Expungement help for ex-offenders and felons

I would like to know how can I start an organization that can help ex-offender and cons with expungement. I know a lot of good people who just made bad choices in there lives because they wanted to make fast money. Now they want to change and that chapter in there life is still holding them back.

This is what I like to do. I would like to maybe be the liaison in between the person who needs the expungement and the court system. I want to set up an office that will implement your system or method to help my people.

Your Thoughts?

A: Hello KB,

I’m glad you asked this question. There are many ex-offenders and ex felons who would like to help themselves and others in the same situation. The processes that govern expungement and the sealing of records are legal and vary from state to state. My suggestion is to contact your local legal aid service. There you will find attorneys who are familiar with the expungement statutes in your state. They also know of their colleagues who specialize in area. Often lawyers will offer their service for free or nearly free as a service to the community. They may even know of employers that will hire people with criminal records. Many ex-offenders and felons looking for jobs will need some type of legal assistance to make the search for employment more effective.

Your local legal aid office can be found in your telephone directory of contact the Bar Association in your state to find your local office.

I hope this helps
