Contact us today to see if your Florida criminal record can be sealed or expunged in Pensacola.

The expungement process begins with determining your eligibility based on having no prior convictions, qualifying offenses, and successful case outcomes like dismissals or withheld adjudication. We then guide you through fingerprinting, obtaining your FDLE certificate of eligibility, filing the petition with Escambia County Circuit Court, and securing final court approval.



You can expect our team to handle every detail from FDLE coordination to local court procedures, ensuring your petition meets all requirements for swift approval. Panhandle Defense Firm's experience navigating both state and local systems helps expedite the process that typically takes several months when handled properly.

Our thorough approach includes reviewing your complete criminal history, identifying all eligible charges, and preparing comprehensive documentation that addresses potential objections before they arise.
