For a Sealing or Expunction in Florida Know Your Options and Your Rights
If you have been arrested, charged with or sentenced on a criminal charge in the State of Florida, that record can become a barrier to accomplishing long-term goals. The law provides a pathway to clearing your record of certain eligible misdemeanor and felony convictions.
When you call our office for information and support in sealing or expunging and record clearing, we can give you a realistic expectation about what options are available to you. We will review your criminal history and, if you are eligible, help you seek record-clearing options.
Certain criminal convictions are not eligible for expungement or sealing, such as child abuse, elder abuse and other violent felonies. However most other criminal convictions, such as drug possession and theft crimes, are eligible if you have not been adjudicated guilty and you have maintained a clean record over a mandated period of time after complying with any penalties associated with your conviction.
The best way to find out specific information regarding your individual case is to contact our attorney.
