Our attorneys have considerable experience navigating the complexities and nuances of the expungement law. Let us go to bat for you and restore your good name.
Criminal Record Sealment
While the terms seal and expunge are often used interchangeably and both have similar effects, there are distinct differences in the processes for sealing a record and the maintenance of records in law enforcement databases. An expunged records is generally destroyed and not retained by law enforcement agencies, while sealed records are maintained and law enforcement officials may still have access to the information contained in them.
