Out of State OWI Question

Question for anyone that may have dealt with this. I'm trying to figure out if speaking to a lawyer in my home state could help my situation.

First time OWI in March outside of my home state. No crash. I retained a lawyer for that state to handle the legal process. Plead no contest and received a 6 month suspension for driving within the state.

Home state added 8 points to my license and triggered an administrative suspension for 3 months. My understanding after talking to the Department of Revenue is I am not eligible for restricted driving privileges within my home state due to an out of state revocation, and they won't be able to reinstate my license until the out of state suspension is handled.

My question for anyone that may have dealt with this is: would speaking to a lawyer within my home state potentially help my situation? Would they be capable of petitioning for restricted driving privileges (with IID would even be fine) or am I simply out of luck on this?

Edit

Home State: Missouri
