Okay we are born, we have a
childhood, go to school, get older and then it becomes time for us to make choices. Could a
mistake made in high school keep you from reaching your goals in life? Yes it
can. Suppose you were arrested for shoplifting or some other petty criminal offense.
The arrest record and the court record can become a black
mark against your future. Anyone’s past criminal record can affect their
ability to get a job, rent an apartment, gain credit, obtain student loans and
prevent them from obtaining a professional license. Not all types
of criminal records are eligible so you should talk to a lawyer to see if you qualify for what we call in Texas an expungement (your record is erased) or a non-disclosure (your record is sealed). It is
a wise thing to do and it will feel great to finally get your record cleared.
