Can cleaning up your criminal record truly transform your future? In this episode, I share my personal journey through the challenges of a DWI arrest and the pivotal moment I discovered the power of record expungement. You'll learn about the two primary methods available in Texas to clear your record: expunction and non-disclosure. Understand how expunction, the gold standard, can allow you to deny your arrest ever happened by destroying all records, and discover the eligibility criteria such as case dismissal, completion of a pre-trial diversion program, or being found not guilty at trial. We'll also walk you through the process of obtaining an expunction, from filing a petition to securing a judge's signature.

For those who may not qualify for expunction, we dive into the benefits of obtaining an order of non-disclosure, especially if you've completed deferred adjudication or have misdemeanor convictions like DWI. Learn how an order of non-disclosure can effectively shield your past from most private employers and housing background checks, covering about 80% of scenarios. If you're unsure about your eligibility or the steps to clean up your record, this episode is a must-listen. Take proactive steps to reclaim your future opportunities and peace of mind. Join us to explore these processes and understand how they can pave the way for a fresh start.
