Historic Record Sealing Granted for 16 Separate Cases

See Results Document
← Back to Case Filter

Case Summary

Our client faced 16 total felony charges across two separate arrests over two years. The allegations included multiple counts of Worthless Checks under Florida Statute § 832.05(2)(b), Insufficient Funds Checks under § 832.05(4)(a), and Failure to Appear under § 843.15(1)(b). The client’s legal history involved an unusually high volume of indictments tied to financial transactions, typically seen as a barrier to record sealing. However, our legal team undertook a meticulous, extraordinary petition process to unify and address all 16 charges in a single record sealing effort. After 24 months of legal coordination, documentation, and advocacy, the Honorable Judge John Jay Gontarek granted the petition in Okaloosa County. This represents the most charges ever successfully sealed in a single petition in Florida’s history. This case demonstrates our firm's ability to overcome complex and large-scale legal challenges—helping clients rebuild their lives, even in the most record-heavy scenarios.

  • It was a great experience working with David on a previous case. He really goes above and beyond and provides great service. He was able to get everything done in less than 4 months at a very reasonable price. His current payment plan, Pay Later is a great option!
