Is Expungement Really Possible for Me?

In many cases, the answer is yes! In fact, expunging your Spokane County records is actually pretty easy once you get some assistance from an attorney, thanks to Washington state law. The law gives you the right to have convictions expunged or “vacated” if you meet certain conditions:

  • You have to pay any costs, such as fines or restitution, that the court ordered you to pay after you were convicted. You also must have successfully completed any community service, probation, parole, and actual prison time that you were sentenced to. In other words, you have to repay your debts to society before you can expunge your record.
  • The second key requirement to expunge your criminal record in Spokane County is that you can’t expunge recent convictions. Instead, you have to go for a period of several years—typically 3 to 10, depending on your specific case—without any new convictions, showing that you’ve paid your dues and have successfully moved on from whatever mistake you committed in the past. Then you’ll be eligible to expunge your Spokane County records.
