Legal issues can prevent people from restoring or obtaining a driver’s license, which impedes their ability to get to work or find a job, take their kids to daycare, or obtain medical care.

How We Help

In Racine and Jefferson counties, we offer in-person monthly clinics so you can get assistance from an attorney and help you understand and resolve active suspensions and/or revocations against your Wisconsin driver’s license. Participants will speak with volunteer attorneys to help with driver’s license related issues like reopening previous legal forfeitures or unpaid fines and fees, understanding and addressing OWI related barriers, and facilitating access to occupational driver’s licenses.

Every time a suspended license is reinstated, the license holder must pay a $60.00 reinstatement fee. This can be a barrier to many who otherwise have the ability to drive again. Check to see if you’re eligible to get help paying your reinstatement fee by running through the Legal Tune Up tool!
