Criminal Defense

Even a conviction on a simple misdemeanor charge can cost you a great deal. You may face fines, time in jail, revocation of your driver’s license, community service and other consequences such as being required to install a Breathalyzer in your car at your own expense and pay monthly monitoring fees. That’s just the legal side.

On a more personal level, a criminal conviction could also force you to choose a new career, make it difficult to find new employment or even prevent you from being able to live where you want to live. These types of personal consequences often last for far longer than the maximum sentence allowed for the crime itself, thanks in large part to the easy access to criminal records made possible by the Internet.
