You can only petition to seal records from two sentencing events in your lifetime, so it's important to get it right. Let us review your record and help you plan. Call 757-895-7493.

Did you know some Virginia records now seal automatically?

Certain misdemeanors, like petit larceny, shoplifting, trespassing, and disorderly conduct, may seal on their own after 7 years with no new convictions. Ma*****na possession records are included too.

Not sure whether your record qualifies? We can help you find out. Call Cheryl Eddy Benn, P.C. at 757-895-7493.

Big news for Virginians with an old criminal record! 🎉

As of July 1, 2026, Virginia allows many past convictions to be sealed from public view. That means most employers, landlords, and the public will no longer see them on a background check.

If a past mistake has been holding you back, now may be the time to act. Call Cheryl Eddy Benn, P.C. at 757-895-7493 to learn your options.
