Criminal convictions can make it difficult to:
-Find a new job
-Secure a promotion
-Volunteer at your child's school
-Buy or rent a home
Fortunately, many Colorado misdemeanors and felonies can now be sealed. The chart and Colorado Lawyer article below show the eligibility requirements. Review the "time from final disposition" column to determine if your conviction is eligible to be sealed.
NOTICE TO FORMER CLIENTS: At the time of your case, you may have been advised that your case could not be sealed based on the law at that time. For some, that may have changed. Please carefully read this page and the attached article. If you think the law changes discussed make it possible for your case to now be sealed, call me. I will petition to seal legally eligible cases for which I previously represented you at cost--with no additional legal fees, whether I represented you as appointed counsel or paid counsel. You will have to pay the Court/CBI costs which run between $127 and $300.
