Expungement in Michigan: Understanding the “Clean Slate” Laws

In this episode of the Kelly & Kelly Law Podcast, Kevin from Borealis Digital Marketing is joined once again by criminal defense attorney Mike Kelly to explore one of the most important updates in Michigan criminal law: the Clean Slate expungement laws. We break down what these laws mean for people with old criminal records including who qualifies for expungement, how automatic expungement differs from the application process, and why legal help is still crucial for navigating the process. Mike also explains the “One Bad Night” rule and which offenses remain ineligible under Michigan law. If you or someone you care about is looking for a fresh start, this episode is packed with need-to-know information about second chances under the new Michigan expungement rules.
