New York has 'sealing' laws (under CPL 160.59) for certain convictions after 10 years. New Jersey has a more robust 'expungement' process. Eligibility depends heavily on the specific charges and your timeline.

Fees vary depending on the complexity of the case, the charges, and the jurisdiction. We offer a transparent fee structure and will discuss all costs during your free initial consultation. We do not believe in hidden fees.

Certain charges, particularly federal drug trafficking and crimes involving firearms (like 924(c)), carry mandatory minimums (e.g., 5, 10, or 20 years) that a judge cannot go below unless specific narrow exceptions apply.
