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.
