Can a DWI or DUI conviction be expunged in Houston, Texas?

The DWI or DUI conviction you get on your record when you are 22 years old will be on your record forever. Texas does not allow A DWI or DUI conviction to be expunged.

The only way to keep a DWI or DUI off of your record is to receive a “not guilty” verdict or have your charges dismissed by the prosecution. Even then, you’ll have to file a petition for expungement in the District Court of the county in which you were charged in order for it to be permanently removed from your record.

Do you want the company considering you for a job against 50 other applicants to discover that you have a DWI or DUI in your past? Just another reason that you must consider hiring an attorney for your Houston DUI or DWI charge.
