3 Professional Fields in Which a DUI is Problematic
Allegations of driving under the influence, or a conviction on a DUI charge, can have severe and long-lasting effects on an individual’s life. Though the possibility of incarceration or the loss of driving privileges may seem to be the most pressing concern, the reality is that this has the potential to severely disrupt one’s professional career.
If you have been charged with DUI and are intending to pursue a career in which moral character or drinking habits are likely to be considered in employment decisions, you simply cannot afford to take any chances.

DUI Disruption
A DUI conviction can greatly impact your professional life, especially if you have or hope to secure jobs in the following professional fields:
- Driving Career – you can lose your commercial driver’s license for an alcohol-related driving violation, and it can be difficult to secure a position with a DUI on your record.
- Military Career – in many cases, the military has a strict policy against any DUI or DWI convictions and may even reject a candidate for the U.S. Armed Forces for a DUI charge.
- Legal Career – a DUI charge can make it difficult for a would-be law student to gain admission to law school, and even upon completion of law school, a DUI conviction might prevent him or her from being granted admitted to the state bar.
