The most important thing to keep in mind if you are facing a criminal law charge is that you have the right to remain silent and you should exercise that right. You should also retain legal counsel as soon as possible to protect your rights!
If you have never faced criminal charges before, you may not be aware of the legalities of the criminal process and the repercussions that you may face. We can help you understand the charges filed against you, your available defenses, the plea bargains offered, and the penalties and fines you may expect if you are convicted.
Crimes are divided into two classes of misdemeanors and felonies. Misdemeanor offenses are not as serious as felony offenses. Felonies comprise the most serious criminal offenses. A felony conviction can result in prison terms of more than a year, lengthy probation, and immense fines.
