If you are applying for a job, a loan, a place to live or to college, it is likely that you will have to submit to a background check. The information on background checks tells prospective employers, lenders, landlords or schools about your creditworthiness and dependability by disclosing such information as:
Your employment history
Your credit history
Your criminal record
Although many people are charged with DWI in North Carolina each year, having this charge or a conviction on your record could be a red flag on a background check. And if you have more than one DWI or drug-related charge, it is even less likely that you will be approved for the job, loan, home or education you’re hoping to obtain.
Clearing Your Record
In some cases, it may be possible to have a DWI expunged or erased from a person’s record so that it will not show up on any subsequent background checks. To find out if this could be an option for you, schedule a free consultation with the Floyd Law Offices today.
