DUI Expungement
Remove an OWI/DUI From Your Record
Can a DUI be expunged from your record? YES!
You can request expungement of up to three felony offenses and an unlimited number of eligible misdemeanors, thanks to the Michigan “Clean Slate” legislation that became effective in 2022. That means you can remove a DUI from your criminal record whether it’s a first offense or even if it’s a super drunk DUI. An experienced expungement lawyer gives you the best chance at successful expungement.
However, the expungement process is unfortunately not a simple one. A small error in paperwork or process can result in a denial, and you won’t be eligible to reapply for at least three years. This is why you should never start down the path of cleaning your record without an experienced expungement lawyer by your side.
Benefits of DUI Expungement
Did you know that a DUI (also called an ‘OWI’ in the state of Michigan) stays on your record forever unless you get it expunged. You can apply for expungement five years from the end of your probationary period. Expunging a DUI from your record has a life-changing impact on your employment, lifestyle, and future.
Here are the main benefits of expungement:
- Better sense of self and peace of mind
- Lower car insurance rates
- Higher wages due to more employment opportunities
- Helps you maintain your driver’s license
- Better housing opportunities, due to a clean criminal record
- Better student loan availability and options
- Eligibility for concealed pistol license (CPL)
