As you probably noticed Ms. Henley practices in Houston. She is a very experienced criminal attorney and is well-equipped to handle this for you.

   You can hire a lawyer to file a petition for nondisclosure (seal) which will hide your record. You need to pay a lawyer and the filing fee. Having this on your record could affect your efforts to get a job.
