Does anyone know how to get criminal charges expunged without a lawyet?


My son is trying so hard to enlist in the Navy but he has a criminal record quite a few years ago. They are sayin now if he can get those charges expunged they'll permit him to enlist. We are poor people and don't own property to borrow on. so I don't see how we can get a lawyer to do this. Does anyone know how to go about getting a record expunged?

Start by talking to the clerk of the county court where the charges were filed to see (1) if they can be and (2) if you even need a lawyer.

If you do, grab the phone book and talk to legal aid or lawyer's referral services; someone should be willing to help a future service man cheap

good luck

go to the court house in the town were u was arrested and procecuted...it will cost money tho..up to a thousand dollars..depends on what he was charged with...some felonies cant be explunged...if his not a murder or rapist im sure he can get it explunged...good luck
