Why it matters in Nevada
What a dwi / dui costs in Nevada
- Typical fine
- $400–$1,000 first offense, plus assessments and program costs
- License points
- No demerit points — DUI triggers direct license revocation instead
- Insurance impact
- A DUI conviction commonly doubles Nevada premiums and requires an SR-22 filing for 3 years.
- License risk
- First offense: 2 days to 6 months jail (or community service), a 185-day license revocation, DUI school, and a victim impact panel; ignition interlock allows driving during revocation.
Frequently asked questions
What happens to my license after a Nevada DUI arrest?
The DMV moves to revoke your license for 185 days independent of the criminal case, and you have only 7 days after receiving the revocation notice to request a DMV hearing. That deadline is the first reason to talk to an attorney immediately.
Why do DUI cases start with a consultation instead of a quoted fee?
Because a DUI defense can't be scoped before the evidence is reviewed — the stop, the field sobriety tests, the breath or blood draw, and Nevada's two-hour rule all shape the case. A licensed Nevada attorney will evaluate your facts first, then discuss what the defense requires.
I'm a tourist who got a DUI in Las Vegas. Can this be handled without me flying back?
In many misdemeanor DUI cases a Nevada attorney can appear for you at most proceedings, sparing repeated trips. Start with a consultation so counsel can confirm what your specific court allows.
Can a first Nevada DUI be reduced or dismissed?
Sometimes — reductions to reckless driving happen, and defective stops or blood-draw procedure violations can lead to suppression. Whether those openings exist in your case is what the initial review is for.
Can I keep driving after a Nevada DUI?
Nevada allows ignition interlock licensing that keeps most first offenders legally driving through the revocation period. An attorney can set that up while the criminal case is defended.
