Expungement attorneys
In Cape Town

Having a criminal record can hold you back from employment, travel, or rebuilding your life. At SLA Inc., our expungement attorneys in Cape Town help clients clear their criminal records through a legally guided expungement process, giving you a second chance at a clean start.

We handle every step, from eligibility checks to preparing and submitting applications to the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development.

What Is Criminal Record Expungement?

Expungement is a legal process that permanently removes certain criminal convictions from your record after a specific period, provided you meet the legal requirements.
Once expunged, your name is cleared from the Criminal Record Centre, and your past conviction will no longer appear in background checks.

Our attorneys guide you through the entire process to ensure your application is accurate, complete, and handled efficiently.

Who Qualifies for Expungement in South Africa?

You may qualify for criminal record expungement if:

  • 10 years have passed since the date of conviction.

  • You have not been convicted of another offence during that period.

  • The offence was not serious (e.g., no violent or sexual crimes).

  • The sentence was a fine, suspended sentence, or correctional supervision.

If you’re unsure whether your case qualifies, our Cape Town expungement attorneys can assess your eligibility and guide you on the best way forward.
