Do you have an arrest record in Broward County?

An arrest record can keep you from getting a job or renting a home and create other challenges.

The Broward State Attorney’s Office is hosting a one-stop arrest record sealing and expungement workshop from 3 to 7 p.m. on Friday, November 14, in the Broward County Courthouse, 3rd Floor Jury Room # 03320, 201 SE 6th Street, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301.

Broward State Attorney Harold F. Pryor and volunteers from our office are hosting the event in partnership with the Broward County Clerk of Courts and the Broward Sheriff’s Office. Thank you for sponsorship assistance from Greenspoon Marder LLP, the Broward County Bar Association, and The Westside Gazette.

Walk-ins are welcome. Please bring a valid ID.

FREE parking will be available ONLY in the jury parking garage at 540 SE 3rd Avenue, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301. The parking garage is on the NE corner of SE 3rd Avenue and SE 6th Street, on the EAST side of the courthouse. Vehicles must enter from the WEST SIDE of the parking garage (alongside the drawbridge), on SE 3rd Avenue. Please remember to bring the parking ticket you receive when you enter the garage to the workshop for validation.

After parking, take the pedestrian walkway from the 3rd floor of the garage to the 3rd floor of the courthouse, where the workshop will take place.

If you were charged with a crime in Broward County and the case did not result in a conviction, you may be eligible to have a single arrest record expunged. If you were charged with a crime in Broward County and received an adjudication withheld, that case may be eligible to be sealed.

Only cases that occurred in Broward County are eligible for review. Our staff and volunteers will help qualified applicants to complete the process.

Adult and juvenile walk-ins are welcome. Please bring a valid ID. More information here and at https://www.fdle.state.fl.us/seal-and-expunge-process/seal-and-expunge-home.aspx
