Criminal Offenses
Criminal offenses are very serious and can have long-range
adverse affects on a person’s life even after the person has "served his debt to
society". Criminal offenses can carry the possibility of incarceration in either
the county jail or the State prison.
We specialize in the aggressive defense
of criminal cases and can assist you in obtaining a favorable result.
Besides prison and jail time, criminal offenses also carry
the possibility of probation, community service, fines and costs. Further, many
criminal offenses have mandatory minimum jail and/or prison sentences. Some
offenses have penalties beyond jail and prison, such as:
1. Criminal Sexual Conduct requires
registration on the Sex Offender Registry for a minimum of 25 years.
2. Drug convictions result in suspension of your
driving privileges.
3. Drug offenses also carry the possibility of the
forfeiture of property, money or vehicles associated with or connected
to the drug transaction.
4. The penalties for subsequent drug offenses can
be doubled if there is a prior drug conviction.
5. Alcohol offenses can have long-term adverse
consequences for your driving privileges and automobile insurance rates.
6. Some alcohol offenses carry the possibility of
vehicle immobilization and/or vehicle forfeiture.
7. Traffic offenses, even civil infractions, can
have adverse consequences for your driving privileges.
In addition, certain criminal offenses can have adverse
effects on your right to purchase and/or possess firearms, and to seek and
maintain certain types of employment.
