This will be the 3rd annual event hosted by Katie Blakeman, the Champaign County Circuit Clerk. According to the Circuit Clerk website, this event “is designed to provide free legal assistance to those who wish to clear their criminal records. Participants meet with volunteer attorneys who review their criminal history, advise them on what remedies they may apply for, and help prepare petitions. Qualified petitions are able to be filed for free on-site.”
