Can you have felony charges expungement in the state of VA?
To request the expungement of an offense from your STATE (not Federal) criminal record: You must have either been exonerated, acquited, or served the complete term of your sentence - then file a petition/motion with the court setting forth valid reason(s) why your request should be granted. A judge will review your petition and the circumstances of your case and issue a ruling either granting or denying the request. AN EXPUNGEMENT IS NOT A PARDON! Expungement only removes the record of your offense from being available to the public. Law enforcement, the courts, and government agencies will always have access to your actual 'true' record. FELONS CONVICTED IN STATE COURT OF STATE CRIMES: If your request for expungement is granted and you are a resident of a state which completely or partially restores your "rights" (you will have to do your own esearch to learn if this applies to your state), you will still remain subject to any restrictions that your state laws place on you (e.g.- voting rights - elective office - firearms/ammunition possession - etc). FEDERALLY CONVICTED FELONS - CAUTION: Regardless of what rights your state may restore, if you were convicted in FEDERAL COURT of a FEDERAL FELONY - it is a felony crime for a federally convicted felon to EVER own or possess a firearm. The U.S. Criminal Code, makes the penalty for illegal possession of a firearm a mandatory minimum of fifteen (15) years in prison in some cases (Title 18 U.S.C. sec 924(e)(1). At this time FEDERALLY convicted felons have no solution to their firearm disqualification. Congress has effectively eliminated the review of federally convicted felons' petitions for restoration of their firearms privileges, by denying funding for the purpose.

Are there agencies that help convicted felons in Virginia find work?
Actually as long as the felon is applying for a job that is not related to the crime that he/she is guilty of then there are laws to protect him or her from being discriminated against. There are a few states with these protective laws and Wisconsin happens to be one of them. It's called the Wisconsin Fair Employment Act. The law states that any person applying for a position has to be given equal chance unless the employer can prove in a court of law that the said job is related to the crime he/she was punished for. And if the employer does the applicant just has to go to this organization called the Department of workforce Development and tell them his/her case and they will decide if action is warranted. There are several cases where this has helped a felon gain employment.
