Convictions That May Not Be Eligible

While Arizona offers strong options for cleaning up your record, certain convictions are excluded from these forms of relief under state law. These typically include:

Dangerous Offenses—Crimes involving the use or threat of a deadly weapon or serious physical injury—such as armed robbery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, or first-degree murder—are generally not eligible for expungement, sealing, or set-aside.
Crimes Against Children—Offenses like child molestation, child sex trafficking, and sexual exploitation of a minor are excluded from record relief programs.
Sexual Offenses—Convictions for sexual assault, public sexual indecency involving a minor, or similar charges usually cannot be expunged or sealed.
Repeat Felony Offenders—Individuals with multiple felony convictions, especially involving violence or dangerous drugs, may be ineligible or face additional restrictions.
Crimes Resulting in Serious Injury or Death—Offenses like vehicular manslaughter or aggravated DUI causing serious physical harm are often disqualified from record-cleanup options.

Each case is unique, and eligibility depends on the details of your conviction, how much time has passed, and your conduct since completing your sentence. Contact us today to schedule a free consultation to discuss your case and explore your options.
