Juvenile records show as part of your criminal history and they can cost you job opportunities, cause you embarrassment, and have other harmful affects. Sealing your records can prevent these harmful consequences.
Sealing means that records held by the police department, the court, the district attorney, and the probation department will be sealed and treated as if they never existed. If someone asks these agencies about a sealed record, the law requires the agencies to answer, "we have no record of that matter." The law says that you can legally say that you were not adjudicated or arrested
We handle all aspects of the process and pay all fees for a flat-fee of $750.
