Seal or Expunge A Criminal Record:
If you, a child, family member, or anyone close to you has ever been arrested, convicted, or both; then you know how difficult the consequences can be later on in life. Often times it can hinder progress for those who are trying to move on and improve their lives. Landlords may deny leasing or renting and employers may skip over your application for someone with a clean record. In some cases, the opportunity may exist to seal or expunge your criminal record.
Florida law provides an option for qualifying individuals to have certain criminal arrest records sealed or expunged if those records stem from a single arrest or incident.
- If you had a Withhold of Adjudication, you are able to get a charge sealed/expunged.
- You are not able to get a charge sealed/expunged if you have been Adjudicated Guilty.
