The 5 phases of expunction and nondisclosure — what happens, how long it takes, and what we handle for you.
Every Texas expungement and nondisclosure runs through the same 5 phases. Here's what each one actually involves — and what we handle for you so you don't have to.
We run a statewide background check, pull the records the courts and employers see, and confirm which offenses qualify for expunction, nondisclosure, or limited expunction. You get a direct answer — no guesswork, no sales pressure.
Once you're in, we draft your petition and all supporting documents. You review and sign electronically. We take care of the clerk filings, filing fees, and procedural requirements for every affected county.
Petition is filed with the appropriate Texas district court. The clerk sets a hearing date. The DA and any arresting agencies are served — this is the required waiting period.
99% of uncontested petitions are granted by the judge without a hearing — the order is simply signed in chambers. In most cases you do not need to show up, or if you must show up, you can appear via Zoom.
