What is Expungement?
Expungement is a legal process that allows eligible individuals to have their criminal records erased or sealed from public view. This means that the record of your past arrest, charges, or convictions will no longer be accessible to employers, landlords, or the general public. Essentially, it allows you to move forward without the burden of your criminal history.
What Does a Record Expungement Do?
A record expungement offers several significant benefits,including:
- Improved Employment Opportunities: Many employers conduct background checks on potential employees. With an expunged record, you can apply for jobs without fearing your criminal history affecting your chances of getting hired.
- Enhanced Housing Prospects: Landlords often screen applicants' criminal histories before renting out properties. Expunging your record can help you secure housing without facing discrimination due to your past.
- Restored Reputation: Expungement allows you to regain your reputation and self-worth. It allows you to move beyond your past mistakes and rebuild your life.
- Peace of Mind: The constant worry of your criminal record being discovered can be emotionally draining. Expunging your record can provide peace of mind and relief from the stress associated with your past.
