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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
