Living with a criminal record can obviously cause a lot of hardships, both personally and professionally, even years after the incident. Such was the case for a man in Cook County, IL who was finding it difficult to live with a prior criminal trespassing on his record. He no longer wanted the limitations this offense created anytime someone reviewed his criminal record. The man knew that he needed a skilled attorney to navigate the potentially life-altering process of an expungement, so he reached out to Chicago law firm, O’Meara Law LLC.

Criminal attorney Michael O’Meara knew that by taking advantage of an expungement, his client could remove the trespassing from his record, which would allow him to seek better opportunities. With this goal in mind, attorney O’Meara completed the necessary steps and filed a petition with the court to expunge his client’s past transgression. When the process was finalized and approved, his client’s criminal record was wiped clean and the man was relieved to move on without fear of his past holding him back.

The outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any similar or future case.
