Can a criminal record affect your job? Well, it really depends on the type of arrest or the type of allegation made against you. It also depends on whether or not the allegations are considered serious, violent, or what's called a crime of moral turpitude.

Givelle Lamano: What happens when you are being investigated for a crime and you are worried about how it could affect your job? Specifically, what happens when your job involves having a professional license? This could be either in the healthcare industry, as a nurse, doctor, dentist, pharmacist. If you're in real estate, as an agent or a broker, or whether you work in finance as an accountant, or in academia as a professor, teacher, or even if you work for the local state, county, or city as a government employee. This also includes jobs in law enforcement or jobs in social services.
Givelle Lamano: The question is, can a criminal record affect your job and your professional license? The answer is that it really depends on the type of arrest or allegations that are made against you. Whether they are considered serious or violent, or if they're considered crimes of moral turpitude. Innocent people are often accused of things they do not do and sometimes people do bad things, but we don't know the entire story. The facts in the police report, whether you are found guilty of the charges, whether they get dismissed, and if you are found guilty, what you were found guilty of along with the sentence and punishment for your crime, these are things that are all be considered when authorities determine if you can keep your professional license and have the ability to keep your livelihood.
Givelle Lamano: Very often, when a person is investigated for a crime, assuming that there are facts to support that crime, a complaint is filed by the district attorney's office. People then hire an attorney to either get the charges dismissed or negotiate a settlement for conviction of a less harsh crime that doesn't affect your professional license and work situation.
Givelle Lamano: What are some of the benefits of hiring an attorney? Most of the benefits include protection. Protection for your license being revoked, protection for your license being suspended and keeping your job while the case is in court, and when the case settles. This also involves having a trusted professional hold your hand throughout the process, so you're not going into courts or the administrative hearings for your license blindly, and have a strategy to protect yourself, your liberty and your job.
