A Fresh Start
A previous felony or other criminal offense can affect a person's life on various levels including future employment opportunities and locations to live. Expungements and nondisclosures are legal processes that "erase" or tightly seal your previous conviction and can result in a new beginning and a fresh start in life. However, not everyone qualifies for an expungement or a nondisclosure — there are specific requirements that need to be met in order to obtain one of them.
The nature of the conviction, and requirements including deferred adjudication and a successfully completed probationary period, will often determine eligibility.
Board certified and with extensive trial experience, Dallas expungement lawyer Sindhu M. Alexander is able to provide valuable information, guidance and navigation throughout each legal process. Contact our office today for more information on how we can help you.
Expunge Criminal Record in North Texas
An expungement is a legal process that completely eliminates the criminal offense from your record while a nondisclosure seals it from being viewed by the public. A petition for nondisclosure keeps the criminal record sealed from the public yet can be accessed by authorities in the event that you become the subject of future investigation.
Employers are allowed to base some of their hiring decisions on the potential employees' criminal records. With an expungement, the criminal offense is completely removed from the individual's record, and with a nondisclosure it is inaccessible to the public. Both of these legal processes can be extremely helpful in improving your chances of obtaining better employment and living standards.
