Misdemeanor and Felony Offenses

Misdemeanor Offenses

Misdemeanor Crimes are typically less serious offenses that are normally punishable by probation or a short period of incarceration. Typical misdemeanors may include: traffic Violations, petty theft cases, assault and small drug possession cases. Although misdemeanors are less serious than felonies, a person convicted of a misdemeanor wil have a permanent record and possibly face a fine or jail time, so it is important to consult with an experienced lawyer.

Felony Offenses

Felony Crimes involve drug and narcotics charges, burglary, robbery, theft, fraud, homicide, aggravated assault, arson, kidnapping and sex crimes to name a few. A felony conviction is a serious matter that can result in a substantial state or federal prison sentence and the potential loss of certain privileges and Constitutional rights of U.S. citizenship, such as the right to possess a firearm or the right to vote.
