California Expungements
Expungement: It's Time for a New Future! ©
We all make mistakes. We all do things we are ashamed or embarrassed by. But when that mistake results in a criminal record, it can destroy your hopes for the future. In today's economy, just one criminal conviction can make it hard to find employment or advance in your career. It weighs you down, destroys your hope, or just eats away at you with fear and embarrassment.

Our Expungement Process & Our Results
Here's exactly what we do: We go to court, re-open your old criminal case, and ask the judge to withdraw your old plea of guilty (or no contest), and enter a new plea of NOT GUILTY. We then ask the judge to DISMISS your case. This is known as an expungement.
The Result: Once your conviction is expunged, you can lawfully answer that you have never been convicted of the crime. For government jobs, licenses, and law enforcement questions, you will need to disclose the case, but you can note "Case dismissed pursuant to California Penal Code, section 1203.4.")
How long does it take? In most cases we can file your expungement petition in court within 3 or 4 days of obtaining your case information. The judge usually holds a hearing about 45 days after we file. Of course, these times vary from expungement to expungement and from court to court. Rest assured we do everything possible to speed your expungement along, but we never cut corners.
Our Expungement Prices
Each person's case is different, and expungements vary in complexity. Firms that charge a single fee are forced to cut corners and treat clients like cookie-cutter customers. We're different. We treat you like a member of our family, not like a customer in a virtual mall. With 20 years of expungement experience, we've streamlined the process and know how to reduce costs, but our number one concern is winning your expungement case, and making your future the best that it can possibly be.
Our prices vary based on your criminal history, the county of conviction, and specifics of your particular expungement, but we start every single case with a $95 criminal record review and expungement plan. With your personalized expungement review in hand, you will know the exact price to have us handle your expungement from start to finish & we put that in writing.
How to Start Your Expungement
We begin all expungement cases by obtaining and reviewing our client's official California criminal record as maintained by the California Department of Justice. (Watch out for 'record erasing' websites that want to take your case without even seeing your official record.) Obtaining your official criminal record is like getting an X-ray before doing surgery, plus it's very important to make sure that it doesn't contain any errors before we go into court. This process can save you lots of money and time in the long run.
