A Misdemeanor is an offense that is more serious than an Infraction, and less serious than a Felony.

Our skilled attorneys may be able to have your guilty or no contest plea withdrawn and have your misdemeanor dismissed. All expungements, both felony and misdemeanor, are complex and require the assistance of a qualified legal professional who understands the laws that are involved in the process.

Misdemeanor convictions do not get cleared off of your criminal record after a certain period of time has passed. It is your responsibility to petition the court to have your conviction cleared off your record. The entire expungement process typically takes a few months, and depends upon certain factors, such as the type of conviction, when the conviction occurred, and the court.

In the event that you have a misdemeanor conviction and are currently on probation, you may put in a request to have your probation discharged. If you are released from probation, you may next file a petition to have your misdemeanor conviction expunged. If you have a misdemeanor on your criminal record and are no longer on probation, you may file the petition to have your convicted cleared. There are a variety of forms that must be filled out during this process, and it is recommended that you have a California expungement lawyer assist in the paperwork, to ensure that everything is filled out correctly.
