Expunction in Fort Worth, Tarrant County & surrounding Areas

An Expunction is a valuable tool which enables a person with a criminal history to have his or her reputation restored by having the arrest or charge removed from their record. It is as though it never even happened.

I frequently get calls from people who had a criminal case get dismissed years ago; however, after applying for a job, they were turned down due to their criminal history. They were under the impression that since their case had been dismissed, it would not appear on their record. They were incorrect. (It should be that way, but it's not.) In order for the record to be cleared, it must be expunged.

The law allows for expunctions under certain circumstances, and an expunction proceeding is required. Anyone who has had a criminal case dismissed, no-billed by the grand jury, or found "not guilty" should explore whether their case is eligible for expunction.
