  • Does an Expungement Erase My Record?

    The time it takes for an expungement to be complete (accepted by the courts), depends on the District Court that you are filing in. Expungements can take between 8-12 months. In some situations, it can take longer. When having an attorney file your expungement for you, you can rest assure that your attorney will keep up with the process of your expungements, and update you on any new information.
