After your husband’s DUI in Los Angeles, California, your auto insurance policy could be under legal threat. The first thing that you need to do now is to contact your auto insurance agent and tell them about your husband’s DUI. You also need to go over your policy clauses because it would most likely have your husband added to it. You can tell you auto insurance provider that you’d want a review of your current insurance policy.
You may also ask to exclude the name of your husband from the current auto insurance policy. Some US states have mandatory laws regarding the insurance of married couples. Normally, they require adding the spouse so you need to check if you are eligible for exclusions in California. You also need to be sure that your husband doesn’t drive the vehicle under the renewed auto insurance policy with the exclusion because you would not get coverage under any conditions. Be prepared to pay higher insurance rates on your current policy if you are not eligible for exclusions
