Re: drop charges on your recard

You can expunge if you received a probationary sentence without going to state prison. You can seal the record if you were a minor when the offense was committed.

You can retain an attorney - my charge would be around $500 - or try to do it yourself. Feel free to contact me directly.

Thank you for your inquiry.

If you are located in Nevada you would have to file a Petition to Seal your criminal conviction. Your ability to do so would be dependent on the actual crime you were convicted of earlier.

I would need to speak to you further about your case to determine your likelihood of success. My office charges flat fees of $600.00 for expungement and sealing hearings.

If you'd like to speak to me further contact me at the information below.
