When you need your record expunged, consult an experienced Criminal Record Expungement Attorney In New Jersey.Criminal Record Expungement Attorney In New Jersey

If you have an old criminal conviction, save yourself the embarrassment and loss of opportunities that can result from having it on your record.

As a Criminal Record Expungement Attorney In New Jersey, I can help clear your record with an expungement.

What happens when my New Jersey Criminal Record is expunged?

Essentially, when your criminal record is expunged, it’s like it never happened. Records of your arrest, conviction, warrants, and court documents are technically isolated/segregated. So if someone does a criminal background check on you, it will return “No Record”.

You can legally deny any criminal record in virtually every situation after your record is expunged (with the exception of applying for law enforcement positions). You will also be eligible to possess a gun/firearm.

When am I Eligible to have My Record Expunged?

  • 10 years after a criminal/indictable offense/felony charge
  • 5 years after a disorderly persons offense (misdemeanor)
  • 2 years after a town ordinance offense

Some serious charges such as murder or distribution of drugs cannot be expunged, and the rules are complicated. Call me, an experienced Criminal Record Expungement Attorney In New Jersey, for details if you aren’t sure.

I have years of experience in helping people just like you clear and expunge their criminal records. If you have a charge you’d like to get off your record, call or email me for a free consultation now.

Sincerely,

Matthew Reisig, Attorney at Law
