Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

How much does it cost to seal your record in California?

Expungement can seriously improve your chances of securing a job or housing. Sealing a record hides it from most background checks but does not eliminate it. Law enforcement agencies could still see sealed records.

Do courts need to be sealed?

Court case records and proceedings are presumptively public, but occasionally there are compelling reasons for keeping all or parts of them confidential, sometimes permanently but often only temporarily.

How do I seal my juvenile record in California?

Termination of coordinated action. The coordination trial judge may terminate any coordinated action by settlement or final dismissal, summary judgment, or judgment, or may transfer the action so that it may be dismissed or otherwise terminated in the court where it was pending when coordination was ordered.

Is it better to seal or expunge your record?

There is a new law in California that went into effect in 2023 called the California Clean Slate Act (SB 731). Under the Clean Slate Act, authorities will automatically expunge or dismiss certain arrests and criminal convictions.

How do you request to seal court records in California?

How to ask to seal your record. To request sealing, you can use Petition to Seal Arrest and Related Records (Form CR-409), which is translated into Chinese, Korean, Spanish, and Vietnamese. If the order is granted, the judge will use the CR-410 order form. Not all arrests qualify for relief.
