A DUI makes insurance harder to find — but not impossible. We work with carriers who specialize in high-risk drivers and get you covered fast.
A DUI conviction in Washington triggers immediate consequences: your current insurer may cancel your policy, the state requires an SR-22 filing, and your premiums will increase significantly. Many standard insurance companies will decline to write you at all.
Universal Insurance Services specializes in exactly this situation. We work with specialty carriers who write DUI policies, file your SR-22 electronically with the Washington DOL, and get you back on the road as quickly as possible.
Your current insurer may cancel or non-renew your policy. They are not required to keep you, and many won't.
The state requires your insurer to file an SR-22 certificate with the DOL proving you carry minimum liability coverage. You must maintain it for 3 years.
A DUI is one of the highest-risk flags an insurer can see. Expect significant rate increases compared to a standard policy.
Your license may be suspended. You'll need to resolve the suspension and have an SR-22 on file before you can legally drive again.
