An arrest for DUI in the county results in two separate aspects of your case. The first is a Kansas county DUI administrative case that may result in the suspension of your driving privileges.

Other Kansas Resources
There are a variety of special problems that arise following a drunk driving, DUI, or DWI arrest. It may be necessary to use a bail bondsman to help a friend or loved one gain release from custody. Renting a car may be difficult (although we know of several companies that will do so), as is getting car insurance. There may be a requirement to attend special alcohol programs, or AA meetings.
Expungement of criminal records
Expungement of criminal records can be a complex process, and the ability to clean up past criminal convictions depends upon many different factors. The law relating to expunging criminal convictions varies from state to state. In Kansas, a DUI conviction or diversion may be expunged if five years have passed since the applicant completed probation or diversion. It is a civil proceeding filed in the county in which the alleged offense occurred. It is important that you consult with a lawyer that is skilled in matters pertaining to expungement.
