Update on Colorado criminal record seals (they're easier)

In our 5/12/16 post discussing the difficulty sealing criminal records in Colorado, we anticipated changes to the law making things easier.  

Indeed, in 2019, Colorado made significant changes to the various statutes addressing criminal record seals, overall greatly expanding the ability to seal such records.  It is now possible to (try to) seal more criminal convictions and related records especially at the misdemeanor and low- to mid-felony level.

Court action still is required.  Check out CRS 24-72-701 et seq. for the particulars.  And call or email us here at Sanderson Law, P.C. to help.
