How to reinstate a revoked licence in Illinois
<p>Around 10 years ago I was a dumb kid and made a lot of mistakes. I received two DUIs before I was 18. Since then I have changed, moved to China to live for 8 or so of those years, but I have finally moved back to the USA.</p>
<p>My question is what would be the process of getting it reinstated, and also is it necessary for me to hire a lawyer for it?</p>

<p>You apply for a license as you would normally.</p>
<p>According to <a href="https://www.edgarsnyder.com/drunk-driving/driving-alcohol-laws/illinois.html#Drivers_License_Revocation_Periods" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this page on illinois law</a>, a second DUI results in a five year ban from reapplying. This has expired.</p>
<p>Unless you were banned for a longer period for reasons you haven't mentioned, you should have no problem applying for a new license.</p>
