Two cases, three license actions

The case about your license

NRS 484C.230

The revocation begins on day eight and the right to contest it administratively is lost. The revocation then stands regardless of what happens in the criminal case.

Common questions

Do I have two separate cases after a DUI arrest?
Yes. One is the criminal case, which runs through the courts and takes months. The other is an administrative case about your license, which runs at the state agency on its own timetable and starts straight away. Winning one does not settle the other.
What happens if I miss the hearing request deadline?
The suspension takes effect on its own, without anyone reviewing whether it should. This is the step people miss most often, because the court date feels like the official one and the license notice looks like paperwork.
Does the criminal charge being dropped save my license?
Not by itself. The agency applies a lower standard than a criminal court and answers a different question, so the license action can stand even where the charge does not.
Do I need a lawyer for a first DUI arrest in Nevada?
Not everyone does, and the cost is worth weighing honestly. What compresses the decision is the license deadline, which falls long before the criminal case gets going. Decide within the first week rather than waiting for a court date.
