Houston, Texas, Record Expunction Lawyer
There are some common misunderstandings regarding expunction, or what is sometimes called expunging a criminal record. If you have been charged with a criminal offense, but the charges were dropped or you were acquitted, your record will still include a record of the criminal charges. To eliminate any information about the charges on your official record you will need to file a lawsuit in a district court in the jurisdiction of the charges. A successful expunction will clear your official records and databases that are maintained by law enforcement agencies, but will not clear records being maintained by private parties.
