Unfortunately under current Virginia law, any charge or offense where you are found guilty cannot be expunged from your criminal record. Only matters that are dismissed, nolle prossed, or otherwise disposed of in a way where guilt is not determined may be expunged. You may be eligible for clemency through the Secretary of the Commonwealth.
