Sealing Criminal Records

Choosing to seal your criminal record means they will no longer be open to the public. This can be helpful for colleges, future employers and background checks. However, your files can still be accessed under specific scenarios such as future crimes being committed, buying a firearm or applying for a criminal justice or government job. In these situations, the existence of a record will be disclosed, but the specifics of the documents will still be sealed.

Expunging Criminal Records

We can help with the expungement process for St. Augustine residents. Seeking to expunge your records will destroy the files, except for a copy kept by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Only law enforcement can ever see these records, and they will be virtually erased to the public, employers and background checks.
