Understanding Expungement and Record Relief in Washington
For many in Washington State, a criminal record can cast a long shadow—limiting job opportunities, housing options, and even personal growth. Expungement, sometimes referred to as vacating a conviction, provides a legal pathway to remove or seal records so you can confidently move forward.
At Kingdom Law, PLLC, we help you understand whether your record qualifies for expungement or another form of relief. Every case is unique, and Washington’s laws offer several remedies depending on the type of conviction, the time that has passed, and your post-conviction record.
Who Qualifies for Expungement in Washington State
While Washington law doesn’t use the word “expungement” in the traditional sense, it allows certain convictions to be vacated or sealed under specific conditions.
Vacating a Misdemeanor Conviction
If you’ve completed your sentence, paid all fines, and remained conviction-free for a set period, you may qualify to have your misdemeanor vacated. This means the court withdraws your guilty plea, dismisses the case, and updates your record to show that the conviction has been vacated.
Vacating a Felony Conviction
Felony convictions can also be vacated under Washington’s RCW 9.94A.640, but eligibility depends on the crime’s classification, your sentence completion, and the time since discharge. Some serious offenses may not be eligible, but many non-violent felonies can be cleared with the right legal guidance.
Sealing Juvenile Records
Washington State gives people with juvenile records a second chance. Most juvenile offenses can be sealed automatically or through a court petition once certain requirements are met. Kingdom Law helps families and young adults navigate this process smoothly and efficiently.
