What Is an Expungement in Oklahoma?
An expungement is a legal process that seals your criminal record from public view. Once your record is expunged, most employers, landlords, and background checks will no longer be able to see the arrest or conviction. You can lawfully answer “no” when asked if you’ve been convicted in many cases.
There are two main types in Oklahoma:
- Section 18 Expungement:
Complete sealing of court and arrest records
- Section 991c Expungement:
Dismissal of a deferred sentence
We’ll help you understand which one applies to your situation.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How long does the expungement process take?
Most expungements take 2–6 months, depending on the court and whether there are objections from law enforcement or prosecutors.
Will an expungement erase my record completely?
Once granted, your record is sealed from public access. Law enforcement may still be able to view it, but private employers and landlords typically cannot.
Can I get an expungement if I’ve had multiple arrests or convictions?
It depends on the type and timing of the charges. We’ll review your full record and determine what can be expunged.
Do I need a lawyer to file for expungement?
You’re not required to have one, but the legal process is technical. A lawyer can improve your chances, especially if the case is contested or complicated.
What’s the cost to file for expungement in Oklahoma?
There are court filing fees and service costs, but we’ll explain all your expenses up front. Our office offers flat-rate pricing for many expungement cases.
