Non-disclosure. And depending on the county, we may be able to help you. They are usually $2k-$2500.

In Texas, the code of criminal procedure allows for non disclosure of arrests that were disposed of by successfully completing deferred adjudication. Provided you have no new arrests and five years have passed since the dismissal, you should be able to hire someone to file the non disclosure petition.
