FREE LEGAL SERVICES

 
 
 

Are you concerned your criminal record may stop you from moving forward in your life or from getting that job, apartment, or education you desire? EVERYONE connected to Union Gospel Mission is invited to sign up for FREE legal services today!

Some crimes can be removed or sealed from a person’s criminal record. This process is called an expungement. For this clinic, after receiving your submission, an experienced attorney will review your record, and then call you to discuss your options.  They will help you decide if you have past crimes which are eligible for expungement.  Even if you do not yet qualify for expungement, the attorney will talk to you about when you will be eligible, and discuss possible other legal services like:

  • Eviction expungement

  • Reducing felonies to misdemeanors

  • Waiving fines and fees

  • Driver’s license reinstatement

  • Warrant lifts


 

It is free to talk to an attorney to see if you qualify for expungement. 

All attorneys are with the Community Law Division of the Metropolitan Public Defender’s Office.   

Phone: 503-225-9100, ask to be connected to the Community Law Division.
