EXPERIENCED CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAWYER TO CLEAR CRIMINAL RECORDS
A criminal records check in San Diego requires that a person go to a San Diego court and search through a database. A person can also do a records check by contacting the Attorney General’s office in California. A person can also hire an experienced criminal defense attorney to do a criminal records check as well.
Cleaning a criminal record is commonly called expunging a criminal record.
An expungement of a criminal record can help a person get a job, apply for legal immigration status, protect a person’s reputation, and allow a person to state on most applications that he or she has never been convicted of a crime.
How the Lawyer Gets The Job Done
You can file a petition for an expungement in court if you completed probation, or if you are still on probation.
Probation is Over: If a person has completed his or her probation, and is not on probation for another offense, then that person is eligible to file a request for an expungement.
Still On Probation: If a person is currently still on probation, he or she will need to file a petition with the court to terminate probation early, along with the petition for an expungement.
The petition for early termination of probation requires a special need such as a pending job, the potential loss of a job, pending enlistment with the armed forces, or something else very important.
Terminating Probation Early
In many cases, there may be an important need to terminate probation early.
If someone has complied with all the requirements of probation, completing everything early without any violations, a judge may consider an early termination of probation.
This means that someone can “get off probation” before the term expires. Otherwise, one the term of probation is completed, the person may file a petition to “clean” or “expunge” their criminal record.
