Criminal “Expungement” in Minnesota is the process of going to court to ask a Judge to seal a criminal record. When a record is sealed, it does not show up in a criminal background check of the courts records. If you can show that you have made real changes in your life, that you are a different person now, and that it is very unlikely that you will not commit another crime, the court may expunge your conviction. It is important to note that even when the court grants an expungement of a conviction in Minnesota, records that are kept by some agencies, including the BCA (Bureau of Criminal Apprehension), might not be expunged. This is important because the BCA is the most common place to check if a person has a criminal background. However, a person searches the court records, and the conviction was expunged, they will not be able to see the records of the expunged case.
With more than 80 percent of employers conducting background checks, expungement is a great investment.
The typical case in Minnesota takes about 4 to 5 months. The courts operate on a first-come, first-served basis, so the sooner you start, the sooner your record is cleared.
Our flat-fee includes all costs. We will conduct the research, file the necessary motions, respond to written or oral opposition from the District attorney, and send one of our attorneys to court to argue the case in front of the judge.
In most cases, you will not have to physically appear in court. You can let us handle all the work, while you track the progress of your case online.
We serve all of Minnesota and offer a low-price. Trust us to make sure you get a great deal and the maximum amount of relief.
Our exclusive Expedited Criminal Database Update service allows us to have the leading background check companies reflect changes to your criminal record in less than 14 days, instead of months and even years like our competitors.
