Being charged with a crime in California is by no means a
pleasant experience. Not only are you
facing potential fines, jail time, appearances in court, but damage to your
reputation as well! Because you are a
resident of The Big Bear State you have an advantage. Individuals with criminal records could
“clean the slate” through expungement.
Now, this does not mean that your record is clean. Instead, your guilty plea or conviction will
be withdrawn and replaced with a permanent plea of not guilty. What happens next? The case is then dismissed as if the
conviction never happened in the first place!
As you may have guessed, not every conviction qualifies for expungement.
To find out more about filing a petition for expungement
contact San Jose criminal lawyer William Chestnut. Attorney Chestnut has been dealing with this
tricky nuance of California law for many years.
He will help you navigate these waters.
