Cleaning Your Criminal Record Can Allow You To Move On

1/20/2015

It is a common story.  A person gets arrested, charged, and convicted of a misdemeanor or felony.  They complete their probation and think that their mistake is in the past and that they can move on with life, but they can't.  They can't get a job.  They can't get that promotion they deserve.  They are ineligible to obtain a license for career advancement.  They cannot move forward.

Misdemeanors and felonies that appear on a person's record can have devastating effects on that person's ability to succeed in life.  It is a sad truth that many employers will turn away those job candidates whose criminal background check reveals a conviction, regardless of the circumstances.  Likewise, a conviction on one's record can make them ineligible to obtain a license to do what they love for a career.

It can feel hopeless to those who have been convicted of a crime and are struggling to move on as a result, but there is a solution.  Under Penal Code Section 1203.4, a person convicted of certain misdemeanors and felonies may petition the court for a dismissal (also known as expungement).  If successful, the conviction is deleted and a dismissal is entered in its place.  As a result, that person's conviction will no longer appear on their record.  All of a sudden, the future looks more bright.

Paschall Law can assist San Diego and Orange County residents who want to clean their record or seek early termination of their probation.  While there are no guarantees and every case is different, our success rate is 100%.  If you want to clean your record and move on with your life, then do not hesitate to contact Paschall Law for a free consultation at (619) 977-7099.  It is never too late to turn things around.  Get started today!

A small crime can prevent you from getting a good job. If you know- the mistake you have done in the past was an accident, then don't need to wonder. You need to take measures for expunging the criminal records so that you can be beneficial in the following ways.
1)A sealed record will help you to face the background check process with more confidence and open the doors for various job opportunities.
2)Nobody can deprive you of your voting rights.
3)You can find public assistance, especially in the situation when a small token of support from the state is crucial.
4)The chances of becoming a volunteer, mentor, or coach will be increased.
