California Pardon's
Obtaining a Pardon in California
Most people who think that they need a "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.
Thus, the first step is to determine whether you qualify for an expungement by taking our instant online test.
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. This is a very long and complex process, and very few pardons are granted each year. However, for some people a California pardon is exactly what's needed and the only remedy that will achieve their needs.
We only Handle Pardon Applications in Drug Cases
Because so few pardons are granted, and the process is very long and expensive, our law firm will only handle your pardon application if you were convicted of a felony drug offense. Post-conviction relief in drug cases is our specialty, and these are also the cases that have the highest probability of being pardoned.
If you suffered a drug conviction in a California court, our law firm will leave no stone unturned in seeking your direct pardon.
