Clear Up Your Criminal Record
Many of our clients are first time offenders who are charged with misdemeanors. These clients are often able to have their charges dismissed if they comply with a judgment issued by the court. Even though the charges have been dismissed, the fact that you were charged remains on your criminal record unless you have it expunged.
An Expungement lets you wipe the slate clean and put the mistake behind you. The Expungement is the process of deleting or sealing records so that members of the public are no longer able to do a background check and discover a charge in which you were not convicted. Pursuant to N.C. Law, if you have a charged expunged, you are not required to ever reveal it on any type of job or college application.
Only certain Defendants qualify for an expungement. In North Carolina, you can ONLY expunge misdemeanors convictions that occurred before you turned 18 or charges in which you were not convicted.
