Is a DUI on your record forever?
This means the conviction will no longer be part of your record. However, just because a conviction is no longer part of your criminal record, it doesn’t mean all records of it disappear completely. The conviction will still be noted on your criminal history and may be disclosed in some circumstances.
Does DUI go away after 10 years?
Besides all of the legal trouble that can come with a DUI, your driving record is blemished. A DUI stays on your driving record for five to 10 years in most states. In most states, a DUI stays on your criminal record for life, unless you get the charge reduced, deferred, expunged or sealed.
Is it worth it to expunge a DUI?
No, there is absolutely no disadvantage to expunging your DUI conviction. Having the DUI removed from your criminal record will only help you in your life. The only negative would be the relatively small costs associated with hiring a professional to help you with the DUI expungement process.
