Our client received an arrest warrant for an alleged assault on his brother’s girlfriend. He needed the warrant cleared so that he could be considered for a job he was applying for.

Expungement is a legal process that can remove certain charges from your record, making it as if they never occurred. In Texas, eligibility for expungement depends on the specifics of the charge and its outcome. Certain eligible offenses include dismissed cases, certain juvenile illegal activities, and acquitted charges. If you are eligible, the process typically involves filing a petition with the court and attending a hearing. It's important to consult with a knowledgeable theft attorney to understand your options and the likelihood of success in obtaining an expungement. Smith & Vinson Law Firm can guide you through this process to help clear your name and improve your future prospects.

A theft conviction can have profound effects on your future, impacting your employment opportunities, educational prospects, and housing applications. Many employers conduct background checks and a conviction might raise concerns about trustworthiness. In terms of education, scholarships and financial aid can be at risk, especially if the program has moral conduct clauses. Additionally, landlords may be hesitant to rent to individuals with criminal records. You need a theft attorney on your side.

Being falsely accused of theft can be distressing, but it is crucial to remain composed and seek legal counsel immediately. Document your version of events as soon as possible while the details are fresh in your mind. Collect any evidence that can support your claim, such as receipts, witness testimonies, or surveillance footage. Avoid speaking to law enforcement without a lawyer present, as anything you say can be used as evidence against you. Contact Smith & Vinson Law Firm to discuss how our theft attorneys in Austin can help build a strong defense to clear your name and protect your rights.
