DO I QUALIFY?

When it comes to erasing your Harris County criminal record, there are two main options: 

• Seal - your record is placed under lock and key. It’s hidden from public access, like potential employers or landlords. It’s still accessible to certain government agencies, law enforcement, and courts.

• Erase (Expunge) - your record is completely destroyed, as if it never happened. It’s wiped clean from the system, and no one (government agencies, employers, or the public) can access it.

Your charge will determine what you qualify for.
