Want to Expunge Your Illinois Record?

Get a Criminal Background Check

Could a criminal background check help you?

Employers, property owners and creditors often conduct background checks. It’s a pretty common practice – and they do it because they want to see whether you’re someone they’re comfortable hiring you, renting to you or lending you money. In some cases, a criminal record can disqualify you from doing the things you want to do.

And it doesn’t matter if you’ve made serious changes, or that you’re not even the same person you were when you made mistakes in the past.

Sometimes a criminal history is all people pay attention to, even when it’s no longer relevant to who you are.

Here’s how a background check could help you:

An Illinois Background Check Can

HELP YOU MOVE FORWARD

You want a fresh start, and you certainly deserve one. But unfortunately, not everyone is eligible for criminal record clearing in Illinois.

The best way to find out if you are eligible is through a background check. That way, you’ll know whether you qualify to expunge or seal your record – the state determines who’s eligible based on what the record contains.

How to Get an Illinois Criminal

BACKGROUND CHECK

It can be difficult to conduct your own Illinois criminal background check. Each agency that has a copy of your records has its own procedures, and you might be required to submit fingerprints, show up at certain times in certain offices, and file paperwork to request your records. In many cases, people turn to background check attorneys for help – and that way, they don’t have to figure out which agency needs which information, how much it costs, and what steps to take.
