I received the paperwork granting the expungement today thank you so much for making this happen. It gives me great peace of mind to have this taken care of. I should have done it years ago! I am pleased that the process went exactly as you described, cost exactly the figure quoted, and most importantly, achieved a positive outcome. I began this process due to a recent career change and facing the typical background questions on employment questionnaires. This matter from the past has always bothered me, but addressing it in writing brought it back to the present. Now I can answer these questions with a clear conscience and no concern for how a background check will be interpreted. Thanks again for time and effort.

Mark & Janique, You were very honest and prompt in getting the paperwork started for my Expungement. I was arrested years ago and have worked very hard since those years in getting myself healed and improving my life. Those convictions were an extremely dark & black cloud over my life, even though they were just misdemeanors. The Lautenberg Act was greatly affecting my military career. Janique went out of her way to keep me informed of the progress, and to answer every question I had about my case. Once I received the orders granting my expungements, I could literally feel that darkness & weight go away. I feel like a new man, I can now freely mark NO, "I have never been arrested or convicted of any crime." I no longer carry the shame of being arrested!

To Mark, Jean and Associates: It is with my utmost appreciation that I would like to thank all of you for your hard work and dedication in dealing with my cases. I cannot express to you in words how satisfied I am with the outcome of this dreadful ordeal. As you know the one charge we were all concerned about, especially myself, was dismissed due to the evidence provided to the District Attorney which was made available through the professionalism and hard-work of Jean and Mark together. These past few months have been exasperating for my family and I and for all us. It has been a very financially demanding while for my father and I am extremely glad to see that his finances were truly applied in our best interests. As for myself this has been a most unfortunate series of events that has been beneficially life altering. Not only has it made me realize the importance and adoration of freedom itself, but it has given me a true motivation and guide towards who I really want to become and what I really want to do with my life, short term and long term. And I can assure you that none of it involves police, probation, jail or any of the other horrible things that come with crossing blades with the law, so to speak. So with that said, I hope you don't take offense when I say I truly hope I would not require your services again, but God forbid I did, you would all undoubtedly be my first choice for defense. My deepest regards and best wishes to all of you.
