The Miami Criminal Attorney Is Ready To Help Today
The list of misdemeanors could go on for days. In the state of Florida, misdemeanors can be punished by time in county jail for up to 1 year, 1 year of probation, and a fine of up to $1,000.
Even though jail time is applicable in misdemeanor cases, a good attorney can have that sentenced exchanged for probation. If you are facing a misdemeanor criminal case in the Miami area, contact the Miami criminal attorney today.
It is important for people to be aware of the fact that a misdemeanor conviction will become a matter of public criminal record. This criminal record could result in the loss of educational opportunities and the loss of future employment, especially for juvenile defendants and those convicted of drug crimes.
Don’t face these life consequences alone. No matter what type of misdemeanor you are facing, the Miami criminal attorney can represent you to help you receive as little punishment as possible at trial, and perhaps no trial at all. It is not uncommon for some misdemeanor cases to be dismissed shortly after a lawyer is appointed.
