Huge THANK YOU to Rasa for helping me take care of my 2nd expungement. When I received my certificates I planned on completing this myself but between working two jobs and being a full time parent for my toddler, time flew by. Before I knew it my certificates were going to expire. I called Noella Ciara and Amy and they jumped on this and got it completed for me. They made this simple for me and handled all the work.
THANK YOU GUYS SOOOO MUCH!!! If you need help with your expungement, contact Rasa. They are incredible.DG
I reached out to Rasa Legal to learn about options for expunging a few records I had from college. Rasa was able to clearly present me all of my options, in a zero pressure way. With Utah’s new Clean Slate program I had the option of waiting for auto clearance or going through the petition-based process. I chose the latter, and chose to have Rasa represent me and could not have had a better experience. Rasa was very communicative through the whole process and was a very cost-effective option compared to other firms in the state. I would not hesitate to recommend Rasa to anyone that is looking for expungement services in the state of Utah.

got questions?
How do you get a criminal record expunged in Utah?
To expunge many Utah records you have to ask the court by filing a petition. First, you apply to the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI) for a Certificate of Eligibility. Then you file a petition with the court. A judge decides whether to grant it. Some Utah records are cleared automatically under the Clean Slate law. Rasa can handle every step for you.
What is automatic expungement in Utah?
Utah's Clean Slate law clears some records on its own, with no petition. It applies to certain dismissed cases and some lower-level convictions after a set time without new offenses. Utah was the second state to pass a Clean Slate law. Not every record qualifies for automatic expungement in Utah.
How do you know if your record was automatically expunged in Utah?
Your Utah record may not show it clearly. You can request a copy of your criminal history from Utah BCI to see what is still there. Rasa's free tool can also show what appears on your Utah record and what may still need a petition.
How long do you have to wait to expunge a record in Utah?
Utah waiting periods depend on the most serious offense. Waiting periods for petition expungement in Utah are generally 3 years for a class C misdemeanor, 4 years for a class B misdemeanor, 5 years for a class A misdemeanor, and 7 years for most felonies. The clock usually starts after you finish your sentence.
What is a Certificate of Eligibility in Utah?
A Certificate of Eligibility is a document from Utah BCI. It shows that a case meets the basic rules for expungement. In most Utah cases, you need this certificate before you can file an expungement petition with the court. BCI charges a fee to apply.
What is a 402 reduction in Utah?
A 402 reduction lowers the level of a Utah conviction. For example, a felony may become a misdemeanor. It is named after Utah Code 76-3-402. A 402 reduction can help someone in Utah get out of felony status or become eligible for expungement. A judge decides whether to grant it.
Can a felony be reduced to a misdemeanor in Utah?
Yes, in some cases. Utah's 402 reduction lets a court lower a conviction by one or two levels. This can change a felony to a misdemeanor. Utah courts look at the offense, the sentence, and whether probation was completed. Rasa offers 402 reductions in Utah for $500 per case.
Can you expunge a dismissed case in Utah?
Yes. Many dismissed cases in Utah can be expunged. Some cases dismissed with prejudice may clear automatically. Cases dismissed without prejudice may need a waiting period or a petition. Rasa's tool can show how dismissed cases appear on your Utah record.
Can you expunge a plea in abeyance in Utah?
Often, yes. A plea in abeyance that was later dismissed is treated much like a dismissed case in Utah. Some may clear automatically. Others need a petition. Rasa's licensed legal team can review a Utah plea in abeyance case and explain the options.
Can you expunge a DUI in Utah?
Many DUI convictions can be expunged in Utah after a waiting period. DUI cases have their own rules, including longer waiting periods in some situations. Some offenses can never be expunged in Utah. Rasa's legal team can review a Utah DUI case and explain whether it may qualify.
How many convictions can you expunge in Utah?
Utah has limits on how many convictions a person can expunge. The limits depend on the number and type of cases. Having several cases does not always rule you out. A 402 reduction can sometimes help people in Utah fit within the case limits.
Can you expunge a Utah record if you still owe fines or restitution?
In most cases, you must pay court-ordered restitution before you can expunge a Utah record. Utah law has changed how some unpaid fines and fees affect expungement. Rasa's licensed legal team can explain what may still need to be paid on a Utah case.
Will an expunged record show up on a background check in Utah?
An expunged Utah record is removed from public court records and state criminal history. Utah also notifies the FBI. Most employers and landlords should not see an expunged case. Some agencies can still access it. Private data companies may have older copies.
Do you have to tell an employer about an expunged record in Utah?
In most cases, no. Utah law lets people answer as if an expunged case never happened. There are some exceptions, such as certain government jobs, law enforcement jobs, and some professional licenses. Rasa's legal team can explain the exceptions.
How do you get a pardon in Utah?
Utah pardons come from the Utah Board of Pardons and Parole. A pardon forgives a conviction. People in Utah often seek a pardon when a case cannot be expunged. The Board reviews each application and makes the final decision. Click here to learn more about the Utah pardon process.
How much does expungement cost in Utah?
Rasa charges $500 per case for expungement in Utah. That price includes full legal help and filing fees. A traditional Utah attorney often charges about $1,500 per case. Checking your Utah record with Rasa's tool is free.
How long does expungement take in Utah?
Utah expungement often takes several months. You first wait for a Certificate of Eligibility from BCI. Then the court reviews the petition. Timing depends on BCI and the court. Rasa cannot promise a timeline, but Rasa keeps you updated through an online case tracker.
How do you find out if you qualify for expungement in Utah?
You can use Rasa's free online tool. It takes about 3 minutes and shows what is on your Utah record and what may be eligible for expungement or reduction. For $25, Rasa's licensed legal team can review the results and explain your Utah options.
What does Rasa’s eligibility screening tool do?
The eligibility screening tool is a quick way to get a complete picture of most Utah, Pennsylvania, and Arizona criminal records that might be out there. It provides you with a comprehensive report showing your cases and what your record clearance options are. We believe in providing you with all the available information we can.
Do I have to hire Rasa if I use the eligibility screening tool?
No. If you have cases that are eligible for some type of record clearance, you will have the option to hire Rasa as your lawyer to help you clear your records. We provide low-cost, simple, and transparent pricing. However, there is no obligation to hire Rasa, and you can also take your results elsewhere and do whatever you like with them. We believe in putting you in control of your records.
What does it cost to have Rasa represent me?
Unlike traditional law firms that typically charge somewhere between $1,500 to $3,000 per record, Rasa offers low-cost, clear pricing for all of our services. We are able to make legal services much more affordable because our sophisticated software streamlines many of the manual steps associated with the record clearance process.
What is a legal review?
In some cases, the records we receive from the courts might be missing some key information to confirm your eligibility fully, such as probation end dates, close dates, legal financial obligations or sentencing information. In a legal review, one of our specialists will thoroughly research your records and fill in any missing information. Once all the information has been verified, our lawyer will confirm your eligibility and give guidance on the best legal strategy for your situation.
