Can I Expunge A Felony When I Was Found Not Guilty?

Card image cap

When I was 18 I was accused of drug manufacturing which came with a manufacturing charge and a 2 way communications device charge, both felonies. My parents hired a lawyer for me and I was found not guilty and the charges were dropped and the case was closed. Now its 2025 and I am very close to finishing my senior year in college, and it is time for me to start applying for jobs.

If there are any experts out there in the state of florida, do you think I meet the eligibility requirements to have my case with these two charges expunged? They were both dropped. I had one conviction as a juvenile which was automatically expunged, but from the research ive done this shouldnt effect my eiligibility?

I am contacting my lawyer who helped me get these charges nolle prosequi for me tomorrow. Mainly looking for some peace of mind and understanding before I speak with him then. I think I remember him offering my parents the opportunity to expunge but it was a large extra fee.

Thanks in advance for anyones comments or advice.
