When facing a misdemeanor, many will suggest the charges aren’t serious enough to justify the effort required to find a good criminal defense lawyer. However, this could not be further from the truth. A misdemeanor conviction can result in:

• A year in prison
• Parole
• Monetary fines in the thousands of dollars
• Probation for 1-5 years
• A suspended driver’s license
• A permanent mark on your criminal record

Those are very serious penalties that may lead to devastating long-term consequences. It is absolutely necessary to find the right defense attorney to help you fight your charges.
