Were you arrested when you attended Auburn University, Southern Union, or lived in the Auburn, Alabama or Lee County, Alabama area?

If so, you need an Auburn, Alabama Expungement Lawyer. The Attorneys at McCollum and Wilson, P.C. can have your Auburn, Alabama record expunged. Expungement lawyers define the term Expungement as “To blot out; to efface designedly; to obliterate; to strike out wholly.”

Individuals in Auburn, Alabama or who previously resided in Auburn, Alabama will be able to apply for an Expungement in Circuit Court, regardless of the venue the original offense was adjudicated. If granted by a Judge, those eligible records would cease to be available to the public in court records, police records and on National Crime Information Center background checks.
