Annapolis Expungement & Pardon Attorneys

A criminal record can follow you for years — affecting employment, housing, and professional licensing. At Cochran & Chhabra, we help eligible clients clear their records through Maryland’s expungement and pardon processes so they can move forward.

Maryland Expungement Services

Maryland law allows certain criminal charges and convictions to be expunged from your record. Eligibility depends on the type of offense, the outcome of the case, and how much time has passed. Our attorneys evaluate your record, determine which charges qualify, and handle the entire petition process.

Governor’s Pardon Assistance

For convictions that cannot be expunged, a Governor’s pardon may be an option. While a pardon does not erase a conviction, it is an official act of forgiveness that can restore certain rights and demonstrate rehabilitation. We guide clients through the pardon application process from start to finish.

Who Qualifies?

Expungement eligibility in Maryland includes cases that resulted in acquittal, dismissal, nolle prosequi, or probation before judgment. Certain waiting periods apply for guilty pleas and convictions. Our team reviews your full criminal history to identify every opportunity for relief.
