Each person’s situation is different. Some people have slight blemishes, such as a basic misdemeanor conviction or a case dismissal. Some people have a lengthier and more complex history than others. Other people’s situation requires preliminary work to modify convictions, and other action needs to be taken to meet the legal criteria to qualify for an expungement.
If your case involves multiple counties, the time it takes to collect documents, draft multiple petitions, and address complications can increase significantly. There may also be a lengthy delay after the filing to allow the prosecutor’s office to respond, notify victims, and for the judge to review the petition and make any necessary decisions. After an individual case evaluation, we can provide a more accurate estimate of completion time.
