DUI Expungement
DUI expungement, sometimes called ‘expunction,’ is a legal process that ensures your criminal or DUI records cannot be viewed by anyone but a representative of the courts. This is commonly referred to as having your records ‘sealed,’ because they do still exist in the record-keeping system of the courts, but are inaccessible to most records-search companies and general individuals.
Your attorney may also refer to this procedure as ‘setting aside’ your criminal conviction. The process varies between states and counties according to a wide variety of criteria.
The point to having your records sealed is that you do not need to disclose your DUI arrest or conviction. A criminal record of any kind often holds a stigma, and you may be treated differently than those without a record.
