I have a question and I will try to make this short as possible. I got arrested for a misdemeanor assault charge this past december and luckily with a good attorney I am getting it dismissed. My mom and I had a fall out and I was at the wrong place at the wrong time.. I do have a attorney but thought I would ask on here because for some reason I don't really like calling her.. sounds weird but I guess I am. Anyways, I know I can get it expunged in 2 years because that is what she told me but I will need a lawyer... can anyone tell me if it is a good thing that I am getting this dismissed and how will this be good for me for jobs? I mean I won't have a conviction so that is the best thing right? I just have been worrying so much and need some answers. If they do pull something up for a background check and it does show an arrest, what will the arrest include? Will it say what it was for or just that I was arrested.. I am obsessing over this so much so please positive answers.. Thanks

If this will be espunged it will not show up when HR or whomever does a background check. Until it is espunged it will show up that the case was dismissed which will work in your favor, BUT also depends what the misdemeanor was. Assault? Theft? Employer's rarely like to take a chance with those individuals. Lastly, you shouldn't be afraid to ask your attorney these questions. What she is there for.
