you have to pay a laywer fat cash. and even then if you get in trouble again the can still pull them back up to use against you. it is good for things like jobs and grants for school and stuff though so it might be worth the money.

This depends on several things, the most significant being your jurisdiction. Each state handles these things differently, so you're going to need to look at the laws of your particular state.
It also matters what you did. Murder is going to be hard to escape. So are drug convictions. White-collar felonies are probably a bit easier to have expunged, but again, it depends on your state.
For states that do allow the expunging of records - and not all states do, e.g. Texas - you generally have to maintain a squeaky clean record for a number of years after your conviction and/or release from prison. One of the above answerers is correct in that if you can somehow manage to get a pardon, it should be easy, but pardons are rarely given and only under special circumstances.

Ok let's talk about this. Unfortunetly it is virtually impossible for the felony conviction to be permenatley erased. You can apply for restoration of rights which will get you your voting rights back but you will never be able to own a firearm. You can try and apply for expunging it but you will always have the felony conviction avaliable for law enforcement to view but you won't need to tell an employer.

You can petition the court to have your record expunged, however you must have a number of years without an arrest or conviction and a good reason to have it done. Judges do expunge records but very rarely, you could petition the Governor of your state for a pardon if you have a good reason, you should know that even if a record is expunged the police will still have access to it.
