If you are not facing any current charges or on probation for another offense and your sentence did not involve state prison (as opposed to county jail), California allows you to have your conviction expunged after you complete your probation. If you were not placed on probation, you can have your record expunged one year after your conviction.* See list below for certain sex offenses and high speed pursuit convictions that cannot be expunged.
Expungement allows you to honestly and legally say you have not been convicted of a crime.
If your conviction was a felony that is eligible to be reduced to a misdemeanor, we will include that in the process at no extra charge.
We handle all aspects of the case for you and pay all filing fees for one flat-fee— and we offer a money back guarantee. Misdemeanors are $495** in most counties and felonies are $725. We offer a low-price guarantee and will beat any advertised price by $50.
