so i left a post yester day about what might happen when some did a background check on me. like i was saying in about a year i have to take a state exam to become licsenced and registered. prior to the test they would do a background check on us. i have no convictions but i do have an arrest for petty theft. i was wondering if i should or could get it expunged and if so how is the whole procedure to get it done. do i need a lawyer. how much might it all cost. how long will it take. i would need this off my reocrd by next year. what else would i need to know about gettin my record expunged.
