Expungement of a Juvenile Criminal Record

A criminal record can follow a person for a lifetime, making it difficult to find a job or housing. Juvenile criminal records can be sealed or expunged, just like adult criminal records. However, expungement is not always necessary. Juvenile records are usually not available to the public. If you have a concern about whether your child's criminal record will come back to haunt him or her, please schedule a free initial consultation with an experienced attorney at The Denson Firm by calling (727) 228-0838 or filling out our intake form .

We can advise you if it is necessary to pursue juvenile criminal record expungement. To learn more about criminal law and read answers to frequently asked questions about criminal proceedings, please visit Criminal Defense FAQs.

I came to Mr. Denson at one of the most vulnerable times in my life that I have ever experienced. I was 18 and facing a charge of battery on a law enforcement officer with no support from friends or family. Bruce helped me in every way possible to him and took my case very seriously and personally, and was able to get my case dismissed. I am extremely grateful to Bruce and he is the only attorney that I would recommend my friends and family to. I can’t thank him enough and if you are considering an attorney, definitely choose Bruce Denson.
