Expungements and Appeals

Alexandria Expungement Lawyers

A criminal record can have a damaging effect on your career and job prospects. Even for charges that were acquitted or dismissed, a criminal investigation or an arrest can have negative consequences in the current, competitive job market. Some crimes can be expunged, or removed, from your record, but this varies by state and individual jurisdiction. If you are concerned about your criminal record, an experienced lawyer can help you determine if you are eligible for an expungement.

At Johnson/Citronberg, PLLC, we represent clients with a wide range of criminal law matters, including those related to expungement of criminal records. With extensive knowledge of state and municipal statutes, our Alexandria expungement attorneys can examine your situation to determine if you are eligible for expungement. If you are, and you choose to pursue expungement, they will advise and counsel you at every step of the legal process.

Experienced Fairfax Appeals Attorneys

Appeals can be complex and require assistance from an experienced attorney who is intimately familiar with the appellate process.

Our attorneys have extensive experience litigating complex legal issues before both state and federal appellate courts. We are often called upon to handle appeals where we were not trial counsel and to represent individuals who have exhausted their appeals and must pursue other avenues to challenge their convictions. We have successfully overturned convictions or sentences in the Virginia Court of Appeals and Supreme Court as well as several federal circuits and the United States Supreme Court.

In addition to direct appeals, our lawyers represent clients in habeas corpus proceedings and have succeeded in overturning convictions as well as reducing previously imposed sentences. Our ability to formulate and articulate creative, concise and persuasive legal arguments allows us to achieve favorable results for our clients.
