My boyfriend and I attended Team Child's Juvenile Record Sealing Clinic in Seattle. Recently he had been denied a job and was unaware that Juvenile records weren't automatically sealed upon reaching 18 and it truly devastated him to be turned down for something that happened so long ago in his past. I quickly googled "How to seal a Juvenile record" online and didn't get many hits besides lawyers looking for a fee to help you through the complicated process. I some how happened to find Team child's website hidden away in a link online and it was the miracle I'd been looking for.
Kendra was very helpful and gave us quick responses via e-mail. She notified us of a FREE Sealing Clinic that happens every first Wednesday of every month. When we attended we were greeted warmly by her and other volunteer staff from the college. They helped us fill out the forms and all we really did was ask questions and sign the paperwork. It was all very quick process which was great. We were notified that they would process all the papers for us and we didn't even have to show up in court for the hearing. All in all it's about a 3 week process to get it all done and I'm so grateful for this clinic!
I'm just surprised that there aren't any reviews or information on this great service so I decided to write a review for them. They also have many other legal child services.
