Pls call my office about expunging your record. Otherwise it will be on the record forever. Expunging is a process that takes 4-6 months and I do this often.

As you pointed out, anyone can go to the clerks website and can see the arrest; therefore, it could be your boss or a future boss.

I also handle expungements and my office is here in Broward.

I could get both the court and police record taken care of.
