What types of cases does your firm handle?

If I'm convicted, can I end up in jail?
Without being able to evaluate your case fully, it is difficult to say. We would need to do a thorough review of the facts and evidence in your case to be able to make any type of determination. If you contact us, we will be happy to discuss your charges with you in our free consultation.
Can I get my charges dropped?
It is certainly possible, but it entirely depends on the facts in your case. We will do all that we can to get your charges dropped if at all possible.
Should I talk to the police if I'm arrested?
Saying anything to law enforcement is not recommended. Interrogators are allowed to lie to you during their questioning in order to get you to incriminate yourself in some way you may not even be aware of.
How serious is a misdemeanor charge?
A misdemeanor charge is one that is punishable by anything from court supervision up to 364 days in the county jail. Although a misdemeanor is less serious than a felony charge, the consequences can still be severe and result in jail time, community service, substantial fines and court fees in addition to a permanent mark on your record. You need an experienced attorney to defend you whether the charge is a misdemeanor or a felony.
