FAQs Related to Criminal Defense Cases

Q

What Is the Difference Between a Misdemeanor and a Felony Charge?

Although misdemeanors are typically considered minor offenses, the consequences of a conviction could still be significant. You could face fines and a sentence of up to 10 years in jail. Other potential penalties include losing your driver's license or professional license, losing a government job, and losing your eligibility to run for public office.

Felonies are serious crimes; a felony conviction can result in jail time ranging from over a year to a lifetime of imprisonment. Having a felony conviction on your record can seriously limit your future opportunities.

Q

Should I Take a Plea Ceal Before Consulting With a Lawyer?

Sometimes, plea bargains are the best way to resolve your case. However, accepting a deal before talking to a qualified attorney could mean you do not get the best possible terms. When we negotiate on your behalf, we ensure that the deal you are offered protects your best interests.
