Why Would I Want To Get My Records Expunged In Tarrant County?

Tarrant County criminal charges can affect you in a number of ways:

• They can cause employers to move your job application to the “to be shredded” pile.
• They can disqualify you for certain government programs, such as housing and educational services.
• Your charges can also cause you a great deal of embarrassment.

It’s probably time to get those blemishes removed, and we’ve got just the tools to do it. They’re called expunction and nondisclosure orders.

Do I Need An Expunction Or Nondisclosure Order?

Expunction orders, also referred to as having your record expunged, are orders from a judge to have a charge removed from your criminal record. This removal is permanent and makes your record squeaky clean—so clean that even law enforcement and other government agencies shouldn’t be able to see the charge or charges.

Nondisclosure orders are also orders issued by a judge. For these, the judge is ordering your criminal record to be “sealed.” This simply means that it won’t be visible to the public; however, law enforcement and other government agencies will be able to view the record. Most employers will not be able to see the charge.

There are many qualifications you must meet for expunctions and nondisclosure orders in Tarrant County. A few of the eligibility requirements are listed below.

• For your criminal record to be expunged in Tarrant County, you must have been arrested for a crime but then either acquitted of the crime, pardoned, or charged with a crime but never prosecuted.
• To qualify for a nondisclosure order in Tarrant County, you must have satisfied the mandatory waiting period; you could qualify if you completed a deferred adjudication program; and your offense must qualify.

Be sure to discuss the particulars of your case with a Tarrant County record expunction attorney.
