Criminal Expungement

Clear Your Record. Open New Doors.

Do past felony convictions prevent you from working where you want, living where you want, or participating in your children's lives the way you would like?

A criminal record can follow you for years, creating barriers to employment, housing, professional licensing, and other important opportunities. In many cases, a criminal conviction can also prevent you from volunteering at your child's school, coaching youth sports, participating in school activities, or serving in community leadership roles.

Fortunately, Michigan's expanded Clean Slate law now allows more residents to expunge qualifying criminal convictions from their record. This includes certain felonies and misdemeanors that previously could not be expunged, giving many individuals a second chance to move forward with their lives.

At Change Me Works, we understand that everyone deserves the opportunity to move beyond past mistakes. We can connect you with experienced attorneys who can review your criminal history, determine your eligibility for expungement, and guide you through the process from start to finish.

Don't let your past continue to limit your future. Whether you're trying to secure better employment, qualify for housing, volunteer at your child's school, coach youth sports, or simply move forward with confidence, Change Me Works can help connect you with the legal resources you need to pursue a fresh start.
