A criminal record could adversely affect you for life. It is prudent to have legal representation from the time of arrest or police investigation through the final court disposition.

Being interviewed by the police without counsel or appearing in court unrepresented can result in an unnecessary and unfavorable disposition of your case.

Crimes are divided into two general categories: misdemeanors and felonies. Misdemeanors have a one-year maximum jail sentence. Felonies are deemed much more serious than misdemeanors. Felonies carry jail sentences in excess of one year.

If you are convicted of any crime, you may be sentenced to fines, community service, imprisonment or other penalties. Licenses and employment of several types may be terminated or forfeited. Call for a FREE consultation today.
