Find answers to your legal question.





Where can a Felon get a "real" Job?

Convicted of a felony for a car wreck without insurance, almost exactly 10 years ago. No moral turpitude, no violence, no drugs, no theft, no fraud. Paid all costs and probation. No jail time. I've had voting rights restored and pardon in process for nearly 2 years. Recently laid off from fabrication shop (was there 2 years). AS degree in Business management, strong retail and customer service background.
PLEASE Help
Thanks

You can have your record expunged!
What legal steps can I take to expunge my felony conviction?

Not every case can be expunged. Every state has its own requirements that have to be met before a criminal record can be expunged. Contrary to popular belief, records are not "sealed" automatically with the passage of time, but require the filing of a petition with the court requesting the expungement and stating the reasons you are requesting it and how you meet the criteria set by law. The procedure can take between three months to almost a year depending upon the Court and the severity of the case. The fees are usually very reasonable, in the neighborhood of $2,000 to $2,500.00, and include research, filing fees, the drafting of the Petition, and any Court appearances. If you are not versed in this area of law, or feel you cannot handle this even with doing your own legal research, a criminal defense attorney would be able to do this for you.

It is for sure a hard task for a felon to get a job. It will be hard to find "trust" no matter what you did.

Try sending your resume to companies. Use www.monstertrak.com

$400 can get you a Personal Trainers Certificate. Then go to any fitness gym and start your own business. They usually don't go back that far on a background check. Good luck.
