I charge $800 (more if in another county.) This depends on the lawyer.

As long as adjudication was withheld, you may be able to get the records sealed and expunged. The cost of hiring an attorney for this will vary, but a reasonable fee would be around $1500, plus costs. Some do this for more, some for less.

You must pay an application fee of $25 to the State of Michigan. The court may also require court costs. At most court costs for hearing this case are not likely to exceed $300.

You cannot have a charge like that expunged or sealed. The record of the arrest and prosecution will be there forever.

That will vary based on the jurisdiction. In what court was the conviction entered.

You will need to go to the Bureau of Criminal Identification, pay $56 for your report history and a certificate of eligibility to obtain and expungement, then you will have some court fees to pay if you are eligible.

If a person had a domestic violence charge and pled no contest and/or was sentenced, even if adjudication was withheld, the charge cannot be expunged. DV charges are not eligible for sealing and only cases that were dropped (or sealed for 10 years) can be expunged.
