Felony Expungement
We can help you expunge criminal records from public view.
Our law firm specializes in Washington felony expungements under RCW 9.94A. 640, allowing us to offer our expert legal services at an affordable fixed price.
Even years after a criminal conviction, a criminal record can interfere with your ability to obtain employment, housing, and professional licenses. Private employers and landlords conduct criminal background checks to see if there have been any charges against you in the past. We help you get your felony convictions vacated by filing with the court an expungement petition on your behalf.
Once granted by the court, this petition sets aside and dismisses your original conviction, allowing you to apply for jobs and apartments with confidence. Once the felony record has been expunged, you will be able to answer legally and honestly that you have never been convicted of a felony on job and housing applications.
Our firm has handled thousands of criminal record expungements. The first step is to find out if you are eligible under the current laws in your state.
