How a DUI Can Affect Your Life (and How to Fight Back) a DUI Arrest

DUI = More Than Just a Court Date

A DUI conviction doesn’t just cost you money—it can cost you your license, your job, and your future. Here’s what’s at stake—and what you can do about it.

License Suspension

Most states suspend your license automatically after a DUI arrest—even before your court date.

Tip: You have a limited window (usually 10–30 days) to request a hearing.

Employment Risks

Some employers terminate workers with DUIs, especially in healthcare, government, or jobs that require driving.

We can help minimize this risk by negotiating reduced charges or expungement.

Higher Insurance Rates

Your insurance premiums may double—or even triple.

Fighting the charge early can prevent long-term financial pain.

Criminal Record

A DUI leaves a permanent mark—unless it’s dismissed or expunged.We often help clients qualify for diversion programs or expungement.

The Good News?

You have legal options. And many first-time offenders don’t end up with a conviction—if they get help fast.
