Commercial Driver's License Disqualification

Is Your CDL License in Jeopardy?

If you are a professional truck driver and have been charged with DWI or another traffic violation, your commercial driver's license (CDL) is at risk. But remember, while it is easy for police to make an arrest, it is much harder to get a conviction. The attorneys at Pelley Law Office, L.L.P. know this and know how to protect professional truck drivers from the consequences of a conviction.

If you are a truck driver and have been arrested for DWI/DUI or another traffic violation in Texas, speak to a CDL defense lawyer at Pelley Law Office, L.L.P. as soon as possible. Your chance for success decreases each day you wait to meet with an attorney. Contact us today to schedule a free legal consultation.

Protect Your CDL Today

The first thing to remember if your CDL is in jeopardy is you need to act quickly. There are strict time limits that can keep you from mounting a proper defense and saving your CDL if you delay. It is important to be proactive in your defense because the consequences of a conviction are so severe. Consider the consequences facing a commercial truck driver who has been arrested for DWI.

In addition to the fines and criminal penalties anyone convicted of drunk driving faces, commercial drivers face additional, career-threatening punishments:

  • For a first DWI conviction, your license will be suspended for one year.
  • For a second DWI conviction, your license will be suspended for life.

Remember, these CDL disqualification penalties apply even if you are arrested driving out of state or driving your personal vehicle.

Clearly, the cost of losing your license will far outweigh the cost of hiring an experienced defense attorney to defend your rights. We understand that your CDL is your livelihood. We will use our skill and experience in criminal law to help you keep your license and avoid the consequences of a conviction.

Client Testimonials

Just a brief note to tell you how appreciative I am of how effective you were in my Bankruptcy Proceedings. I was never worried because I knew I was being represented by the best. Thank you!

- F.B.


I was faced with a first degree felony, which meant 5-99 years behind bars. It was terrifying. You are not only a great attorney but a very honest man with integrity...you saved my life.

- A.N.


From the first moment I met Mr. Pelley, he made me feel at ease. I was always updated, whether via mail or phone call of court dates and information concerning my case. He did a remarkable job and went above and beyond all my expectations. I wouldn't have to think twice about recommending Mr. Pelley to represent any of my family members or closest friends.
