If a past arrest or conviction is holding you back in Central Point, you may qualify to set it aside under Oregon law. We help eligible clients pursue expungement (set-aside) under ORS 137.225, with clear steps, predictable timelines, and filings handled in Jackson County Circuit Court.
Central Point is growing fast. From employers along Table Rock Road to opportunities throughout the Rogue Valley, background checks are routine. A record that shows up can affect jobs, housing, and even firearm eligibility.
We represent clients in Central Point, Jackson County, and the greater Medford area, helping them petition the court to set aside eligible arrests and convictions. Our focus is Oregon law, and we handle expungements statewide.
Many Central Point employers run background checks. When a case is set aside under ORS 137.225, you can lawfully state in most situations that the arrest or conviction did not occur.
Landlords in Central Point and across Jackson County often screen applicants. Clearing an eligible record can remove a major obstacle.
An expungement doesn’t erase history, but it seals the case from public view. For many people, that means fewer barriers and a real second chance.
We review your criminal history, including Jackson County cases and Oregon State Police (OSP) records, to confirm whether you qualify under ORS 137.225.
We obtain required court documents and confirm waiting periods, discharge dates, and compliance with sentencing terms.
We draft and file the motion to set aside in the appropriate court—typically Jackson County Circuit Court for Central Point residents.
We handle proper filing and notify required agencies, including the district attorney’s office.
Some cases are decided without a hearing. If a hearing is scheduled, we prepare you and present the petition.
After the court signs the order, records are updated through Oregon State Police. We track the process and explain next steps.

Free consultation — we’ll review your eligibility and outline your next steps.
1. Free Consultation
We review your history and determine eligibility under Oregon’s expungement statute.
2. Record Collection
We gather court and OSP records and confirm all eligibility requirements are met.
3. Petition Drafting & Filing
Your motion to set aside is filed with the proper court serving Central Point and Jackson County.
4. Waiting Period & Review
The district attorney has time to object. Some cases move forward without a hearing.
5. Court Order & Record Update
If granted, the court issues an order. OSP updates records, and the case is sealed from public view.
Typical timeline: Many Central Point expungements fall within a few months from complete intake to order, though court backlogs and objections can affect timing.
If your goal is to restore firearm rights in addition to clearing your record, we can discuss a coordinated approach.
Costs depend on the number of cases, the court involved, and record retrieval fees. We provide a clear fee outline after reviewing your eligibility. Oregon eliminated the court filing fee for most set-asides, but OSP record fees may still apply.
Many cases take several months from filing to final order. Jackson County’s schedule and whether the district attorney objects can affect timing.
Some convictions qualify under ORS 137.225, while others do not. Eligibility depends on the offense type, waiting period, and your record since the case closed. We review this during your consultation.
Not automatically in every case. Clearing a conviction may remove certain prohibitions, but firearm restoration can require a separate petition under ORS 166.274. We review both issues together when needed.
Many set-aside motions are granted without a hearing. If a hearing is scheduled in Jackson County Circuit Court, we prepare you and appear with you.
