Do DUIs Show Up on Background Checks?

There is no cut-and-dry answer regarding what information will be revealed by a background check. If you’ve previously been convicted of DUI and you’re concerned about an upcoming background check, you may wish to visit a criminal law office in La Plata and discuss the matter with an attorney at law. Your criminal lawyer can inform you of the applicable state laws and offer legal advice.

As you’ll learn by watching this video, the extent of the information revealed by a background check can vary greatly. However, it’s generally advisable to answer questions about your past truthfully. Trying to conceal a prior felony may eliminate your chances of securing employment, credit, or a professional license. Additionally, you may also need to hire a criminal lawyer again because concealing the truth may result in legal trouble.
