In Indiana you are able to expunge all qualifying records. However, you may only file for expungement one time. Therefore, you need to include every record that you would like to have expunged in your petition. Also, you may need to submit multiple petitions at the same time, if the arrests or convictions occurred in different counties throughout Indiana. Once your records have been expunged, you can not petition again in the future. 

What is the expungement process like in Indiana?

Expunging or sealing your criminal record restores certain civil rights and allows you to move on with your life. If you believe you qualify for expungement, contact our legal team at XpungeIndy. We will review your record and let you know what your options are.

If you do, in fact qualify for expungement, we will start working on the petition (or petitions, if you need to file in multiple counties). Once we file, the prosecutor has the opportunity to accept the petition or to object and request a hearing. Our team will ensure you are fully prepared for both possibilities. If a hearing is required, we will present a compelling case to the judge about why your record should be expunged. The judge will make a final determination on whether you have met all the requirements for expungement. Once your records are expunged or sealed, they will not be available in public databases. It is possible that law enforcement could still access the records.
