Will Record Expungement Mask my Prior Arrest From Employer Background Investigations?
Friday, April 17th, 2009No. Many people are under the mistaken assumption that a record expungement and/or so called record clearance will actually mask their prior criminal arrests and convictions from future background investigations. Many attorneys actually advertise that this is the case. It is not the case. What record expungement will do is entitle one to a notation in their court file record that they have successfully completed probation, and/or entitle them to certain government benefits including citizenship, professional licensing and others.
