Navigating the Georgia criminal justice system can be confusing. Whether you’re researching expungement, a pardon, or gun rights restoration, the resources below will help you get started. And when you’re ready to talk to an attorney, we’re here — call 404-800-3030 for a free consultation.
Georgia does not technically “expunge” records — instead, the process is called “record restriction.” Restricted records are sealed from public view but still exist in the system. Law enforcement can still access them in certain circumstances.
Timelines vary depending on the type of case and the court involved, but most record restriction petitions take 60–90 days from filing to completion. Our office handles all filings and follow-up on your behalf.
Not automatically. Record restriction addresses your public criminal history, but gun rights restoration typically requires a separate legal process — either through the First Offender Act, a Retroactive First Offender petition, or a pardon. Learn more about gun rights restoration.
You may be eligible to have the arrest restricted from your record immediately. Georgia law generally allows record restriction for arrests that did not result in a conviction. Take our eligibility quiz to see if you qualify.
Our firm charges a flat fee for expungement cases — no hourly billing, no surprises. Call us at 404-800-3030 for current pricing.
