Types of Misdemeanor Crimes I Defend Against

While it may be tempting to simply pay the fine and suffer the consequences, misdemeanors are serious crimes that deserve attention. My clients trust me to help them tell their side of the story and stand strong in defense of their rights. Prosecutors will do whatever they have to in order to secure a conviction and have you suffer the full weight of criminal consequences. Oftentimes, having a misdemeanor on your record will make it harder to obtain employment, housing, and opportunities for loans. As your advocate, I will examine all the evidence and charges against you and check for errors.

Call Lail Law Firm, PLLC if you were charged with any misdemeanor crime, including:

• Traffic offenses
• Assault without serious bodily injury
• Theft crimes
• Drug crimes
• Weapons crimes

You are to be presumed innocent until proven guilty. In cases of less serious crimes such as misdemeanors, having an attorney to stand up against prosecutors and ensure law enforcement acted in a lawful manner can be crucial to the outcome of your case.

How Long Does a Misdemeanor Stay on Your Record in Florida?

A misdemeanor conviction will stay on your record forever. Misdemeanors and felony convictions will stay on your record for life. For the misdemeanor to no longer be seen on your record, you must get the misdemeanor sealed or expunged.
