Is Expungement For You?

If you've pled guilty or been found guilty of a non-indictable offense, that fact is on your permanent criminal record.  In most instances, after awaiting the statutorily prescribed time,you would be eligible to apply for expungement of your criminal record and have that judicial finding erased from your record.

In order to obtain expungement of your record, a Petition for Expungement must be filed with the Court and multiple local and state law enforcement agencies must be alerted to your application.  If no objection is received by the Court from any law enforcement agencies, then your expungement application will be approved and, from the point that the expungement order is signed, you will be able to answer "no" to any question asking if you've ever pled guilty or been convicted of a crime.

Expungement is an efficient way to remove a stain on your personal record that likely resulted from the indiscretion of youth or one bone-headed adult brain fart.  That blemish doesn't have to stay with you the rest of your life.  Expunge your past and plunge forward towards a law-abiding future!
