True or false. Do you have to go to court for expungements of your record if you have already hired a lawyer?

What do you mean true or false , this is a question you are asking, but I would say YES aka TRUE.True or false. Do you have to go to court for expungements of your record if you have already hired a lawyer?
True.





Records may be expunged by judical judgement or statute.





You need to know the law for your specific State.





Go to Google. Put in YOUR STATE. Then add .. expunge legal records.





You may have to search through the links - but you will find more legal information about your own State.True or false. Do you have to go to court for expungements of your record if you have already hired a lawyer?
Yes you do.
true
It depends on the procedures in your state. In some states, you sign the petition asking for expungement, include the supporting documentation, file it and the court makes the decision without anyone going to court.





In other states that require a hearing, if you have a lawyer, they can go to the hearing and you can stay home.





In other states, you will have to go to court with your lawyer.





If you have a lawyer now, ask them this question!
Is your lawyer your lawyer for the purpose of doing an expungement? Is he/she telling you you need to appear?
True
