Know which expungement leads have already closed their case
Confirm the case is fully closed, the client has stayed conviction-free since, and you have the state, court, and case number — before offering a consultation. Cliont also flags DUI, domestic violence, and sex-offense convictions that often need special review.
The exact intake your misdemeanor expungement leads complete
This is the real 8-question guided intake for Misdemeanor Expungement — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified misdemeanor expungement lead should tell you
Misdemeanor expungement clears or seals a completed misdemeanor conviction from a person's public record, and only qualifies once the sentence, probation, and any conditions are fully finished with no new convictions since.

The questions your team needs answered
Every misdemeanor expungement intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Is the misdemeanor conviction you want to clear from a court in the United States? | Confirms the conviction falls under U.S. state or federal court jurisdiction, since expungement procedures differ entirely outside the U.S. legal system. |
| Was the conviction classified as a misdemeanor (not a felony)? | Screens out felony convictions early, since felony expungement follows a different process and eligibility standard than misdemeanor expungement. |
| Do you want this misdemeanor expunged, sealed, or set aside — not fighting a new charge? | Separates true expungement requests from people who actually need defense on an active or new charge, which is a different intake path entirely. |
| Has your case fully ended — including any probation, fines, classes, or community service? | Most states require probation, fines, classes, and community service to be fully completed before a misdemeanor conviction becomes eligible for expungement. |
| Have you stayed free of any new criminal convictions since the case ended? | A new conviction after the case closed can disqualify someone from expungement eligibility in many jurisdictions, so this flags cases needing extra review. |
| Was the misdemeanor a domestic violence, sex, or DUI offense (these often have special rules or are not eligible)? | DUI, domestic violence, and sex offenses often carry waiting periods, exclusions, or extra filing requirements that change how the case should be scoped. |
| Do you know the state, court, and case number (or can you find them)? | Knowing the state, court, and case number lets the firm pull the actual record and confirm eligibility before ever booking a consultation. |
| Are you currently represented by a lawyer for this misdemeanor expungement matter? | A prospective client already represented by counsel on this matter is a lower-fit lead unless they're seeking a second opinion or a change of counsel. |

Built for misdemeanor expungement workflows
| Cliont capability | Misdemeanor Expungement application |
|---|---|
| Conditional branching | If a client answers that the conviction was a felony rather than a misdemeanor, the intake can be routed toward the felony expungement inquiry instead of consuming a misdemeanor consultation slot. |
| Weighted lead scoring | Case-closed status and staying conviction-free since the case ended carry the heaviest weights, so an unfinished sentence scores noticeably lower than a fully closed, clean case. |
| Lower-fit flagging | DUI, domestic violence, and sex-offense convictions are flagged apart from a standard misdemeanor so an attorney can check eligibility rules before offering time. |
| CRM routing | State, court, and case number captured during intake are sent straight into the CRM record so staff aren't tracking that information down by phone before the consultation. |
Common misdemeanor expungement lead scenarios
Clean, fully closed misdemeanor case
Sentence, probation, and fines are finished, no new convictions since, and the client already has the case number ready — the kind of lead that scores high and is ready for a consultation.
DUI or domestic violence flag
The underlying misdemeanor was a DUI or domestic violence offense, which the intake flags separately since many states carry extra waiting periods or exclusions for these convictions.
Case still on active probation
The client hasn't finished probation, fines, or required classes yet, so the case isn't eligible yet — the intake surfaces this before a consultation gets scheduled too early.
Prospect already has counsel
The person is currently represented by another attorney on this same matter, a lower-fit signal the intake surfaces so the firm can decide whether a referral conversation is worth having.

Misdemeanor Expungement lead-intake FAQs
Does the intake tell us if someone actually has a misdemeanor, not a felony?
Yes — one question directly asks whether the conviction was classified as a misdemeanor, so a felony conviction shows up as a lower-fit lead better suited to a felony expungement inquiry instead.
How does the intake handle DUI or domestic violence expungement requests?
These convictions are flagged as a separate signal because many states apply extra waiting periods or exclusions to them, so they're surfaced for attorney review rather than automatically scored as top priority.
What if the client's case isn't fully closed yet?
Unfinished probation, fines, or classes lower the lead's score, since most jurisdictions require the sentence to be fully served before expungement is even possible — the firm can still decide whether to follow up.
What happens if the prospective client already has a lawyer on this matter?
That's captured as a lower-fit answer so staff can quickly tell whether the enquiry is a genuine new client or a request better handled as a referral or second-opinion conversation.
What if they don't know their case number?
It's asked as a simple yes/no on whether they know or can find the state, court, and case number — not knowing it lowers the score slightly but doesn't disqualify the lead outright.
Can this same intake be reused for felony or drug-conviction expungement leads?
No — felony expungement and drug conviction expungement are separate subservices with their own qualification catalogs, since eligibility rules differ from a standard misdemeanor.
