More details to this question:
I have single misdemeanor (m1) few years back all probation and everything done (ROR and early release). The only thing on record (other than a speeding ticket which should be gone soon as well). I am interested in getting it removed quickly (preferably under a year), if possible.

If you were convicted of a summary offense and have 5 years of arrest free behavior, you can expunge the summary. You need to determine what you were convicted of to be certain on how to proceed. You may want to obtain your criminal history from the PA state police and take it to a lawyer for review.
