Helping You Seal Nevada Arrest and Conviction Records
If you have been convicted of a crime, you know full well what a negative impact it can have on your life. How would your life change if that conviction was no longer on your record? If it were gone like it never happened? Nevada offers certain people who have been convicted of a crime the opportunity to have their records sealed so that they are no longer visible on background checks from prospective employers and other searches.
Record sealing is an order by the court that handled the case directing all parties to remove all records from their databases and to seal all records. Once your record is sealed, you can answer "no" to questions about whether you have been arrested for or convicted of a crime.
The court has broad discretion in these matters and is not required to seal your record. When your future is at stake, it is important to have a Las Vegas criminal record sealing attorney on your side who knows the law.

Getting a Fresh Start With a Clean Criminal Record
With the exception of a few serious crimes, records for most misdemeanor and felony convictions can be sealed. There are waiting periods required that vary depending on the type of crime on your record. You also must have a clean criminal record throughout your waiting period with no charges and no convictions other than minor traffic violations.
At the law firm of Wright & Weiner, Ltd., we represent clients throughout Nevada in these cases. We are local lawyers who know the law and know the legal system. We will take the time to review your case with you and go through it in detail.
In some cases, an additional hearing may be needed to support your request to seal the record. While a hearing is not necessary for the majority of cases, when it is, we will be there with you to present the strongest possible argument to have your record sealed.
