Please visit my website at: www.slavinlawfirm.com

On my website, you will find a link for "sealing and expunging" records. On that page, there are various links to the Florida law that tells you what crimes are eligible to be sealed and/or expunged.

If you would like further assistance in this matter, please feel free to give my law firm a call and set up a free phone consultation. I can handle many sealing and expungment cases over the phone, and by mail, without a face-to-face meeting.

Hope this helps. Good luck.
