ExpungementGuru.com is not a law firm, and the employees of ExpungementGuru are not acting as your attorney. ExpungementGuru's document service is not a substitute for the advice of an attorney.
ExpungementGuru cannot provide legal advice and can only provide self-help forms and instruction services at your specific direction.
ExpungementGuru is not permitted to engage in the practice of law. ExpungementGuru is prohibited from providing any kind of advice, explanation, opinion, or recommendation to a consumer about possible legal rights, remedies, defenses, options, selection of forms or strategies.
This site is not intended to create an attorney-client relationship, and by using ExpungementGuru, no attorney-client relationship will be created with ExpungementGuru. Instead, you are representing yourself in any legal matter you undertake through ExpungementGuru's document service.
ExpungementGuru provides online legal forms and form completion instructions generally found in the public domain.
ExpungementGuru's document service also includes a review of your answers for completeness, spelling and grammar, as well as internal consistency of names, addresses and the like. At no time do we review your answers for legal sufficiency, draw legal conclusions, provide legal advice or apply the law to the facts of your particular situation. ExpungementGuru and its services are not a substitute for the advice of an attorney.
Although ExpungementGuru takes every reasonable effort to ensure that the information on our website and documents are up-to-date and legally sufficient, the legal information on this site is not legal advice and is not guaranteed to be correct, complete or up-to-date. Because the law changes rapidly, is different from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and is also subject to varying interpretations by different courts and certain government and administrative bodies, ExpungementGuru cannot guarantee that all the information on the site is completely current. The law is a personal matter, and no general information or legal tool like the kind ExpungementGuru provides can fit every circumstance.
Therefore, if you need legal advice for your specific problem, or if your specific problem is too complex to be addressed by our tools, you should consult a licensed attorney in your area.

What personally identifiable information does Expungement Guru collect from me?
Expungement Guru collects information in several ways from different parts of our network of web sites.
Some personal information is gathered when you register. During registration, Expungement Guru asks all users for your name, email address, city, occupation, industry and personal interests. Once you register you are no longer anonymous to Expungment Guru.
In addition to possibly asking you to register we may also ask you for personal information at other times, including (but not limited to) when you enter a sweepstakes, contest or promotion sponsored by Expungement Guru and/or our many partners. If you contact Expungement Guru we may keep a record of that correspondence. Expungement Guru also occasionally asks users to complete surveys that we use for research purposes.
