ARS 13-911: Sealing Criminal Records in Arizona – How an Expungement Lawyer Can Change Your Future

Visit the full page: https://www.chmlaw.com/sealing-criminal-records/ Having a criminal record in Arizona can affect nearly every part of your life. A past mistake, whether it was a misdemeanor or felony, can follow you into job interviews, rental applications, or even volunteer opportunities at your child’s school. Many people believe they must live with that conviction for the rest of their lives. Fortunately, Arizona’s relatively new law, ARS § 13-911, now allows eligible individuals to have their records sealed from public view. This law represents a significant shift in Arizona criminal law. For years, the only relief available was to have a conviction “set aside” under ARS § 13-905, which does not remove the record from public access, unlike the new expungement options. In this audio, we will explain how record sealing under ARS § 13-911 works, who is eligible, the types of offenses that may qualify, and the process for filing a petition. We will also cover why hiring an experienced criminal defense attorney from CHM Law can make the difference in whether your petition is approved.
