Anyone charged with a criminal offense has the right to be represented by an attorney. In fact, this right is so important that it is guaranteed by both the State and Federal Constitution.
There are two categories of criminal offenses—Misdemeanors and Felonies. At the State level, misdemeanors carry a punishment of up to 1 year in the County jail and/or a fine of up to $1,000.
The punishment on a felony ranges from one year to life in prison to the death penalty.
To prepare your defense, it is important for you to know the elements of the offense, the legal defense which may apply, and the procedure of the criminal justice system. This will be explained to you at your free initial consultation.
