Under Virginia's current expungement law, even with the help of a lawyer, expunging a criminal record often takes at least nine months, and sometimes much longer. Because the new law includes automatic sealing, some records will be sealed on a monthly basis, as soon as they become eligible.
How to Obtain an Expungement File the petition with a certified copy of the criminal charges. Serve the prosecutor with a copy of the petition and a certified copy of the charges. Obtain a complete set of fingerprints from a law enforcement agency.
You are allowed to pursue your case “pro se,” meaning without an attorney. The court might provide the forms you need to file the petition. However, the process of expunging a criminal record can be challenging. You could lose your case if you don't follow the appropriate steps or complete the paperwork correctly.
In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed a new law that will greatly expand eligibility for record sealing. Non-convictions, many misdemeanor convictions, and some felony convictions will be eligible for sealing, and some of these records will be automatically sealed instead of the typical court process.
Recording Over-The-Counter All documents must include the Fairfax Land Records' cover sheet. All documents presented for recordation must be the original, signed and notarized documents.
