Minneapolis Expungement Lawyer

Do you have a criminal record?

Do you have a prior criminal matter that is haunting you?  Do you wish you could get out from under the damaging implications of any prior criminal acts?  You may have legal options available to you such as expungement, which is a court order that seals criminal records.  It prohibits the disclosure of their existence or opening except under court order or statutory authority.  When your criminal record has been expunged, any information they contained is no longer available for public scrutiny.  Depending on certain circumstances, an expungement may allow you to answer the question "Have you ever been convicted of a felony?" with "no."

The expungement process is complicated and not everyone qualifies to have their records sealed.  Many factors govern whether a court can and will grant someone an expungement of their criminal misdeeds, including whether the arrest resulted in a conviction, the type of crime that was committed, and any sentencing provisions.

If you have a criminal record and would like more information on expungement, contact a Minneapolis criminal defense attorney from The Law Offices of William K. Bulmer II.  My firm is fully prepared to review, advise and handle the expungement of your criminal record.   We can provide you with the guidance and legal counsel you will need to manage your way through the entire expungement process.

Criminal records are kept by city, county and state law enforcement agencies, as well as the court and District Attorney's Office.  These records contain complete data on any offenses you have been charged with, including:

• The type of crime you were charged with
• Details of the crime that was committed
• When the charge occurred
• The court where the case was heard
• The data of the conviction of dismissal
• Sentencing information

These records can be accessed and read by the public at the county courthouse.  If you are troubled by your prior legal difficulties, it is important to speak to an experienced attorney from my firm that can explain how the expungement process works and evaluate whether or not your records can be expunged.
