Don't Let The Past Hold You Back
Criminal charges stay with you wherever you go and can hurt your chances for a new job and a better life. At The Umansky Law Firm we will work to clear your criminal record, essentially giving you a second chance and the ability to move on with your life.
Don’t let your past cause you to miss out on future opportunities. If you have criminal charges that never resulted in a conviction, we can help seal and expunge your record to protect your reputation and career. An arrest can negatively impact your life in many ways. If you were not aware, your criminal record is considered Florida public record and can be viewed by anyone, even if you were never convicted. Almost every new employer will access this information when you apply, as well as housing and educational directors.
Fortunately, Florida law allows for you to seal or expunge your record, but you must take action. Sealing and expungment are two different processes, but both allow a person to remove a past arrest or criminal charge. With the help of an attorney, you a record sealing may be granted and the file would be removed from public access. However, if you were to expunge the record, the file would be destroyed.
To begin, we must verify you are eligible for record sealing or expungement. You will need to complete the required application and provide your fingerprint. Florida Department of Law Enforcement will then run a background check and determine if you qualify.
After you have been determined eligible we will immediately begin all the necessary paperwork to ensure your records can be sealed or expunged as quickly as possible. On average, the sealing and expungement process takes several months to complete. Therefore, it is imperative to start the process as soon as you are able. We will walk you through each step and simplify the often-overwhelming bureaucratic requirements associated with getting your records sealed.
