Can I Get My Criminal Record Expunged?

Each day, Dan and his team field calls from clients looking to expunge:

“What exactly is an “Expungement,” and how does it work?”

“What does the applicant have to do to start the process?”

“How long does it take to get a hearing?”

“Will the expungement hearing be in-person, or via Zoom?”

“Once my conviction is expunged, what will show up on a background search?”

What Exactly is an “Expungement” in Michigan?

In the last year, there has been a lot of “buzz” about Expungement of Criminal Records in Michigan. In 2020, Michigan passed a series of “clean-slate” initiatives which expanded the eligibility for people to seek expungements, and in many cases, shortened the waiting period to apply. Then, in 2021, the legislature proposed adding OWI convictions to the expungement eligibility list, and the bill will head to the Governor for possible enaction.  

Why so much attention to expungements? The consequences of a criminal conviction can be both long-lasting and life-altering: loss of employment or inability to find a job; financial ruin; family/custody/relationship upheaval; and—of course--loss of freedom.
