Can a DUI be expunged?

Expungement laws vary by state, but in most cases, DUI convictions cannot be expunged or sealed from your criminal record. This means that the conviction will remain on your record permanently. Some states may allow for the conviction to be “set aside” or “vacated”, which means that it will still appear on your record, but it will show that the conviction was later dismissed. Additionally, some states may allow for the conviction to be sealed after a certain period of time has passed, but this also varies by state and there may be strict eligibility criteria. It is important to consult with an attorney in your state to determine if and how a DUI conviction can be expunged or sealed from your record.
