No one wakes up begging for a criminal record. 🙅
But it happens.🤷
Sometimes it could be a mistake, or lapse in judgment, or other times you think you just won’t get caught.😣
If you get charged with a crime, regardless of the outcome, you’ll still end up with a criminal record.
Even if your case is dropped, dismissed, or you are found not guilty at trial, your name will still appear in criminal record searches. 🔎
But you can wipe the slate clean 🧼 by having your record sealed or expunged.
Unfortunately, a lot of people don't understand the difference between the two.
In today's video, Criminal Defense Attorney Hannah Akintoye explains the difference between getting a record expunged vs. sealed.
📌To find out if you qualify for an expungement or record sealing, call us today at (202) 858-3093 to speak to a qualified expungement lawyer.
