Expungements Attorney

A criminal record can prevent you from getting certain jobs, or a promotion. It is also a subject of personal embarrassment for some people. The increased use of background checks and the easy accessibility of public records has made having a criminal record a constant source of irritation. This can often be resolved by having your record expunged.

While not all criminal arrests can be expunged, the majority are eligible. Even in serious cases involving convictions and felonies, it may still be possible to have the records of the case sealed. At Martin, Kent & Reidy, L.L.C., we help clients get a new start by having their records expunged or sealed. To discuss your case and see if you meet the requirements, contact us online, call 630-517-3177 or toll free at 888-646-3518 to schedule a free initial consultation.

A client charged with Attempted Murder who faced a prison term of 20-60 years in IDOC was released after only serving 120 days in a downstate boot camp.

Breath Refusal Case Won
• A first offender was found not guilty following a bench trial even though the Officer testified that the defendant didn't pass any of the Field Sobriety Tests. Uniquely, the Officer also testified that our client had red, bloodshot eyes, strong odor of alcohol and slurred speech. The trial Judge ruled that although the defendant might have been under the influence of alcohol, the totality of the circumstances did not amount to a conviction.
