With over 35 years of experience as a criminal defense attorney, former prosecutor, and public defender, Mark F. Walmer has become one of Pennsylvania’s most trusted names in pardon and expungement services. Driven by a deep commitment to helping those burdened by a criminal record, Mark has shifted his focus to aiding clients in clearing their records and navigating the complexities of the Board of Pardons process.
Not only does Mark actively bring numerous cases to the Board of Pardons each year, but he was also one of two private attorneys in Pennsylvania selected by the Board’s Secretary to provide input on the new online pardon application form. This involvement in shaping Pennsylvania’s pardon process highlights a small portion of Attorney Walmer’s dedication to creating meaningful change in the criminal justice system.
After being shadowed by a crime I committed 25 years ago I finally went through the pardon process and received my pardon! I would highly recommend Record Eraser! Mark guided me through the whole process all the way! and did an outstanding job! I feel like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders! Again, I highly recommend this firm! Thanks again Mark! You are the man!
Pennsylvania expungements can be filed at the County Court level. The petition can be prepared and filed within 30 days. The Court may take 30 days to review it; the District Attorneys may wish to take a position on the petition. Once the Court signs the Order, it must be circulated to the appropriate agencies, who are supposed to respond within 30 days, although they are currently backlogged.
No. Depending on which expungement is applicable, the PA District Attorney’s office may support the expungement, oppose the expungement, or ask for a hearing, after which the Court decides. Don’t go at it alone. We can help you!
