Southern California Expungement Attorney

A criminal conviction on your permanent record can lead to a number of adverse effects in your life. Employers, banks, and schools typically look down upon a criminal conviction, making it extremely difficult for convicted offenders to find or keep a job, obtain a loan, earn a professional degree or certificate, and rent or buy a house. If you have a criminal conviction on your record, Orange County expungement attorney Mark Devore can help.

Expungement is the process of dismissing or removing a prior criminal conviction from your permanent record. If you plead “guilty,” “no contest,” or were found guilty by a jury, an expungement will permanently set aside your conviction and reflect that a plea of “not guilty” was made instead. It should be noted that although expungments are a good way to clear a conviction from your record, they do not completely erase or destroy the conviction. The conviction and facts surrounding your case still remain in your file. However, after a successful expungement your name will be cleared in the public record, and you can legally say, with a few exceptions, that you have not had any convictions on your record.
