Attorney General Nessel looks to help non violent offenders with expungement fair

MARQUETTE, Mich. (WZMQ) – Attorney General Dana Nessel hosted an expungement fair today to offer Michigan residents a free opportunity to review their criminal convictions with on-site volunteer attorneys for potentially expungable convictions. Having criminal convictions expunged can aid a resident in securing employment, housing, and other benefits available to those without a criminal record.

The department began hosting expungement fairs in 2021 and this year alone have helped over 3200 at 16 different expungement fairs.

“Expungements can offer a fresh start to Michigan residents with eligible, non-assaultive convictions, and my Department is excited to bring an expungement fair to Marquette,” Nessel said. “We’ve seen how impactful events like these have been for Michiganders across the state looking to foster a future of hope and new beginnings. Thanks to our partners and volunteers, I know this event will also be successful.” 

Although the expungements are not processed today, people can talk to an attorney and start the process of expungement, which can be daunting to many.
