Morristown Expungement Lawyer
Sealing Your Criminal Record to the Public Eye
If you were arrested or convicted for a crime, the consequences can be much more far-reaching than the immediate penalties. Convictions make many parts of life more difficult, such as pursuing secondary education, obtaining employment, and finding housing. Fortunately, it is possible to have your record sealed from the public eye. This process is known as expungement and The Law Offices of Joseph S. Scura may be able to help you pursue sealing your past conviction or arrest.
To learn more about the process, contact a Morristown expungement lawyer at (973) 832-0841.
Am I Eligible for Expungement?
Working with a lawyer is a smart step to take if you are thinking about expunging your record. With an expansive knowledge of the law, we know which offenses can or cannot be expunged and we won't waste any of your time if your record cannot be sealed.
Not all convictions are eligible for expungement. Some are known as prohibited offenses and cannot be sealed. There are also many factors which go into the eligibility process such as whether or not you were convicted, if you served time, if you paid your fines, etc.
There are a few crimes which are not eligible for expungement, including:
- Certain felony offenses
- Violent offenses
- Murder
- Robbery
- Kidnapping
- Arson
- Perjury
- Sexual assault

I was in a super stressful situation in which a driver was claiming I caused damaged to their vehicle while driving amongst other things..Mr Scura answered my initial phone call at 7pm at night, and was extremely knowledgeable and kind. He handled everything professionally, and in a timely manner always responding to all of my questions and obtained a very fair and optimal outcome in my case. I’d like to also mention he took all of the stress out of the situation for me at a time in my life that was immensely stressful! I recommend him and would use him again ( but hopefully don’t have to)A Franks

I hired Joseph S. Scura for my criminal case in Superior Court. Joseph was able to downgrade this case to municipal court and at the end have the matter dismissed. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome. Joseph was very supportive and never disappointing from the very start. I was able to reach out to him any time by text message or phone call with timely responses. His suggestions were very positive and genuine. I highly recommended Attorney Joseph S. Scura and his team for any criminal case.Pieter W.

I couldn't recommend Joe Scura and his team more highly. Five stars is not enough. An extremely knowledgeable professional who follows up promptly and maintains contact. He patiently guided me through the legal system and worked tirelessly to turn a potentially serious situation into a dismissal without trial. I hope that there will never be another situation where I would need an attorney, but if so, I would call upon Joe's services without hesitation.William
