Expungement Lawyer in Morristown
Pursue Freedom From Past Mistakes
Expungement is the process of having criminal records sealed from availability to the public. Some of the most applicable ways that this can help you is if you are seeking employment, housing or other benefits where your employer or landlord will check your criminal record before hiring you. It is important for you to discuss this option with our law firm if you have been convicted of a crime in the past as we may be able to help you through this process and to open up a very bright future for you, which is unimpaired by a record that you incurred due to a past mistake.
According to Tennessee Code Annotated, individuals who qualify for record expungement include the following:
- A person who is exonerated by the governor
- An individual who was dismissed and the proceedings against this individual were discharged, unless the dismissal was for a sexual offense
- A first time offender other than for a sexual offense, and the offense was committed before the individual was 21 years of age
- An individual who has complied with the terms of judicial diversion
There are many other individuals who may qualify for expungement and there are other factors to consider when determining eligibility.

Mr. Bowlin represented me on an assault charge. My bond conditions wouldn't allow me to go home to my husband and children. The day after my arrest, on a Sunday, Troy met with me and my family to discuss my unfortunate arrest. The very next morning Mr. Bowlin was able to get my bond conditions lifted allowing me to go home to my family. His office went above and beyond the call of duty which resulted in a dismissal of my charge.- Former Client

A few years ago I was addicted to drugs. My addiction led me to steal and eventually I caught a few criminal charges. Troy Bowlin took my case. I spent time in jail for a little while as my bond was revoked. Troy immediately started working on getting me released and helping me through the release process. Troy was finally able to get me released to a 45-day rehab facility versus spending more time in jail. The rehab was a wonderful experience on my road to sobriety. Once I left rehab, the court appearances began. Troy was always present and on time. He would even be there early to discuss with me what would probably happen before court began. This was very comforting because when you are facing felony charges, court is very nerve-wracking. Troy was able to get me two years unsupervised probation. Based on the charges I had incurred this was short of a miracle. The two years gave me time to evaluate my life and become clean and sober. After the two years, Troy filed for judicial diversion. Once this was done, I have absolutely no charges on my record today. From where I started to where I ended up is all because of Troy's hard work. I find myself very lucky to have been blessed with this kind of caliber of lawyer. If it wasn't for Troy I would not be starting Nursing School in the fall. My future is bright now and my path is clear. If it was not for Troy I would not be as successful as I am now.- Former Client
