CROPs (Certificate of Restoration of Opportunity)

CROPs is short for Certification of Restoration of Opportunity. Washington has this Certificate available if you do not qualify for an expungement or are unable to have a conviction vacated. It is really designed to help people who have no other options left.

With CROPs, you are able to petition the court to be declared rehabilitated thus removing many of the negative consequences of your past. A judge will review your case and decide whether or not your requests will be granted. This is a recent development in the law, and it is an extremely important change that will impact many people throughout the state. If you have previously tried to have a crime removed from your record and learned that there was nothing a lawyer could do for you, call our office today to see if CROPs can change your situation.
