Expungement Lawyer
Santa Barbara Expungement Attorney
Would you like to clean up your criminal record? If so, talking with a great expungement lawyer is a great first step. We understand the importance of having a clear criminal record. A negative mark can negatively affect…
- Job options
- Educational opportunities
- Where you can rent an apartment or home
- Your way of life
For these reasons, we strive to make the expungement and sealing process easy. Clients tell us that once we got their criminal record sealed or expunged, they felt a sense of relief and knew they had the ability to move forward in life.
If you have a criminal record, then you already know how it can cause long-term problems when you apply for jobs, loans or even try to rent an apartment or home.
An expungement is a legal procedure in which a conviction is cleared from a criminal record. This does not mean that the conviction is removed entirely; rather it means that the conviction will no longer be able to be viewed by the public.
After an expungement has been successfully completed, the individual may legally say that he or she has not been arrested for or convicted of the expunged crime. This will give a person the fresh start that they need to pursue their goals, without having the stigma of a criminal conviction.
Why Seal your Criminal Record?
The majority of people do not understand that if they were arrested but never formally charged or even if their case was dismissed or they were not found guilty, the records of the arrest and of the court case still exist.
- These are part of a person’s non-judicial and judicial criminal records.
- These records are public and will not simply disappear or go away with time.
If this situation applies to you, you need an experienced expungement lawyer. After an expungement, you can truthfully answer a job or loan application that you do not have a criminal record. This can make all the difference in important opportunities. FYI: Not everyone is eligible to have their criminal record expunged.
Free Consultation, Reasonable Fees
Keep in mind that you can only have one conviction cleared at a time and that you must follow the necessary steps to have each individual offense removed from your record. Not all convictions can be cleared from your record. We will investigate your case, and establish whether or not you are eligible to have your record cleared. If so, we will begin the process immediately. We are committed to answering your questions, returning your calls promptly, and keeping you up to date on the progress of your case.

Mr. McMurray was my lawyer when I was arrested by the SB County Sheriff’s department. I won’t go into details, but I was in serious trouble… Mr. McMurray was truthful and helpful through the entire process. I ended up avoiding jail time all together and I haven’t looked back since. I can happily say he got me a second chance.
I reached out to Elvia to help with an expungement. It was a very complex case and Elvia was extremely thorough, diligent, and professional throughout the entire process. In the end, our request for expungement was granted and I’m quite sure it would not have been granted without her help. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a great attorney on their side
Mr. McMurray did an amazing job helping my son through a series of negotiations. He researched the case, attended meetings, and supported my son one hundred percent. He had a great rapport with my son and helped him feel less anxious about the proceedings. I recommend Mr. McMurray wholeheartedly.
