Pardons
The impact of a criminal conviction lasts long after you pay your fine, serve your sentence, or otherwise pay your debt to society. If you have a criminal record it is more difficult to find a job, rent an apartment, secure a loan, possess a firearm, or even volunteer at your child’s school. Today it is common for organizations to run background checks in making decisions about you.
If you are not eligible for an Expungement, our attorneys can guide you through the pardon process.
Pardons – If you do not meet the Expungement or Sealing qualifications, but you still want to clear your Pennsylvania criminal history, you may be able to seek a pardon. The rules governing Pardons are not as clearly defined as those for expungement. You may be a good candidate for a pardon if your conviction is older, and if you have made major life improvements. The Pardon process has many steps that we can walk you through.
