On January 29, 2009, a new summary offense expungement law went into effect in Pennsylvania. The law allows for people convicted of a summary offense to have their conviction expunged as long as they were not arrested or prosecuted during the five years after the conviction for the summary offense. A summary offense is not a misdemeanor or felony. Examples of summary offenses are underage drinking, retail theft and obstruction of the highway.
With more than 80 percent of employers conducting background checks, expunging the conviction is a great investment. See the Benefits section for more benefits.
The typical case in Pennsylvania takes about 6 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 Pennsylvania and offer a low-price and money back guarantee. 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.
