What is the Illinois expungement process?
Having a criminal record in Illinois can feel like a weight holding you back. Expungement or record sealing is a way to lift that weight and give yourself a fresh start. It means parts of your criminal record get erased or hidden from public view, so most employers or landlords won’t see them. Imagine applying for a job or apartment without worry – that’s the greatest benefit of clearing your record. In short, expungement or record sealing can open doors that were previously closed to you.

Am I Eligible for Expungement or Record Sealing?
Clearing your record might sound complicated, but we make it simple. Our client advisors are here to help you determine whether you qualify.
- Eligibility depends on several factors, including:
The type of offense – Some convictions qualify for record sealing, while others may be eligible for expungement. - Completion of your sentence – You must have finished any required jail time, probation, or court supervision.
- Remaining conviction-free for a set period – The waiting period before applying varies. Generally, misdemeanors have shorter waiting times compared to felonies.

Depending on where your convictions occurred, a court appearance may be required.
