Krueger to host free record expungement clinic Thursday, May 9

Appointments, starting at 6 p.m., are required

BROOKHAVEN, April 15 – State Rep. Leanne Krueger, D-Delaware, is hosting a free Clean Slate Expungement Clinic with Legal Aid of Southeastern Pennsylvania beginning at 6 p.m. on Thursday, May 9 at Brookhaven Municipal Center.

Attorneys will be available to provide information and discuss options that may be available for clearing a person’s criminal record. If expungement is not an option, additional resources will be available.

Registration for the free service is required. Interested residents can ask a question or sign up for appointments, which start at 6 p.m., by calling Krueger’s office at 610-534-6880 or emailing RepKrueger@pahouse.net. People seeking expungement would need to bring case information, including a copy of court records and orders and must not currently be in violation or on probation/parole.  

“A single mistake shouldn’t determine the rest of your life, so I want to make sure that people know there are new options to seal minor offenses that might be keeping them from housing, employment or other opportunities,” Krueger said. “At this clinic, residents can talk with experts and receive important information about Pennsylvania’s clean slate laws, which passed the House and Senate with bipartisan support.”

Krueger and her office staff will be at the clinic to provide information on state-related programs and services.

Brookhaven Municipal Center is located at 2 Cambridge Road, Brookhaven.
