Do you have an arrest record in Broward County?

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

The Broward State Attorney’s Office is hosting a free arrest record sealing and expungement workshop from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. on October 5 at the E. Pat Larkins Community Center, 520 NW 3rd St, Pompano Beach, FL 33060. Broward State Attorney Harold F. Pryor is hosting the event in partnership with the Broward County Clerk of Courts, the Broward Sheriff’s Office, and the Office of Mayor Rex Hardin of the City of Pompano Beach. Thank you to sponsors Greenspoon Marder, LLP, and Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., Fort Lauderdale Alumni.

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 you 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.
