"Thank you very much for all of your help. You have been just wonderful and I appreciate everything that you have done for me during this process." - Al R.

New Jersey Felony ExpungementTitle 2C The New Jersey Code of Criminal Justice - 2C:52-2 
New Jersey allows for the expungement of certain offenses. Once the case is expunged then the information will no longer appear, except in limited circumstances, and will not show on background checks.
New Jersey allows for the expungement of indictable offenses (felonies) depending on the crime. Certain crimes may not be expunged (generally these include sex crimes, murder, manslaughter, arson, crimes against children, robbery, sale of hard drugs, and other crimes).
Indictable offenses are similar to what other states classify as felony convictions.
In order to expunge an indictable offense conviction the following requirements must be met:
- 10 years have passed since completion of probation, incarceration and payment of fines (whichever is latest)
- No pending charges are against you
- Must not be convicted of another crime in New Jersey or another state (okay if the other conviction and the case you want expunged constituted a single event)
- Cannot have 3 or more disorderly or petty disorderly violations against you
- Must not have ever been granted dismissal of charges through pre-trial intervention (does not include disorderly or petty disorderly offenses)
- Must not have had any criminal offense expunged in New Jersey or another state
However, motor vehicle offenses, including DUIs, are not eligible for expungement. Once the arrest and case are expunged then the information will no longer appear, except in limited circumstances, and will not show on background checks. You can read more about the service in the Frequently Asked Questions.
- Tell employers that you were not convicted of a crime
- Become eligible for some professional licenses

Do I have to disclose it ever?
Once an arrest or conviction has been expunged, you can deny it as though it never existed. However, if you are seeking employment with any court or any law enforcement or corrections agency, you must disclose the conviction.
Will it still show up on my background check?
No. Once an offense has been expunged, state agencies in New Jersey that have records of the offense may not release it to anyone. The records can only be accessed under very limited circumstances. The law will treat the arrest or conviction as though it never occurred under most circumstances.
How long does the process take?
Typically, five to six months.
