HOW CAN YOUR CRIMINAL RECORD AFFECT YOU
Laws in Texas allow for discrimination based on your criminal record:
  • companies can fire you at any moment without any prior notice if they find out that you have a conviction.
  • the law actually allows companies to deny you a job based solely on the reason that you were arrested. That's right, even if you were not convicted you can still be denied a job. This, of course, applies to those who were convicted too, no matter of the charge or of the circumstances.
  • your criminal record is available to anyone and by that we don't mean only your employer but also your co-workers. You can very easily be discriminated against based solely on some old and minor conviction.
  • landlords and public housing authorities can deny you your right to housing based solely on your criminal record.
  • the Higher Education Act, updated in 1998, can deny a student guilty of any drug related offense eligibility for grants, loans or work assistance.
  • almost all professional certifications require a background history check prior to their issuance.
  • it is very likely that if you want to adopt a child your criminal record will be taken into consideration.
  • all the youth volunteer jobs (coaching or training) require a clean criminal record.
By the expunction or sealing of your criminal record history you can proactively and permanently rid yourself of these headaches.

I was shocked to discover that a minor offense I committed over 20 years ago was stopping me from getting my dream job. Thank you Record Zapper for helping me get this mess cleaned up. I'm loving my new job and it's all because of you!
