San Diego, California, Expungements Attorney
Have you completed your probation period for a crime? Was your criminal charge dismissed? You may qualify for an expungement, or sealing of your criminal record. At the San Diego Law Offices of Bill O'Connell, we can help you file the necessary motions and paperwork so you can legitimately answer "no" when asked if you have been convicted of a crime.

If you are considering hiring a lawyer to discuss an expungement, now is the time to do it. While an expungement does not completely clear your record, it does seal it from landlords, schools and many employers. Licensure boards and government employers may still gain access to your record; however, it will clearly state that the charge was expunged.
As a criminal defense lawyer since 1977, Bill O'Connell has helped many clients throughout Southern California clear their record of misdemeanor and minor felony charges, including drug possession, theft, and a variety of juvenile crimes. Easy to talk to and tough in the courtroom, he will make sure you are aware of all the requirements for expungement as well as what to expect during the application process. You can count on him to provide a clear and persuasive argument for your expungement.
Motions to Terminate Probation
In most cases, expungements are only possible after the probation period ends. In some situations, however, it is possible to file a motion to terminate probation and, if granted, apply for expungement earlier. We will determine if this is an option for you.
