DeVetter Law at Your Side:
Nancy DeVetter is one of the few expungement experts in the State of Georgia and will help you navigate the intricacies of your situation. Our services will cover investigating your legal options and assisting you with completing forms to expunge your criminal record. We will review your official criminal history, determine your eligibility for record restriction, and guide you in filling out the necessary forms. The legal services offered are free, but any applicable filing or processing fees will be the attendees responsibility. We cannot guarantee specific outcomes, and our representation ends at the conclusion of the clinic.
Empower Yourself:
Prior to attending our clinic, we encourage you to complete the following forms to streamline your journey:
At this clinic, we can help you with:

At this clinic, we cannot help you with:

- Assisting you with expungements outside of the state of Georgia (though we can still help you with restoration of rights if you live in Georgia and your conviction was outside of Georgia)
- Assisting you with early termination of parole or parole-related issues
- Representing you in a pending criminal case, criminal appeal, or traffic tickets
- Advising you on issues that are not related to criminal records
We will contact you: at the time of the next clinic by phone OR by email AFTER the next clinic when we’ve received and reviewed your GCIC report.
