Many parents want to know who can access their child's juvenile criminal records. Court records in a juvenile delinquency proceeding are only available to the juvenile, the juvenile's parents, an attorney of record, and the juvenile's guardian ad litem, as well as the probation department, the court, and any law enforcement agency in Colorado. However, disclosure of juvenile records may be allowed where a juvenile has committed an act that would be a crime of violence if committed by an adult.

But what a lot of people don't know is that juvenile convictions are counted as criminal history in future cases. They also remain on state criminal records databases and may affect a young person's ability to enter college, obtain employment, financial aid, a driver's license or join the military. 

However, Attorney Iyer, under certain circumstances, can help you get your child's record expunged, which means removed. A court may order all the records in a juvenile's case expunged if the court finds that the juvenile:
  1. has not been convicted of a felony or of a misdemeanor and has not been adjudicated a juvenile delinquent since the termination of the court's jurisdiction;
  2. no proceeding concerning a felony, misdemeanor, or delinquency action is pending or being instituted against the juvenile; and,
  3. the rehabilitation of the petitioner has been attained to the satisfaction of the court.
