Expungements

Certain convictions are eligible for expungement in Pennsylvania.  The ability to have a record expunged can be an important step in allowing one to put a criminal record behind him/her when it is prohibiting advancement in the work force, obtaining housing, or countless other things.  Upon the granting of an expungement, the records related to the criminal conviction will no longer be maintained by the agencies listed in the order for expungement (except for certain limited agencies and situations).  Proceeding in this manner, allows you to have the peace of mind knowing that the records will not be following you as you move forward with your life.
