Sacramento Expengement Attorney

California offers the possibility to have certain misdemeanor and felony convictions. Not everyone is eligible. In evaluating a person's petition to have their record expunged, courts look to factors such as how much time has passed since the conviction, how that person has behaved since the date of conviction, and any evidence that the person has been rehabilitated.

A Sacramento expungement attorney can assist you in this process. While some may say there is no difference between the doer and their deed, and while we may even agree, it still is true that we are the sum of all of our deeds. You are more than just a few bad choices made a long time ago. At Schwartz APC, we believe that people's pasts should not be used as a permanent Scarlet Letter to brand them as "less than" for the rest of their lives.

The law provides a pathway for individuals to permanently seal or erase certain convictions. A Sacramento expungement attorney can tell your story and assist you with your petition.

During your free consultation, we will ask you some initial questions to determine both your eligibility and whether it makes sense for us to represent you. Recently, California has expanded the eligibility for expungement, so even if you were told you were ineligible before 2023, that may not be true now.

Generally speaking, it permanently seals and erases your conviction. There may be some instances where you have to disclose the prior conviction, such as when applying for certain professional licenses, but generally you can deny ever having been convicted of the expunged offense.
