Expungement Lawyer in Michigan: Clear Your Record. Take Back Your Future.
A criminal conviction doesn’t have to follow you forever. If you’re eligible for expungement in Michigan, the law now gives you a second chance — and Andriacchi Law is here to help you seize it.
We’ve helped clients across Michigan’s Upper Peninsula clear their records, restore their reputations, and finally move forward without a past mistake holding them back.
What Is Expungement in Michigan?
Expungement (also called criminal record sealing) is a legal process that erases qualifying criminal convictions from your public record. Once granted, those records are no longer visible to employers, landlords, or licensing agencies — giving you the freedom to live without the stigma of a past charge.
Benefits of Expungement:
- Better job opportunities
- Access to housing and rental approvals
- Eligibility for loans or professional licenses
- Restored peace of mind
- No longer needing to check “yes” on background check forms
Are You Eligible for Expungement?
Thanks to Michigan’s Clean Slate law, more people than ever before may now qualify to have their records cleared.
You may be eligible if:
- It’s been 5 or 7+ years (depending on offense type) since your conviction or release
- You have no pending charges
- You’ve completed all sentencing requirements
- Your conviction qualifies under Michigan law
Most non-violent misdemeanors and certain felonies can now be expunged. DUI expungement is now also allowed under specific conditions.
Not sure if you qualify? That’s where we come in.
