Yep, these are commonly sealed records and having worked with family law lawyers there are things that happened to the victims that should never be unsealed.

Even outside of family law there are many justifiable reasons for sealing and even expunging (deletion) of records. Iām a believer that under the correct circumstances criminal records should be sealed & even in some cases expunged as well. People deserve a second chance.
Family law is just the most obvious and unarguable example.
