Does someone in your life have a criminal conviction that's standing between them and the things they want to achieve? Husband can't find a good job because of an old DUI? Daughter can't get into school because of mistakes she made years ago? This holiday season, give someone you love a gift they really need...an expungement!
As I've previously written on this blog. An expungement is California's way of dismissing a case after someone has successfully completed serving his or her penalties. After an expungement is granted, it's like the conviction never happened (for most purposes, some exceptions).
An expungement can dramatically improve your job prospects and your chances of holding various professional licenses or being admitted to a good school. Give someone you love a second chance to accomplish all the things you know they're capable of.
Expungements aren't for everyone. There are several strict criteria that a petitioner must meet in order to earn the expungement. Specifically, it's important that the petitioner:
1) Successfully completed probation. If probation was not granted, petitioner must wait one year from the date of the conviction.
2) Is not currently on probation in any other cases. If the petitioner is still on probation, we might be able to help terminate probation early.
We provide free consultations to help determine whether or not you or your loved one qualifies for an expungement. If you do not qualify, there may be other options available for you. After your consultation, we will prepare all necessary paperwork to begin the process of petitioning for your expungement. The documents are fairly simple, but any small error can result in a denial of the petition. After preparing the documents, we will take care of serving those documents on the prosecutor and properly filing them with the court. We will also appear in court on your behalf for any necessary appearances. In most cases, you do not need to be personally present in court for these hearings (some exceptions may apply).
Call us for your free consultation at 714 505 2468. Thanks for reading.
