Are you looking for an expungement attorney in the OKC Metro? Look no further than Chavers & Guhl Criminal Defense Law Firm in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma to help with your expungement case. 

If you have previously been convicted of a serious crime or have been arrested in connection with one, you may be able to have your record expunged. An expungement “erases” your record in the eyes of the law and gives you a clean slate.

An expungement effectively “seals” your record, allowing only certain government parties to have access to it. In many cases, the person would no longer need to disclose the arrest or conviction on items such as job applications and housing applications. The expunged record can still be considered as a prior conviction or arrest when a new conviction or arrest is assessed.

An expungement is never guaranteed and may be denied solely on policy. It also may not always be available to everyone. 

Several factors for expungement are considered, including:

• The amount of time that has passed since the conviction or arrest
• The severity of the crime for which the expungement is sought
• Additional convictions or arrest and the severity of those in the offender’s files
