turning yourself into the court on the arrest warrant that was issued, negotiating with the DA and judge as to what jail time or fines and penalties you will suffer for the failure to appear, and negotiating a 'deal' on the DUI or going to trial. This is not a situation you should attempt without counsel, because doing so will only reinforce in the DA and judge's mind that you don't take this very seriously. With counsel representing you, they understand you are paying the price to do it right, and your chances are better for staying out of jail. Feel free to contact me if you realize you need representation, and if the case is in SoCal courts.
