I'm a recovering drug addict and I have a felony on my record. Luckily, mine is not guilty. It does interfere with gaining employment. I'm getting mine expunged off of my record the second I save up enough money. Then I plan to go back to school and get a really good job. Its been two years though. It was a scary time that I did not expect or have any idea why I was being charged. So I can completely relate. I'm glad it worked so good for you. I would imagine you were rather surprised!
