California “Expungement”

Apply NOW!

You have been convicted of a crime…

That fact does not make you a bad person and it should not have to follow you for the rest of your life! That’s why at The Law Office of David J. Givot, clearing your good name is serious business. If you have successfully completed probation, you may be able to have the crime expunged from your record.

What Does it Mean to Have Your Record Expunged?

An expungement in California state court generally refers to the process of withdrawing a guilty plea or verdict and then having the case dismissed. This criminal record clearing removes the crime from your record and permits you to deny having been convicted of a crime in most all circumstances.

Expungement cases can be complex so it is important to contact a lawyer who knows how to navigate the paperwork and procedure; from filing the initial motion to representing your cause at a hearing with the court where you were convicted of the crime.

Helping You Put Your Life back Together

Many people don’t even know that they have the option of having their records cleaned up. There are clearly some advantages to doing so. Perhaps most importantly, you get to answer “no” on job applications, and anywhere else the issue may arise, to questions about whether you have been convicted of a crime.

In addition, David J. Givot can help clients with early termination of probation. If you have served a substantial portion of your probation term and successfully completed all of the requirements of your probation, you may be eligible to apply for early termination. We can help!
