I am interested in exploring the possibility of Expungement for my son. Early in my son’s life (1982) I left him with his mother when he was about 12 years old, and I didn’t come back until last year (2021). When he struggled on his own growing up without a father, as an 18–19-year-old teenager, (over 30 years ago) he was convicted for a burglary, a small amount of cocaine, and absconding. He did a couple years (2-4) in prison for all of it. Now, all these decades later, he’s clean & sober, married with two teenage daughters, (one starting college in the fall and the other one becoming a high school senior). My son is resistant to revisiting his felonious past, but I would like to nudge him in this potential expungement for him. I believe he is an excellent candidate. Please assist me in directing my son on what needs to be done to hopefully get that expunged off from his record. My son and I have the exact same first, middle, and last name. My contact information is below. Thank you.
