Kansas Expungement Attorney — Flat-Fee Record Clearing

For arrests and criminal charges that did not result in a conviction (dismissals, acquittals, diversions successfully completed), you may petition for expungement immediately or after a short waiting period depending on the specific disposition type.

For misdemeanor and class D or E felony convictions, you must wait three years from the date of satisfaction of the sentence (including completion of probation, payment of fines, and release from any period of incarceration) before you may petition for expungement.

For class A, B, or C felony convictions that are not on the list of excluded offenses, you must wait five years from the date of satisfaction of the sentence before petitioning. Class A felonies are rarely eligible in practice due to the seriousness of the underlying offenses.

You must have no pending criminal proceedings in any jurisdiction at the time of filing, must not have been convicted of a felony in the past two years, and must demonstrate to the court that you have been rehabilitated.

The court must find that expungement is consistent with the public welfare, considering factors including the petitioner's criminal history, the circumstances of the offense, and the time elapsed since completion of the sentence.

Kansas requires payment of a filing fee (separate from our service fee) and the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) charges a processing fee for each expungement order; both are billed at cost in addition to the flat service fee.
