How Expungement Works
Many individuals convicted of a crime in Lancaster are interested in getting their charges expunged. Expungement removes a charge from your criminal record. However, you can only get a charge expunged if you’ve met the requirements of your conviction.
You cannot seek expungement of your charges while on probation. You must finish your full period of probation to begin the expungement process. Having your probationary period extended due to a violation can increase the amount of time it takes to have your charges expunged.
We can help you fight for your charges to be set aside after your probationary period is complete. Find out more about your legal options by contacting us right now.
