An expungement legally removes certain criminal records from public view, giving you the chance to live without the burden of past convictions affecting your life.
Eligibility depends on several factors including the nature of the offense, time elapsed, and your Missouri criminal history. We evaluate each case carefully to determine your options.
The timeline varies but generally takes a few months from filing to court decision, depending on court schedules and case complexity.
We work diligently to expedite the process and keep you informed every step of the way to reduce stress and uncertainty.
Expungement seals your record from public access but may not erase it entirely from all governmental databases.
Nonetheless, it significantly improves your opportunities for employment, housing, and other civil rights.
While self-application is possible, the legal process can be complex and mistakes may lead to delays or denials.
Professional legal guidance increases the likelihood of a successful outcome and helps navigate procedural requirements effectively.
Costs vary based on case specifics, court fees, and attorney services.
We provide transparent consultations to discuss all potential expenses upfront so you can make informed decisions.
After expungement, most background checks will not reveal the expunged records to employers or landlords.
Certain government agencies may retain access, but for everyday purposes, your record should appear clean.
