OVERVIEW

Ready for a Fresh Start? Clearing Your Record May Be Possible.

A criminal record can continue to affect your life long after your case is over. It may create obstacles when applying for jobs, housing, professional licenses, or educational opportunities. If you qualify, expungement or record sealing can help remove eligible offenses from public view and give you the opportunity to move forward with greater confidence.

At Almagno Law, we help clients throughout Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and New York determine whether they qualify for expungement or record sealing. We guide you through every step of the process, from reviewing your eligibility to filing the necessary paperwork and representing you in court when required.

Client Reviews

What Our Clients Say

I was injured in class by a teacher telling me to perform a science experiment with no protection. I had bad burns to my face. At a mediation the insurance company would not even pay us 100k for my injuries. Lawrence got them to pay me over 250k.

Jan G

I was wrongfully arrested and prosecuted by the Tiverton Police Department. Lawrence sued them in Federal Court and tried the case during Covid in front of a jury. The Jury awarded me over 87K in pain and suffering, and awarded us attorney fees which amounted to over 200k.

Paul F

I was charged with driving double the speed limit. Lawrence tried the case, appealed, and then appealed again to the District Court, which reversed the decision because the state police could not ignore their own regulations on calibrating the radar.

Daniel H

I was hit by another car on 95 south. The other driver tried to blame me. Her insurance company sided with her. Lawrence took them to court had an accident reconstruction expert piece back the accident, and with that the insurance company still would not budge. Lawrence kept fighting and was taking the case to trial, when finally the insurance company realized they were not going to win.

Xiaye Wu

I was injured in Massachusetts in a car accident. The insurance company said it was my fault and offered me 2k. Lawrence sued and got me Policy limits, and then went after my insurance policy for underinsured benefits and I am sure he will get the same thing.

Constance S

I was injured at work and had an attorney handle my workers compensation case, however my attorney did not inform me that I could also file a claim against the third party that was supposed to maintain the walkway. I met with Lawrence after hearing my case was not worth much. We demanded 100k and it was rejected. Lawrence filed suit and in Federal Court we walked out with just under 400k.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I eligible to expunge my record?

Eligibility depends on the offense, the outcome, and how much time has passed, and it varies by state. We review your record and tell you clearly what can be cleared.

What does expungement actually do?

It removes eligible offenses from public view so they do not show up on most background checks, which can open doors to jobs, housing, and licenses.

How long does the process take?

It varies by court and by the type of relief, but we handle the filings and hearings and keep the process moving.

Can dismissed charges be cleared?

Often yes. Charges that did not lead to a conviction are frequently eligible, and clearing them keeps them off background checks.

How much does it cost?

Expungement is a flat-fee service in most cases. We will explain the cost clearly at your free consultation.
