Because many of our clients are members of the East Carolina University community, we understand the importance of keeping your record clean. After all, your future success might well depend on it.

Our criminal defense strategies protect your future right to expungement
Our clients usually can't afford to plead guilty, even in misdemeanor cases where there's no real prospect of jail time. The damage to future career or academic prospects will be too great. North Carolina criminal convictions, whether by guilty plea or verdict, create permanent records that normally cannot be expunged.
That's why our law firm concentrates on ways to resolve cases that will preserve your right to expungement. Under North Carolina law, expungement means that all records of the arrest and prosecution are removed, and it's as if the offense never occurred.
