Northern Virginia DUI Expungement

DUI Expungements in Fairfax, Fauquier or Prince William County?

A DUI is a criminal charge in Virginia and as such is not easily removed from your record.  The knowledge that your employers or landlords and others have access to the facts of your criminal DUI records can often ill effect your life and the idea of expungement of those records can offer great relief and avoid the repercussions to your personal and professional reputation.  Unfortunately, there are only certain situations where expungement has been achieved in Virginia. 

There are processes to follow in the pursuit of expungement of a DUI including the filing of petitions to the necessary circuit court with all applicable information. As part of the process it is also necessary that you file a copy of your fingerprints to the CCRE or Central Criminal Records Exchange. A court hearing is held by the circuit court to review the petition and other documents from the arrest and consider the matter. 

It takes an attorney with knowledge and experience in this field to successfully pursue the removal of a DUI charge from someone's record.  Contact a Northern Virginia DUI lawyer at Law Offices of Michael A. Pignone to obtain the professional assistance you need to pursue the expungement of your record.   Then, if the expungement is granted as requested then no person will have access to the fact of the arrest for the DUI.  This would include employers, universities and landlords.
