Criminal Record as Major Obstacle to Employment

Having a criminal record is probably the biggest obstacle to obtaining employment.  A record of just an arrest (even if the charges were ultimately dismissed) will cause a prospective employer to look to the next candidate who has no arrest record.
The only way to avoid this from happening to you is to obtain an expungement BEFORE you make your next job application.  When you fill out eh "Request of Criminal Background Check," the results will be "No Record Found" if you successfully obtain an expungement of those records.  You can even answer under oath that you have "No Criminal Record of Arrests or Convictions."

"What? Like it's hard?" - Easy Expungement Process

Expungements are easy. At least it's easy for us. The most important aspect of handling an expungement is getting accurate information about your prior records that you are seeking to expunge.There is not much of a gray area in expungements as there is in many other areas of law.  Either you are or you aren't: the expungement statutes in New Jersey make it easy for the lawyer to determine whether or not you are eligible to have all or some of your criminal records expunged.
You don't have to still live in New Jersey to get your records expunged. As a matter of fact, unless you are expunging records in Passaic County, you don't even have to appear in court.  And I'll go one step further: you do all of this without even having to travel to our office to get this done. We can do this through a combination of telephone conferences, texts, emails, and (heavy gulp) U.S. Postal Service.
