Consequences for a First-Time DUI Conviction in Las Vegas
Nevada’s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) notes that a first-time DUI conviction may result in:
- Your vehicle being impounded (which you may pay out the nose to retrieve)
- Up to six months in jail
- Community service
- Fines of up to $1,000
- Various fees and penalties
- Mandatory DUI school or substance abuse treatment
- Mandatory attendance at a Victim Impact Panel
- License revocation
- Installation of an Ignition Interlock device in your vehicles
Exaggerating factors like extreme intoxication or the presence of a child in your car could escalate your legal penalties. Simply put, these aren’t consequences that anyone wants to face, and we don’t want you to experience them.
Consequences for Multiple DUI Convictions in Las Vegas
If you’ve been convicted of DUI before and are facing another DUI charge, you might brace for:
- Prison time
- Escalating fines
- Multi-year license suspension
- Other significant legal consequences
The exact penalties you face will depend on how many DUI convictions you have, the span of time in which you’ve incurred those DUI convictions, and other factors specific to your case.
The future can seem bleak if you’re facing a DUI charge, whether it’s your first or not. In addition to legal consequences, a DUI conviction can lead to uncomfortable discussions with prospective employers, lost personal relationships, and difficulty living a fulfilling life.
