Expungements Now Benefit Professional Licenses

Expungements Now Benefit  Professional Licenses

An expungement or record clearance can be important to a new business. In other words, many business owners must obtain Professional Licenses to run and operate a business in California. The application must disclose prior convictions. This may sound like a sound policy on its face. Even so, an unintended consequence is to create a barrier to applicants who are trying to change their lives. Historically, applicants feared being denied simply due to a prior conviction.

A license can no longer be denied solely based on a conviction that has been expunged.  The new law becomes effective on July 1, 2020. Accordingly, criminal convictions can be expunged under Penal Code Section 1203.4. With this in mind, the process can be as simple as filing the proper paperwork. The Law Offices of Ross Green will help you with the process.
