How do I get a record like this when I have never been convicted of anything but traffic tickets?

William R. Pelger
Answered by attorney William R. Pelger
Criminal Law lawyer at Pelger Law
Sounds crazy but crazy things happen. What I would do is download form 164 from the PA State Police website, fill it out, and send it in to Harrisburg with a $10.00 money order. Follow the directions closely. Your criminal history, according to the PSP, will be mailed to you. You can then confirm if you were convicted of something or not. If it does list a conviction and you believe it is wrong, go to the county courthouse, order the file and see what the court papers say. If there appears to be a mistake, and you still believe you were not convicted, you will need to find a lawyer. The lawyer can then petition the court to correct this. This kind of case can take a lot of investigative work as it may involve obtaining old police reports and finding witnesses. You need the help of a lawyer. Also, there is the Innocence Project in Pittsburgh, but they may only deal with people wrongfully convicted of serious crimes like homicides and rapes.

Did they do an illegal search if my son was not home?

Kevin T. Ellmann
Answered by attorney Kevin T. Ellmann
Criminal Law lawyer at Ellmann & Ellmann, P.C.
Possibly. It depends upon whether someone with apparent authority or actual authority consented to the search. This is a legal standard that needs to be analyzed based upon the circumstances of law enforcements actions.

How to defend battery charges when the victim doesn't want to press charges?

Anabelle Dias
Answered by attorney Anabelle Dias
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Anabelle Dias P.A.
Law enforcement was correct. It is up to the state attorney's office to move forward at this point. If the State is unwilling to drop the battery charges against your wife I suggest she contacts an attorney and discuss the merits of her case with him or her. It is impossible to tell you how to "beat" the case as you say without reviewing the evidence against her and discuss any possible defenses she may have.

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
