San Diego Misdemeanor Defense Attorney
Criminal Defense Lawyer Serving San Diego County
Although misdemeanors are lesser offenses than felonies, a conviction can still have a major impact on your life. A defendant convicted of a misdemeanor in California may face imprisonment in county jail for up to 12 months, fines, probation, community service, driver's license suspension, and a number of other penalties. Additionally, certain offenses which are usually charged as misdemeanors may be charged as felonies in certain circumstances (such as when a weapon is involved or for multiple offenders.)
As such, you never know what criminal penalties and other consequences may come with being charged with a misdemeanor. It is important to work with an experienced criminal defense attorney so you can learn about your options and so your constitutional rights will be protected to the full extent of the law. Misdemeanors may be less serious than felonies, but they can still result in imprisonment and can negatively impact your employment opportunities and your ability to obtain professional licenses or certain loans.
