Juvenile Record Expungement

In Pennsylvania, juvenile records are not automatically expunged. Many with juvenile records are unaware that their record is viewable until they run into problems with employment, security clearances, and obtaining firearms. An experienced expungement attorney can help you look through your record to figure out what can be expunged or sealed.
