Because most people have never been arrested for drunk driving, there is a lot of misinformation that circulates about Nevada’s DUI Laws. If you are facing a DUI charge, contact us today for a free initial consultation with a Las Vegas DUI Attorney.
The legal limit for alcohol consumption is .08%. If you are arrested for driving under the influence you will have to deal with two separate proceedings in motion: an administrative DMV case, and your criminal case. Within 7 days of your arrest, you can file a request for a DMV hearing to contest your license suspension. If the administrative case goes well, your license will be reinstated until the results of your criminal trial are in.
If you receive a DUI conviction during your criminal trial, however, your license will be re-suspended. Once this happens, you will be able to have it reinstated after an assigned amount of time. You will have to provide proof of SR-22 insurance, and you may have to take a driving skills test if your license was suspended for more than a year.
Depending on the circumstances surrounding your arrest, and whether or not you have prior convictions, the court may decide to sentence you to probation, community service, or house arrest.
