A criminal record can impede a person’s ability to find employment, secure housing, go to school and more long after they have completed their sentence. This training will prepare attorneys to assist low-income clients with sealing and expungement of criminal records on a pro bono basis. Attendees will also be trained on identifying and eliminating implicit bias. This CLE is free to those willing to take two expungement and/or sealing cases pro bono from Land of Lincoln Legal Aid.
