Re: grand larceny

NY States does NOT allow any expungement of criminal records, overall this conviction will be on your record permanently...

Felony convictions tend to seriously hamper the potential for future employment overall... It is CRUCIAL to have adequate and proper legal representation during a criminal case in order to ensure something like this does not happen...

Overall, most jobs tend to ask on the application about previous felony convictions... It very well mauy be to yur benefit to attempt to seek employment through a smaller clinical situation or begin planning to head toward self-employment as it may be very difficult to find the kind of job you want...

They say that everything happens for a reason, perhaps the reason for this is to simply nudge you in a diffrent direction that what you were thinking... think it through.

MUCH LUCK!
