Oklahoma Expungement Lawyers

If you have been convicted of a crime in the past, it does not necessarily mean it will be on your record permanently. There are a wide range of criminal charges that our Oklahoma criminal lawyers will be able to expunge or erase from your record, just as long as you meet specific criteria requirements in place by the state. When referring to felony or misdemeanor charges being expunged, the implication is that they will no longer be visible on your criminal record and will be as though the crime in question was never actually committed. This also means that when background checks are performed on you, the charge will no longer show up. If you have a question about whether or not a charge can be expunged from your record, contact attorneys at AMA Law today and set up a free consultation.

• Complete expungement
• Case dismissal expungement

A complete expungement can be found in Section 18/19 and signifies when a charge is completely removed from your record. This is a very difficult type of expungement, but it is also the most desirable. The other type of expungement is also referred to as a 991c expungement. This means that an individual’s record will be changed from “guilty” to “not guilty” and the case is shown as being dismissed. While the record will still exist, it will show up as being dismissed instead of as a conviction.
