Arrest Record Deletion with the UK’s Most Trusted Lawyers

Wipe Your Arrest Record Legally and Permanently

At Legisia, we focus on situations where the law and basic fairness support deletion of your record. We can review your papers and tell you honestly whether a deletion application is realistically worth pursuing.

1. Arrests That Ended in No Further Action (NFA)
   We show that a closed investigation serves no ongoing policing purpose and use the NPCC process to seek deletion from the PNC and linked local systems.
2. Arrests Where the Case Was Dropped Later
   Whether charges were withdrawn or you were acquitted, we analyse the case outcome and argue that continued retention is misleading, unnecessary and disproportionate.
3. Arrests Based on False, Malicious, or Unfounded Allegations
   We treat these like trial work: gathering statements, documents and timelines to demonstrate the allegation was baseless, then press for full deletion of the arrest record.
4. Arrests That Were Unlawful or Procedurally Flawed
   Where there were no proper grounds or the arrest was unnecessary, we highlight PACE breaches and unfairness to build a strong case that the record should never have been kept.
5. Arrest Records Where Retention Is Unfair or Disproportionate
   We rely on career impact, time since the incident and rehabilitation to argue that keeping the record breaches data protection, privacy and wider public interest principles.
