Re: Misdemeanor Expungment and Non-Disclosure

The district clerk in Fort Bend County can tell you what the fees are for an expungement. However, the fees usually depend upon how many record holding agencies you make a party to the law suit. If you don't know how many agencies will be listed as parties, then the clerk wont' be able to tell you the exact filing fee. My recommendation is to call a qualified criminal defense lawyer in Fort Bend County to assist you in filing the expungement. Don't try to pinch pennies by foregoing legal representation here. It is too easy to make a mistake.
