What's On The WEST MICHIGAN'S HOT JOBS LIST?

You May Be Able to EXPUNGE A PRIOR CONVICTION

  • Do you have a prior criminal conviction?
  • Is your conviction preventing you from finding a job or starting a career?

The Clean Slate law makes it possible for more people to petition for an expungement. An expungement removes convictions from your public criminal record.
