A Spokeswoman for Legal Aid said each person’s case is nuanced and as such speaking with attorneys will help to get a better idea of which of the legal processes could be used for an expungement in a given case.

Pennsylvania laws have changed dramatically in recent years she said, providing folks with the opportunity to engage the process providing a great opportunity to get help which can remove barriers to better jobs and potential life barriers.

You’ can meet one-on-one with a Legal Aid of Southeastern PA (LASP) advocate to learn your time frame and steps needed in order for criminal charges to be removed
