Your Sacramento Expungement Attorney and Bay Area Expungement Attorney

If you're looking for a new start or are simply trying to obtain a job but your misdemeanor or felony conviction makes it difficult, you should apply for an expungement. An expungement is a petition to the court to dismiss your prior conviction and seal the records. While an expungement will not erase criminal history, it will update it to show that the charges have been expunged. A California employer cannot legally deny employement based on any convictions that have been expunged. Also, in most cases, an expungement will enable you to once again legally and truthfully check the "no convictions" box on an employment aplication.
