Expungement Attorney Seminole County Florida We can Help you Erase or Seal your Criminal Record

If you are merely arrested in Florida, that arrest record — even without formal charges — can follow you around and silently damage your future prospects. As records have become more computerized, there is a growing awareness of the unfairness of this. Florida has provided a legal process for erasing certain records. Expungement means that your record will be sealed. If your record is expunged, very few people will ever have the right to view your record. You will never need to admit your arrest to anyone else. An expunged record can only be viewed for the following reasons:

• You apply for a job in law enforcement.You apply for a job involving direct contact with children.
• Nearly everyone else will be unaware of your arrest if your record has been expunged.

A Dismissed Charge Can Affect Your Whole Life

“The internet drives most expungement cases. It seems that you can find out anything, about anyone, online. All the public records are available online. This exposure affects your whole life — whether someone will rent to you or not, your credit, your ability to get a job. It affects whether you are able to volunteer at your child’s school – that arrest record can affect everything.
If you had a charge that was dismissed long ago, the charge is still there, and just seeing the charge is enough for many decision-makers. Then you have to try to convince your employer that no, I wasn’t convicted of armed robbery. I got arrested, it was dismissed — it was a misidentification. You see how you might not be able to convince them of that. Expungement is an intricate process, and you’ve got to make sure it’s done correctly, to make sure the records are all sealed, destroyed. It is a complicated process, but we do it all the time.”
