About AZ Record Removal
Helping You Move Forward
At AZ Record Removal, we focus on helping individuals move forward by reducing or removing the impact of criminal records. Our firm is dedicated to guiding clients through the legal processes available under Arizona law, including record sealing, set asides, expungement, restoring firearm rights, designating to misdemeanor, and terminate probation early.
We represent clients throughout Arizona, helping individuals take meaningful steps toward new opportunities, greater stability, and a stronger future.
Our Mission: Second Chances Start Here
AZ Record Removal was built on a simple belief:
Your past should not define your future and life is better without a criminal record.
A criminal record can affect employment, housing, education, and many other areas of life. Even after a case is resolved, the long-term impact can remain unless you do something about it.
Our mission is to help individuals take advantage of the legal options available to them so they can move forward with confidence. We work with clients to identify the best path toward clearing or reducing the visibility of their criminal record and complete every step of the process for them.

Criminal Record Removal Services We Provide
AZ Record Removal focuses on helping individuals throughout Arizona pursue legal options that may reduce or eliminate the impact of a criminal record. Eligibility depends on the type of offense and individual case history.
Sealing Records
Record sealing may allow individuals to limit public access to certain criminal records. Although sealed records are not visible to the public, they may still be accessible to law enforcement and certain agencies, and disclosure may still be required in specific situations. This can make it easier to apply for jobs, housing, and other opportunities.
Set Asides
A set aside allows the judge to set aside a conviction after the completion of a sentence. While it does not erase or seal the record, it dismisses the case and can demonstrate rehabilitation and improve future opportunities. Essentially, instead of your case being listed as guilty, it will be listed as “set aside.” Set-asides can also include restoration of firearm rights.
Expungement
In limited cases involving certain marijuana-related offenses, expungement may allow certain records to be removed. Our team helps clients understand whether they may be eligible and completes the process for them.
Restore Firearm Rights
This is the process of being allowed to possess firearms. Many people lose their firearms automatically once even being accused of a felony or domestic violence-related offense. Arizona says it has automatic restoration in some situations but it does not give you any kind of proof. We believe you must get proof through this process so that way you don’t end up in trouble in the future.
Designate to Misdemeanor
This is the process to take a felony or an undesignated offense and reduce it to a misdemeanor-level offense. At the end of your case, once you have successfully completed your sentence, the judge must approve it as it is not automatic.
Terminate Probation Early
This is the process in which those who are on probation, typically for felonies, are eligible to end their probation early once they have completed all of the requirements and at least 50% of their probation length has been completed. The judge must approve this termination. The sooner probation is over, the sooner you’re eligible for other record removal services.
