If you have been charged with a theft or property crime, you need our experienced Metro Detroit Criminal Defense team.

Detroit Michigan Expungement Attorney
Detroit Michigan Expungement Attorney
One of the most rewarding parts of being a defense attorney is helping those with convictions achieve an expungement. An expungement, also known as setting aside a conviction, allows you to mark that you have not been convicted of a crime when asked on applications and other legal documents. Helping make a case non-public where a person no longer needs to disclose the conviction on a job application is rewarding. For many people, it can mean the difference between getting a promotion or moving to a more lucrative job.
To be eligible to have a conviction expunged from your record there are certain eligibility factors that must be met:
- Felony– no more than one felony conviction and two misdemeanor convictions can be on your record; only the felony can be expunged.
- Misdemeanor– up to two misdemeanors may be expunged if no felony convictions.
There is a lot of paperwork involved in this process and it can take several months to make its way through the system. Our knowledgeable legal team at The Bennett Law Firm, PLC, has helped dozens of individuals achieve their goals through expungement.
