Crimimal Record Expungement

Getting a fresh start, like a good job or good housing, is hard to do with a criminal record.

The state of Minnesota allows expungement (sealing) of criminal records under limited circumstances if a Minnesota court finds that you have reformed your life and that it is unlikely you will commit another crime.

Once your record is expunged, you may thereafter legally state that you were never arrested, charged, or accused of a crime. In the eyes of the law, the entire incident never occurred. In most situations, an expungement restores you to the status you held before being arrested or charged.

In Minnesota, while often difficult and sometimes unlikely, expungement is possible for:

  • Minnesota Criminal Cases That Ended In Your Favor
  • Minnesota Criminal Cases That Ended Not In Your Favor
  • Minnesota Arrest Records
  • Minnesota Convictions
  • Minnesota Diversion Cases
  • Free Initial Consultation
