Before you waste a lot of money, you must realize NY does not have an expungment statute. Anyone who tells you differently is lying to you or is sadly mistaken. I chair a committee of the NYS Bar Association that is working on getting such a statute but we are no where near one yet.
There are other things you can do which may help you maintain jobs and other opportunities, but they fall way short of an expungement. If you would like to speak about these opportunities, you may contact me by following the links below.

You can have an attorney check the status and file for the expungement. This area of law is our specialty, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.
