Today's world is competitive. The economy is rough. You don't need to carry around baggage from a single bad decision, or from a false accusation later dropped. If you ever arrested for or accused of a serious crime that was later dropped, or if you pled to a crime and adjudication was withheld, you may be entitled to have that charge sealed or expunged from your record. You should contact me for a FREE consultation concerning your rights in this regard.

Both of these things must be true for you to be eligible under Florida law:

• You must not have any conviction* for any criminal offense on your record
• You must not have had a prior expungement or seal

*Certain Florida crimes carry mandatory convictions, such as DUI, and that person may never seek a later seal or expungement.

If you are currently a student at the University of Florida, you should be aware that the UF attorneys at Student Legal Services will currently perform this service for you at no charge. (I will always ask whether you have consulted with SLS before undertaking a matter for a UF student.)

If you would like to get a matter sealed or expunged, please contact me to discuss your options and your eligibility. You may have only one incident or one arrest sealed or expunged. Also, the statutes concerning sealing and expungement detail your legal rights upon receiving a seal or expungement. Also, these statutes list out the occasions when you must reveal the existence of a sealed or expunged record. You should review the statutes for sealing and expungement, and call me at 866-271-8771, before deciding whether to go forward with the process.
