California Arrest Record Sealing

If you have an arrest on your record that did not result in a conviction, we can have record of the arrest and any court case removed from your record. Arrests are not legally as serious as convictions, but they can be just as embarrassing and detrimental to job prospects. Once sealed, the entire record, fingerprints, booking photo, and arrest report are sealed and then destroyed. The arrest is treated as if it never occurred. Read more >

California Juvenile Record Sealing

Even though you may have completed your sentence, a juvenile delinquency record can still affect your life. 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. Read more >

California Certificate of Rehabilitation

The ultimate statement by a court that you are now an "honest" person of "good character" who is known to "obey the laws of the land." It tells employers and licensing agencies that you truly have put the past behind you and are ready to reach your potential. Many licensing agencies are prohibited by law from discriminating against you once you receive a certificate of rehabilitation. When the certificate is granted, a recommendation for pardon is sent to the governor. A person cannot apply until at least 7 years after being released from custody-- 9 or 10 years for registered sex offenders. Includes all costs. Read more >
