The single biggest point of confusion after a DUI is this: people believe they need to buy a special, separate "SR-22 insurance policy." That is not accurate. An SR-22 is a certificate of financial responsibility — a one-page electronic filing that your insurance company sends to the California DMV on your behalf. It confirms your policy meets at least the state's minimum liability limits required under California Vehicle Code §16028(a): $15,000 per person / $30,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $5,000 for property damage.
In plain terms: you buy a regular car insurance policy (yes, with the higher premium that comes with a DUI on your record), and your insurer electronically notifies the state. That notification is the SR-22. You do not pay a separate premium for the certificate itself — there is a one-time filing fee, typically $25–$35, that is often bundled into your first payment.
An SR-22 is a certificate your insurer files with the California DMV — not a new type of policy — and with the right carrier, same-day electronic filing is routine.
We do not have a physical location in Lodi. Our nearest office is in Stockton at 956 W. Robinhood Dr, approximately 14 miles south on CA-99 — about a 15-to-20-minute drive. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 10am to 6pm, walk-ins welcome.
Many Lodi drivers make the short drive south to Stockton the same day because it is the fastest path to having the SR-22 filed and the license reinstated. If coming in is not possible right now:
Signatures and payment must happen before we file the SR-22 with the state. Most remote customers finalize electronically and by phone, or make the 14-mile drive to Stockton to do everything at once.
Across our three California offices, our auto book averages $766 per six-month term with a median of $558 — and rates on our book dropped 8.8% year-over-year even with DUI policies included. For a Lodi driver with a single DUI conviction, the realistic range is roughly $900–$1,400 per six-month term, depending on your vehicle, age, prior record, and which carrier prices your profile most competitively.
Not every carrier writes DUI profiles — and among those that do, pricing varies considerably. That gap between the highest and lowest quote for the same driver, same vehicle, and same record is where the comparison matters. Calling one company, accepting their number, and moving on usually means paying more than necessary.
No broker fees on standard policies at our Stockton and San Jose offices — the rate we quote is the carrier's published rate, not marked up by our office.

Call 209-670-1556 Get a Quote OnlineCalifornia requires a minimum of three years of continuous SR-22 coverage following most DUI convictions. Three details catch people off guard:
Payment continuity matters more with an SR-22 than with any other policy. If a payment is going to be difficult, call us before you miss it (209-670-1556) — carriers sometimes have payment arrangements or options that are not available after a cancellation notice has already been filed.
Several carriers in our network write auto policies — including SR-22 filings — for drivers with an AB 60 license and an ITIN or no Social Security number. Across our three California offices we serve more than 4,500 active customers, and a meaningful portion of our book is people who were told "no" somewhere else. The SR-22 filing process is identical regardless of license type; what matters is that the policy meets California's minimum liability limits and that the carrier agrees to file on your behalf.
If a Lodi lender, dealership, or other insurer told you that you cannot get SR-22 coverage because of your license type: that is often simply not true. Call us at 209-670-1556 and we will tell you directly what is and is not possible.
If your vehicle was totaled after the DUI, you sold it, or you simply do not own one, you still need the SR-22 certificate to restore your California driving privilege. A non-owner SR-22 policy provides liability coverage when you drive vehicles owned by others — it satisfies California's requirement at a lower premium than a full policy because there is no collision or comprehensive component. We write non-owner SR-22 policies; call or WhatsApp 209-670-1556 to get a quote without coming in. See also: Non-Owner SR-22 Insurance in California ›
