Re: embezzlement
Was this his only criminal conviction? Was it one count? Was it over 5 years since he was off probation? If yes to all of these, I can help. Please contact me at www.kliszlaw.com to discuss. Tim Klisz
Re: embezzlement
If he's charged, but has not pled, it may be possible to keep this off his record for everyone except the police..
Otherwise, once convicted it stays on his record for 5 years until he can get it expunged if that's his only crime.
However, when applying for a position as a law enforcement officer, the police have access to all his records and nothing can be done to hide this information,
Assuming he was fired from his job as a thief, a reference check with that employer may also disqualify him from future jobs.
