Petition for Non-Disclosure in Texas

We Can Help Petition for Non-Disclosure After a Texas Conviction

Being convicted of a crime can follow a defendant for the rest of his or her life. A criminal record can interfere with a person’s future and make it very difficult for that person to move on. But Texas law allows for certain crimes to be kept private from background checks performed by employers, lenders, rental agencies, or other organizations. This is accomplished by filing a petition for non-disclosure.

A successful petition for non-disclosure will keep many organizations from accessing information about a criminal conviction. But the process of seeking an order of non-disclosure is complex. In addition, certain crimes are not eligible for non-disclosure, and certain charges have waiting periods between two and five years before non-disclosure can be sought. In other words, there are many factors to consider. But although the process is complex, an experienced Dallas attorney can help guide you through it. If you have been charged with a crime, contact the criminal lawyers in Dallas at Grossman Law Offices and get out from under your criminal record.
