Felony convictions are tough to seal but not impossible. Whether you will be successful will depend on your behavior after and before the conviction (that is, no legal trouble) and the judge who hears the case. For you, this is very serious business because your license and future career will depend on it. You need to hire a lawyer because if you try and then lose, you are done.
