Expungements Attorney in Morristown
Sealing Your Criminal Record to the Public Eye
If you were arrested or convicted for a crime, the consequences can be much more far-reaching than the immediate penalties. Convictions make many parts of life more difficult, such as pursuing secondary education, obtaining employment, and finding housing. Fortunately, it is possible to have your record sealed from the public eye. This process is known as expungement and The Law Offices of Joseph S. Scura may be able to help you pursue sealing your past conviction or arrest.
To learn more about the process, contact a Morristown expungement lawyer at (973) 832-0841.
Am I Eligible for Expungement?
Working with a lawyer is a smart step to take if you are thinking about expunging your record. With an expansive knowledge of the law, we know which offenses can or cannot be expunged and we won't waste any of your time if your record cannot be sealed.
