California Pardon Attorney
Obtaining a Governor's Pardon in California
Most people who think that they need a California pardon actually need an expungement rather than a pardon. That's actually good, because the odds of receiving a governor's pardon are very low, whereas thousands of expungements are granted each year. However, for some people - who want to do everything possible to clear their name - a California governor's pardon is the only option.
Thus, the first step is to determine whether you qualify for an expungement.
If you do not qualify for an expungement, the next step is to determine whether you qualify for a Certificate of Rehabilitation, which provides many benefits, and also serves as an automatic application for a pardon.
If you do not qualify for an expungement or a certificate of rehabilitation, then your last option is a direct pardon from the governor's office. This is a long and complex process, and very few pardons are granted each year. However, for some people a California Governor's pardon is exactly what's needed and the only remedy that will achieve their needs.
