Expunctions
If you have a criminal record in Texas, you probably already know it can have a negative impact on your life. In the age of the Internet, your past mistakes are more accessible to the public than ever. If you were convicted of a misdemeanor or felony in Texas, you may have trouble securing employment, gaining approval for housing and obtaining financial aid for college long after your sentence has been successfully discharged. Even if you were charged with a crime but were not convicted, your arrest may harm your ability to find a job when your potential employers discover it through a criminal background check. Criminal databases are being created everyday aggregating information on people publishing that information for free on the internet.

Thankfully, Texas recognizes that people make mistakes and offers two pathways for people with criminal records to have their records erased entirely or simply hidden from public view: expunction and non-disclosure. These two processes can help to improve your life by removing the barriers that your record poses.
In order to get your record deleted, you must first qualify. Under Texas law, people are able to have their records cleared for arrests that did not lead to convictions, dismissed charges, and certain types of misdemeanors that had deferred adjudications. People who were convicted of offenses and were later pardoned by the governor or the president may also be eligible for expunction. Finally, people who have certain misdemeanor offenses on their juvenile records may also qualify.
As an expunction and nondisclosure lawyer, I’ve helped many people expunge and seal their criminal records, and I may be able to do the same for you. Don’t let your criminal record keep holding you back. Contact me today to see if I can help you expunge or seal your criminal record.
