An expungement order directs the court to treat the criminal conviction as if it had never occurred, removing it from a person’s public record.
These court orders are not automatic – a petition must be filed to start the process. The Defender Association files these petitions for our clients.

Since 1934, we have believed that poverty shouldn’t prevent access to justice. Everyone, regardless of income, deserves the highest quality legal counsel.
Happy #JAHM! 🎉
