California DUI Expungement

California DUI Law Usually* Allows You to Expunge Your DUI or "Drunk Driving" Case

*NOTE: As of January 1st, 2008 expungement law regarding DUI & other driving-related misdemeanors has changed, and expungements are somewhat more difficult to obtain for those offenses.

We can expunge your California DUI conviction by withdrawing your plea and having the DUI dismissed in many circumstances. The law is complex in certain areas, but expungement is something that SHOULD be done by everyone with even a minor record.

Our fees are usually less than other expungement lawyers because we only do Expungements-Record Expungement is our practice- not a "sideline" to a general law practice.

We have successfully expunged DUI records all over California. The procedure will take from 10 to 16 weeks (and often longer) depending upon the Court, the complexity of the case, and how old the conviction is.

DUI convictions are not automatically expunged with the passage of time but require the filing and granting of an Expungement Petition in Court.

Both misdemeanor and felony California DUI convictions can usually be expunged. Once relief has been granted, you can honestly answer "no" to a question regarding criminal convictions in many circumstances. (See our FAQ page.)

Depending upon the facts of your case, successful petitions may result in:

  • The withdrawal of a plea and dismissal of the case;

  • Reduction from felony to misdemeanor;

  • Having an arrest deemed a detention only;

  • A Court finding that you were factually innocent;

  • Sealing and destruction of  juvenile records;

Please be aware that while all cases cannot be expunged most can; there are some limits on the relief an expungement can grant, such as certain DMV records.

We no longer offer services for Federal Cases, Cases with a sentence to State Prison, or Pardons.
