Under certain conditions, Mississippi law allows expungement of a first-offense DUI conviction. You must meet specific eligibility requirements including completion of all court-ordered conditions and a waiting period. We can review your case and handle the petition process.

A first-offense DUI can result in fines ranging from $250 to $1,000, up to 48 hours in jail, and driver’s license suspension for up to one year. Penalties increase significantly for subsequent offenses.
