Biography
More Than 26 Years Of Experience Restoring Driver's Licenses
I established my law practice, Daryl J. Wood and Associates, in 2015 to focus on license restoration and criminal defense work in Michigan. As a sole practitioner with more than 25+ years of experience helping clients preserve their driving privileges and defend against criminal charges, I have both the experience and flexibility to be a powerfully effective advocate for my clients. I don't take cases I know I can't win and will be straightforward with you about the situation you face.
Despite my depth of experience and no-nonsense style, I don't tell my clients what to do. Instead, I provide them with the information and perspective they need about the legal process and the laws in Michigan that will apply in their cases. I help my clients make informed and independent decisions that will serve them best in the long run, whether that involves making a plea deal, interpreting complex statutes, going to trial or pursuing an appeal.
I am a trusted resource to whom other Michigan attorneys turn for clarification about driver's license restoration. I have participated in many Driver's License Appeals Division (DLAD) and circuit court license restoration hearings statewide and have presented to Michigan's Institution of Continuing Legal Education (ICLE) and the State Bar of Michigan on the topic of license restoration.
I earned my law degree from Thomas M. Cooley Law School in 1996. I have also served as both a city councilman and mayor of Keego Harbor, Michigan. Give me a call to learn how I can help you preserve your license or defend against a criminal charge.
Preserve Your Freedom
If you're facing a criminal charge or stand to lose your license, you need the right information from a lawyer with experience to help you choose the next best step for you. I provide initial consultations for new clients. To schedule your appointment to discuss your situation, call or text my office in Plymouth at 248-318-3238 or email me, and we'll find a time to talk.
