Understanding Oklahoma Record Expungement Law
Expungement is the legal process of sealing or destroying your criminal record so it is no longer visible to the public, employers, landlords, or licensing boards. Under Oklahoma law (Title 22, §18), you may be eligible to expunge arrests, dismissed charges, deferred sentences, and even certain convictions.
Once expunged, you can legally answer “No” to most background check questions about prior arrests or criminal history. The record is sealed — not just hidden. Employers, apartment managers, and licensing agencies will see nothing.
Attorney Billy Coyle personally evaluates every expungement case, identifies the correct eligibility pathway under current Oklahoma law, prepares all court documents, and handles every hearing on your behalf — so it’s done right the first time.
Even small mistakes in paperwork, wrong case numbers, improper service, or missed deadlines can result in your petition being denied. You may then have to wait years before reapplying. Attorney Billy Coyle ensures it is filed correctly the very first time.
