The criminal case may lead to jail, community service, vehicle impoundment, fines, mandatory alcohol education classes and attendance at a Victim Impact Panel. A conviction for driving under the influence in Nevada would result in a criminal arrest record. Increasingly, employers, especially casinos and the Las Vegas entertainment venues, are performing criminal background checks before hiring. It is important to protect your future by fighting the DUI charges against you and keeping your record clean.
The DMV can suspend a first time offender's drivers license for 90 days.
