Los Angeles DUI: Expungement

If you’ve been convicted of DUI in Los Angeles, you may feel that there is nothing you can do to get your life back in order.  Higher insurance premiums, difficulty with employment, and strained relationships are only a few of the results a DUI conviction can have on your life. While everyone would like to be able to turn back the clock and avoid the situation that caused the DUI conviction in the first place, an expungement of your record may be the next best thing, and a viable solution to help you return to the life you led before the conviction.

There are different types of expungements, which can be applied to different circumstances. Your Los Angeles DUI defense attorney will know which type of expungement applies to your particular case, and how to file for it. In general, however, an expungement can be used to reduce a felony DUI conviction to a misdemeanor, or have a misdemeanor DUI conviction erased from your record. If you pled guilty to Dui in Los Angeles, a plea of not guilty would be entered in its place, without the need for a trial.
